I absolutely regret having this surgery

Sure there are known benefits to having this surgery but I must admit it's not a solution for everybody-and had I known I'd spend my days sick to my stomach at the very thought/smell of food I would have never opted for the surgery...I'm 3 weeks post op and miserable...I can't keep anything down, I'm dehydrated all the time...I can only take 1 bite of any sort of food I attempt to eat...I'm nauseated every single day...I just hate it guys...and I don't mean to be discouraging but I look to these forums to vent my frustration...I've lost about 30 lbs since my surgery date (12/28/15) and that's awesome but the overall feeling I have everyday just sucks...I'm not sure the nausea and vomiting will go away...does anyone else have these ill feelings?

I am so sorry you are feeling so ill. Definitely ask for help... my doctor gave me this super duper NEXIUM powder that kept me from feeling so sick. The first month is the worst, but you'll always have to be careful how much you eat.

Be patient, and keep getting on the scale. Every day is a pleasant surprise.. that's why you did this, right??? Good luck.
