You had the sleeve yesterday? Cut yourself some slack. It will get better. I haven't had any of the "usual" problems but maybe I am unusual. No pain, no dumping, no vomiting, did I mention NO PAIN. Just hang in there, it will get better!

It is just the anesthesia....it will go away. Some have it worse than others. I didn't have any nausea...and just lucky I guess. If you had your surgery yesterday, you haven't eaten yet so the nausea is due to the anesthesia.

I was sleeved yesterday also and did not get nausea until I tried sipping a Protein Shake then a bit after some chicken purée :( . My pain is manageable and I'm just looking forward to heal all my otter wounds so then I just have to concentrate in my inner healing. Best of luck to everyone!!!

You will get better. I didn't eat for 24 hours. I wanted to give my stomach a rest. Don't push it. It will get better on its own. It is so swollen from the surgery it is in rebellion! Good Luck! By the way, you will lose about a pound a day for the first month. Let that be your soothing thought for the day! YeHaaw!

I was sleeved on 11/5 the first day was a breeze, one of my nurses had the surgery, she gave me excellent advice, the second and third day would be the roughest. Funny thing is it seems to be true. I realized trying to get in all my fluids so I could be discharged caused me to vomit because I was rushing, now I'm more aware of my new tool. It will get better

Im actually doing pretty good. Today has been my best day. I am able to drink alot more, diff things too without nausea. I can bend and do pretty much everything myself at this point. I just try and take it slow when i drink to prevent vomiting and so far so good. Remember its hasnt even been a week yet, so give your body the time it needs:)

I'm trying everything slowly. I had a really bad time in hospital. First my iv infiltrated and my left arm was all swollen and red. Then i had an allergic reaction to one of the meds given to me. The right side of my face now has raised red whelps between my forehead and my earlobe. And because i received about 4 new meds that I've never had before i don't know which one caused it. i moved around a little better today. I go Wednesday to have the drain tube removed from my left side. Hopefully i will feel better after that.

      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!!
