    when were you sleeved?
    I don’t live in the states, we don’t have SF gatorade or crystal lite where I live but I shall look for substitutes. I don’t experience the chest tightness when i’m full, I just start to feel a bit nauseated and that’s when I stop. but when i think about it, it seems like I can have a few more bites of food so i’m thinking this may not really be my cue to stop... i’m too scared to find out though haha.

    Can I just suck on a vegetable or something!?! Lmao this is unnatural 😂

    We’ll survive girls! Glad I found this forum. I’m in some FB groups and some people are rude and judgmental. Well I’ve taken my pain meds and I’m going to try and rest. Hope tomorrow is a pain free day, for all of us. ♥️ goodnight.

    Question?
    Anyone have horrible breath after surgery??? I’m brushing way more than I normally would. Is it lack of Water?

    Hi everyone! I’m trying to catch up on everyone’s posts. I’m on page 39 now. I was sleeved on nov 27 and am still really tired. I’m also super sad and not sure why. I’m questioning why I did this to myself.

    I had the same thing with the burps. It got better after a few days. I even vomited in the hospital, which made me pee all over my bed and myself. That was fun calling the nurse for. Just keep an eye out. Do the breathing exercise. It will pass!

    I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! I officially started my puree stage today (I'm 2 weeks post op) so I get to kind of enjoy Thanksgiving a bit, and I'm grateful for that. I hope everyone, no matter what stage/phase/status you are, enjoy your family, friends, pets, whatever!

    No you will NOT DIE! I have had anesthesia probably 10 times in 5 years, I'm 72, if it was going to "do somebody in", I'm a much stronger candidate than you'll ever be. And it's so much nicer, easier and doesn't leave you sick enough to pray for death like the Bad Old Days did! Been there, done that and had it done to ME.My RNY anesthesia was SMOOTH, first I had the coolest A, his name was Dave, my surgeon brought all the main players to my room for an introduction, real benefit to being 1st surgery of the Day. Think before I was taken back, while he was patting my hand he might have slipped some Happy juice in my IV. At any rate I rode like Queen ElIzabethII IN her Golden State Carriage up to the O.R. Super warm, super comfy. Now I had heard horror stories about how the room is cold-Nope, how they make you transfer to the table, stretch your arms out like you're being crucified before you go to sleep-Nope, treat you like you're a piece of meat-Nope. Let me share how it was for me, okay? First I felt totally like I was a Rock 🌟 star, everybody was there for ME. My surgeon had joked he would wave at me, see I was operated upon at Ohio State University, a teaching hospital , many people fear they will end up in the quaking hands of a student. So Dr Needleman😷 waved from his position maybe 8 feet away. I was not abandoned in that big room with all strangers! I slid myself over on the table, they offered their help but this was something. Frustr8 could DO. And this was the 1st operating table I fit on, always feared falling off into the floor. Dave made sure I was nicely tucked in, didn't feel claustrophobic, just incredibly comforted. Then Dave, gosh he had the prettiest 👀 eyes, even with a 😷mask! He said. OK,Are you comfortable? I said, "why yes I believe I am", next thing I knew I was in my patient room, feeling so good I had to lift my gown and make sure they HAD DONE SURGERY ON ME!
    And I bet yours wIll be just as fine. So no panic, fears or tears, You gonna be Just Fine!😝😎😝
