I'm so excited for you! I had my VSG surgery March 3rd. I was never nauseous and had no problem getting my fluids down. Other than minor muscle soreness, as if I had overworked an adominal exercise session, I felt great from day one! I wish you an uneventful, successful surgery and speedy recovery. Keep us posted!
Thank you [emoji4]

Hope all goes well for you!

Hey guys I'm back with my day 2 post op. Right out of surgery I was out of it I slept the whole day but I did make sure I walked a little and sip on sum water. I haven't had my full liquids yesterday just water but I will start my full liquid diet today at 8 am. There was no pain It was all gas once you let the gas out your good to go. I did experience nausea twice due to the gas pain but nothing too serious. To everyone going for your surgery soon you'll be okay. My birthday is March 26th hopefully I get to have a little bit of fun [emoji4]. Thanks to everyone for the support.

Congrats the pain will pass just take your time. I'm still in a lil pain but it feels like hunger pain but it's all gas.
Congrats! 3 week post op here. Finally hitting the gym tomorrow! Time will fly! I thought I was gonna die week 1… now I’m looking back like girl please! Lol! I remember you said you were in NJ, when you’re feeling up to it in a few weeks we should definitely hit the gym or do some outdoors exercises ?

Congrats on the successful surgery (mine is on April 10) and I know it's a bit early but Happy Birthday! Best gift you could have given yourself.

Aw thanks for the birthday wishes and I am here to support you in your journey.

Same for me! I was prepared for the worst, but hoping for the best...and I couldn't have asked for a better experience considering it is surgery!
I had my surgery March 8th. My procedure went well with no issues. So glad I had it done.I’m down 17lbs so far. Starting at 240

It is wild, isn't it, how much less painful it is for most people? I know some go through a lot of pain but most do not. I was actually pretty surprised. I don't think I really believed the people who told me the same. ?

March 17th here
