You got this! Leave all your worries behind and focus on a healthier you ;-)

Sometimes when I eat I get a severe pain in my chest. Does that mean I swallowed too much? Amyone else have this problem?

Girls!!! I lost 6.2 lbs since I went to the doc yesterday!! I wonder if going poop helped??

I'm seriously tired. Absolutely no energy. I can get maybe 2 ounces of shake or yogurt in. Or 3 ounces cream soup. I'm pushing n pushing my water but it's never enough. I'm not trying to be a whiner but I'm pretty miserable.

Girl, you need to call your doctor! :(

I am out of surgery and finally awake enough (kinda) to post an update! Surgery took a couple hours. My surgeon said that my liver shrank very well and that surgery went great! And no hiatal hernia!!! I have 5 lap sites. I have some aching pain in my belly, but the IV pain meds are working pretty well. The worst part is my mouth and throat are EXTREMELY dry and a little sore. I am allowed ice chips, but I have found that I can get too much for my tummy to take! I'm nodding in and out from exhaustion. I didn't sleep well the past 2 nights. Thank all of you that sent prayers and good vibes!

Welcome to the losers bench Lindsey!! Get some rest!! Congratulations! After surgery my mouth was so dry and I couldn't have anything but they did let me use mouth swabs. Didn't take the dryness completely away but it helped!

1 week post op and back to work today. YAY!!!! I was getting cabin fever. Also started pureed foods today and. They taste sooo good

How was your first day back? Although I am tired of being inside the house I am a little nervous to go back to work next Monday! I feel fine but I get tired easily! I also worry about getting all my water in while working

I feel you! I been working on this shake since 1pm after about 3 sips I feel like it's bubbling back up and I can't drink anymore !! Water is doing same thing . I was able to eat my calcium chew though. My doc gave me all pill form meds which sucks I feel like they get stuck. I'm pretty miserable 5 days out too. Doc said I'm just going the slower route.. Yay me :(

I went back to work on Monday full time teaching and it went well. Though it's harder to remember to get my liquids in

Hi everyone, I am Angie and I had my surgery 2/11. I was pretty miserable until like 6 days after it, getting rid of the gas was so hard. I have a question, everything I have makes me burp right away. I sip water, protein shake, soup and all is the same. Is this normal?? Also I lost 17lbs but nothing in the last 3 days and that freaks me out. I am so glad I found this app, thanks

I felt fine. I have a desk job but after lunch got tired and bloated I ended going home about an hour and a half early. Being in dress pants was the most uncomfortable. Thank goodness for a longer shirt and a private office. I ended up unbuckling my pants after lunch:)

Angie. I had my sleeve 2-17. I have the same problem. Sometimes the bubble in my chest hirts so bad! I rhink it will get better

I get weird like, spasm type feeling sometimes after I drink or have a bite of yogurt/pudding. I don't know of its cause in full (cause I get them sometimes when I know I'm not hungry cause I haven't had anything in a long time) or because I'm hungry, or its just what happens. The feeling is like my stomach is spasming up towards my esophagus. But I also get it when it'll happen and half way through it it turns into a burp. So weird.

I called my doc about my weird pains last night. Said it's probably normal, from my incisions healing and stuff. Told me to take pain meds if it hurts. I assumed it was normal, glad it is.

I'm seriously tired. Absolutely no energy. I can get maybe 2 ounces of shake or yogurt in. Or 3 ounces cream soup. I'm pushing n pushing my water but it's never enough. I'm not trying to be a whiner but I'm pretty miserable.

I hope you feel better soon. Things will get better, you're in my thoughts and prayers.
