Laurie, I too am 5 wks 2 days. I was just queasy with my choc Protein Shake about 15 min ago. Fortunately, mine doesn't stay all the time. I had to stop my shake which will be continued later. Funny how surreal surgery was. There was some discomfort but had none of the extreme nausea and discomfort experienced by some. Then 3 wks out I got gas so bad I could hardly move or breathe. It lasted about 4 days and I was so sore. Now I am starting to have nausea as of yesterday. When I lie down at night the hormones get started and I have flashes all night with the perspiration all over. I am sorry that you are having such problems. I hope it gets better soon. If you have nausea Meds from your surgeon, dont hesitate to take it; if not call the Surgeon's office and tell them your problem. They can help you while you get over this hurdle. I'm sure that when we reach goal it will all be worth it. Hold on, better days are coming.

Thanks Ann, I get very frustrated that others are doing so well and I am not. Hope you feel better soon too.

I went to copy something from my last post but edited/deleted my post by mistake :(. Just wanted to update to say I turned a corner the next day, am feeling so much better these past few days! I've managed to walk 3 miles/day and meet my Protein & Water reqs. I think the eating every 3 hours made the difference.

I hope you are doing better Laurie?

I've been feeling very tired and light headed when I stand up. My Dr said I wasn't getting enough Water. I upped my water to 64oz and my Protein is about 90 gms. Still feel like crap. What gives?

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
