Recommended Posts

Not to good.

Ate about 1/4 of a cup of soup' date=' yogurt and pudding for lunch. (All together 1/4 cup)

Ate about 1/8 cup of yogurt for dinner.< /p>

Just keeping the Water in my hand all the time.

Not feeling to good.

The hospital had living on water and Jello since Monday, so its been pure hell and I wish I could turn back time.

Also on 2 meds, 3 times a day, which make me want to puke.

Praying for you Rem, get through this rough and remember why you decided to have the surgery. I'm sure they will get you headed down the right road soon. I will keep you in my prayers. Keep us updated.

Hey hate to hear of your struggles!! Please know your not alone; alot of your story sounds like mine!! I to have had some major issues , with BP and I'm 12 days out and I'm still dealing with severe nausea every morning and it last thru the day alot of time; I wake up with acid reflux from the Vitamins , I've been getting all my liquids and Protein and vitamins in thank The Lord , but I think because of the lack of solid foods and taking 3 BP pills a day and a thyroid pill and a pain med, it's all to much for my new tummy!!

I to felt deep regret on the 4-5 day, was very emotional , but please hang in there and it's by no means easy now but it is better with each day!!

I feel bad for any of our April peeps who are having a rough time! I know when we go into surgery we never think we will be the one who gets the complications. Just know that we are hear to listen and offer support for you, so you are not alone. It WILL get better!

You all are in my thoughts and prayers. I am new to the forum and I had Revision surgery April 25 (lap band to bypass). It is a struggle but the reward will be great.

Question?? Has anybody tryed pop after surgery

I guess I will tell on myself and admit I've had a few sips. I haven't allowed myself to bring it in my house and its just been sips. It burned alot and made me feel uncomfortable.

I haven't tried pop but was out the other day and completely spaced the no straws thing all the way thru dinner. It didn't bother me at all, no gas or anything.

I have done caffeine free soda... But I let it get flat before trying it! My parents drink soda more often but they waited until almost a year before drinking it unflat!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
