I am 2 days shy of being banded for a week now. I read the boards on how most ppl is going out and being active just a few days after their banding. I realize everybodys body is different and we all react different ways. Should I be concerned that I have been getting nauseous still? I am rarely hungry and just feel so sick to my stomach. I have been taking the pills I was given. It just concerns me why I am taking so long to heal. Am I just being a baby or is this common for some ppl? I am seeing my doctor tomorrow for my post op visit.

You're fine. My nausea lasted for a month. I carried around a bottle of Emetrol every where I went. It's a cherry flavored liquid and CVS has their own brand. I think its only about 4 bucks. Works almost instantly!

I am 6 days post op and first day back at work. I still have a nauscious (spelling?) tinge in the bottom of my stomach but I haven't actually thrown up in a day and a half. I just have an over all feeling of lathargy which is actually getting a bit better as I am forcing myself to drink ALL of my Protein drinks. Have you been drinking all of your Protein shakes and hitting your Protein number? I am finding that my nausea is actually abading as I am consuming more. I get to go to mushies tonight I am sooo ready I think I am going to eat some Grits! Good luck with your journey!

In general, when I'm overly hungry I get nauseated. Even if your brain and tummy say "I'm not hungry" if your'e not getting enough nutrition, your body will say otherwise.

Good Luck on your Journey :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
