Day 3. Had a roughish morning. Had a sudden bang of nausea and awful gas. Just wanted to burp all the time. It was very painful but luckily a few meds sorted me and I slept awhile. Had my first shower. Was heaven!! Drunk cubitan now. Nice to have something a bit thicker than Water and more flavour. Looking forward to going home tomorrow

I’m scheduled January 16th, can’t wait!




Dr didn't require one I guess. I was told to do the Protein based part. And stay away from food we can no longer have. I'm doing the Rny 1/17/18. Almost time.

Me too. Am going into hospital tomorrow afternoon. Operation on Tuesday morning 16th. They will repair my hiatial hernia as well as do a vsg. And told me that since I've got sleep apnea, they might put me under observation in the intensive care for the night... I hope it won't be necessary. Am super nervous though I know it's the best decision I've made to do the vsg. Here's to us all! Xx

Lindsay, I hear that!!! I felt the same way. Im now 9 days post op. The pain gets less and less. I told everyone, if I could fast forward 2 weeks I would. Hang in there your feelings and pain is normal!!! XO

How are you feeling after the two weeks? What time of pain do you still have?

Anyone able to get all their Protein in? I am barely able to eat more than a few spoonfuls of my puréed protein at every meal.

Why aren't you able to get all Protein in? Too full? Nauseous? I will be starting soft foods this coming week.

      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!!
