I was sleeved July 21 and am having a really hard time the last few days. I have been an emotional wreck. Having a hard time with everything. I have no appetite and could care less if I eat or not and everything I put in my mouth makes me want to gag and vomit. Protein has been impossible for me to handle because the smell of it makes me want to hurl my toe nails up. The only thing that I have been able to tolerate is soft serve frozen yogurt and cottage cheese and sonic ice chips with lime. After I eat anything I feel as if I am having a major anxiety attack. I get all sweaty with a heavy feeling in my chest and stomach and feel like I can't breath. Is this normal or am I really going crazy??

No I don't think you are crazy! You might want to put in a call to your NUT or doctor and talk it over with them!

Praying you feel better soon!

If you are having an anxiety attack you're not going crazy! I would go see my surgeon and make sure a leak has not formed God Bless!!!

of course you're not crazy! speak to your doctor, that's what they're there for and that's why they get all that money! :) if it's an anxiety attack, you will feel better after speaking to the doc. if it's not, they will help you figure it out. when i became diabetic, i realized that to me, low blood sugar feels a lot like an anxiety attack, so don't feel like you're being a pain if you go to your doctor.

let us know how you feel later!

Talk to doc.... But remember it's NORMAL to have emotional issues .... So much is happening to you. I too am somewhat depressed, and I'm so glad you have us to talk to. I see a psychiatrist regularly and she is monitoring me closely. So much can change with meds and weight loss. Just remember you did this for YOU. And you have understanding friends here !!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
