any advise?

Hi springerboy. Welcome! I am pretty new on here as well. I am also 3 days post OP and i too feel like crap! When I'm awake and can walk around, it's for a short period of time and then I'm ready to take some vicodin and pass out again. Any suggestions would help me as well.

paul thanks that what I'm hoping.

Thank you so much! I just feel like all i do is lay around. I guess thats about I'm expected to be able to do considering i just had major surgery. Thanks for your support! It really helps to talk to People who can actually relate to you because they have been through it.

No questions to personal you would be surprised at the questions ask here and they all have to do with what we are all going though.

WLS is a life changer and will do some strange stuff to your body ( All for the good)

You are both doing exactly what you should be doing..nothing!! As long as you drink and get up and walk around for a bit every hour or so, your doing good! To be honest I felt like crap (exhausted) for up to 8 weeks!! I had all I could do to get out of my own way!! It will get better trust me! For now remember, your body has and is going through some major changes!!!

I'm 5 days out. I am having a hard time with Water. Anyone else have that? I actually like the taste of water but it hurts when I swallow it even in small sips. I can drink sf lemonade and Vitamin water zero but not plain water. Anyone else have that and did it get better?

Wow That is so amazing day 3 for me was hell

I had stiffness and pain and then it was gone

Today is another bad day over did it now my stomach is sore

And I think acid is more

I'm about two weeks out and I thought something was wrong because I love water but I would keep getting a pain in the center of my chest when I would drink it. So I see it's not just me. So for fear of becoming dehydrated I started eating shaved ice yesterday along with my crystal light drinks. Never did I imagine it being so hard to get down one 16 oz drink! Oh something else that helped in that first week was letting my water get to room temp.

Yes protein has been a big factor for me also...I try to drink the shakes but it's hard to get them down just like the Water.

Welcome to the group. You will be good in no time.

Does anyone know if i can eat oodles n noodles soup? I thought about it but it has tons of sodium in it so im not sure. What about just the juice?
