I went to the er last Saturday they were rude said I wasn't dehydrated enough. Waste of my time. My surgeons office called me and said that was weird that they didn't call the dr on call to confirm I was a sleeve patient. I'm now going to an infusion center as instructed by my surgeons nurse tmrw because I can't get anything in☹️

I had surgery on 8/4 and only family that knows is my husband, sister, mom, dad, & my cousin. That's only because the same as you I was too criticized all the time of being overweight/obese. Say stuff like you would be prettier, if only you were skinny, etc...my aunt asked me the other day she saw me if I had lap band done. I got pissed because she does not like me. She asked all these questions- I stopped her and said I was just watching what I eat better. That's why I did it. So judge mental and just I don't know. She proceeded to tell me she couldn't believe I lost weight and blah blah blah. Family can be destructive to you. You know if it's better to tell them or not.

The stall is normal so don't worry about that. It will pass.
As for the eating, my NUT also wanted me eating a small meal every 2 hours in the early days. I would get a note from your physician saying that you need to eat every 2 hours at this time due to a medical condition for work or get a note that allows you to keep a Protein Shake on you and drink that at work . As for school maybe excuse yourself to use the restroom and have a snack you can eat in your purse/bag/pocket outside of the classroom. Something quick with lots of Protein. I'm not sure where you are in your diet progression but nuts, beef Jerky, cheese and Protein Bars are all good options.

You may be sick of them now, but Protein Shakes are also an option. I am also in class/ labs and the Protein Shake has been a life saver bc they don't req refrigeration and you are not technically "eating" in class... Good luck to you!

Oh great! Thanks. I go next week for check up so I will ask for that. I just feel I guess guilty that I ask a lot from my job. They already work with me for school and I was out an extra week of recovery due to being in the er and admitted after surgery. I will definitely ask the dr about the note though. Thank you!

I am still on the 2 week after surgery all liquids diet then I can have diced food and so on. I been moody lately. More today than ever. Feel almost like maybe depressed. I look at my stitches healing and hate seeing them. Feel like a monster. It's in my head mostly. On top of that I had to go to the er last night because I felt dehydrated-ended up just getting meds for nausea. And they said try to drink more[emoji849]I'm supposed to try to get in 60g protein(liquids) and 64 oz fluids. I can't. I feel like even Water and Powerade zero all that stuff taste like gross🤢🤢🤢It's hard for me to get anything in because I feel full fast. I'm just struggling a lot. Don't crave food or water. Any suggestions? Advice?

Thank you guys so much. I'm glad I called. Hopefully next week once I start on diced foods it will get better. Praying for the best! I'm so glad I found this app! You guys are a blessing !

I called my surgeons office they are sending me to an infusion center for fluids [emoji20]
Hopefully this helps me and they gave me prescription for other nausea meds.

I got sleeve done 8/4 and about since Sunday I haven't been able to get in any Protein in. And Water maybe about 8-12 oz the most everyday. Since then I noticed I wake up nauseous and go to bed nauseous. Sometimes it's all day. I don't know if it's because I can smell food and I can't tolerate the smells any more-it just makes me want to throw up constantly. I even experienced gagging and almost throwing up but since my stomach is empty nothing ever comes out. It's horrible. I'm getting worried and scared. I don't know what to do. Water, Powerade zero, and even my Protein Powder shakes make me sick. I can't drink that much because I feel sick to my stomach. Seriously thinking about going to doctor today or tomorrow. I feel thirsty but get frustrated because if I try drinking fast I end up in stomach pain. I don't know what to do or if anyone has gone through this. I just want to feel normal again. It feels like torture with this nausea and constant feeling of wanting to throw up☹️

Hey just wanted to say I'm 28 I'm 5'2 and my highest weight was 334. I was scared for my life when my husband said I stopped breathing at night and lips were turning blue. I did a sleep study and had severe sleep apnea. It was really hard and emotional to realize how my health was starting to fall. I discussed with my husband about sleeve surgery and he supported me 100%. I told him I wanted to live longer and not be scared anymore. Day of surgery he and I were all over the place lol nerves. Emotions. Everything. We did have the talk about what I wanted if anything bad were to happen during surgery. It's very hard to talk about that stuff and also dealing with major surgery. But, in the end it's your life. Your choice. No one knows I had it done except for my mom, dad, sister, his cousin, and hubby. I'm now 1 week after surgery and I'm down to 296. You can do this if you want it! Just talk it over with your husband:)
