@@GoldenLife1991 I don't think it's uncommon. What are they saying in the hospital?? Are they giving you anti-nausea meds? Did they do a leak test yet? We don't get discharged the next day regardless - have to stay 2 nights. Hope you feel better soon!

I wasn't even allowed to attempt to sip Water until 24hrs after my surgery. and even then only a tiny sip and wait a bit, then another tiny sip etc. And it was hard - definitely felt a tightness in my chest with each sip. I did get some iv nausea meds because while I didn't vomit, I did feel quite queasy as the anesthesia was working its way out of my system. Then the the morning of the second day before I was discharged I took an oral antinausea med because I had another brief bout of nausea.



Have you discussed your concern with any of the nurses or doctor?

Dannon light and fit is awesome. I am 6 days post surgery and enjoy toasted coconut, strawberry cheesecake, no bits in them. I'm allowed unsweetened applesauce which helped me have first bowel movement on day 4. I'm 6 days post-op. Also drinking premier Protein with no problems.

I couldn't drink Water unless I put some flavor in it. Weird as that sounds. Took me about a month before I could drink again

Update: I ended up staying in the hospital until yesterday. I had meds to stop nausea and acid reflux. Didn't help. Found out my sleeve had a kink in it. Opted to let surgeon correct instead of waiting it out. I would get something strange like that. Lol. Surgeon said he's been sleeving for 12 years and I was his 3rd case with a kink in the sleeve. I came home yesterday but still have to have IV fluids at home to make sure I don't get dehydrated and end back up in the hopital. It sucks, but glad to be home at least. Able to kep a little Water and decaffeinated green tea down. Popcicles as well. That's the only sweet I can do though. Everything else sweet comes back even if I dilute it. Also I've been having this weird foam coming up sometimes. Anyone else experience 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!!
