I had my gastric sleeve done on new year's eve 12/31. I haven't felt hunger but i know the half cup of jello that i have consumed in the time since is not sufficient. I have been focused on staying hydrated. Both are hard because im nauseated which causes dry heaving a lot. Im up to 10oz of water in an hour if i take my pain meds and my nausea pills which i can only do every 4hrs. I have one incision(ther one the stomach was pulled from) that's killer. Im trying to stay on top of this but i feel like I'm fighting a lot of battles at once. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Taco bell beans and cheese. Mostly carbs but i think im ok since all i have had the last 4 days was basically water. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

It's a fact that u burn muscle when you don't have enough calories. I know it hard but that a battle you don't want to have to deal with later. Good luck

Im literally bringing in the new year with a new me. I would love to connect with someone to share the journey with Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Remember surgery is a tool. This is the mental stuff that causes us to fail. Yes that's your mom but this is also your life. You took a huge step for your health don't let her vanity ignorance and jealousy derail you Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

All i could eat Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh wow im still on clear liquids until day 7 no protein. These doctors have a million different ways about how to go thru this process. Im off my pain meds. I constantly have the urge to gulp. I was a huge water chugger prior. But i am happy you're doing so well.

Today is day 4 and i was able to get down about 40oz of water and a half cup of broth. No nausea no vomiting very little pain. I guess i just had to give my stomach time to adjust to the change. Patience hasn't always been my biggest asset but i see that will need to change quickly. I actually woke up today feeling ok but i won't rush things and I'll trust that my body will do what it needs to in the time is deserves. You all are so wonderful and im so fortunate to be a part of this group.

Oh thank God i Hope that's true. Looking to Get over this hump soon.

Smithfield Michigan. I call mon for the time. Are you ready?

Definitely!!

Hello. Im new to the group. Im 4 days away from surgery and im starting to get cold feet. I lost almost 30lbs and i keep thinking to myself i did that i can do the rest without surgery. I did my research and i know what I'm about to do is life changing and that's the scary part. Im on my 2 wk preop(during the holidays mind you) and i already see how different my social life will be😥

Oh love you are a mountain! So strong. You have put my fears in perspective and i realize even tho it's normal this to shall pass. Thank you for your words of encouragement. I will keep you in my prayers.

Oh my that's wonderful!!! Do you mind if i keep in touch since we are surgery twins? Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you. I currently also have hbp and a heart condition that is being aggravated by my weight. I don't "need" to lose more for surgery but i may because i have 3 days left on my pre op diet. Im just really nervous mainly because i don't want to let myself down if i slip up after. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Congrats! My surgery is scheduled for the 31st. I did my pre op blood work and chest x-ray today. I slip up on my liquid diet in day 4. I had a sausage pattie but since then i have been good. I have already lost close to 30lbs since starting my journey. So i feel i have a strong A- lol Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app
