3 days post op!!

I had surgery on 12/18 so  I am feeling great. Sore and  tired but pretty good otherwise. 

I seem   to   handle warm  broth popsicles easier than plain water.  So far no regrets. 

Woo hoo!!!!!!

Congrats Weezy!  I had surgery on 12/18 also and I'm feeling pretty good today.  Still get tired easy and have some stomach cramping every once in a while but otherwise good.  It's weird to get full after eating (drinking) so little!  Good luck to you in your journey. 

Good luck to you as well!!

Same here.  Surgery 12/18.  Im having no trouble making my fluid levels, wgich is kind of freaking me out.  I worry its too easy to get this far...

I  have only gotten in about 50  ounces in  , so not perfect, but not shabby. Though I have had some some  pains so I can't it's been too easy. I am happy for you though!!

Hi, 

I had my VSG on the 18th also!  What does it feel like when you are full?  I get a pain that subsides in a few seconds.  Is that the full feeling.  I set a timer to drink an ounce ever 15 minutes.  When you have a popsicle, how much liquid do you cound that as?

If I  drink just one sip too much I also get a sharp pain that  in a few seconds.I am  probably pushing it more than I should but I am terrified of getting   dehydrated.

Yep, thats it  the whole gut feels like its in a mop wringer for a few minutes then subsides.  Im convinCed thats why we dOo so few solids in the beginning- real solids would stick around and be miserable as we learn our new body

OMG a mop wringer is  the perfect to describe the feeling!!

Hi! I am also a 12/18 VSG and doing good as well! Just sipping slow and mixing it up with protein beverages, water, broth and popsicles. I can definitely feel it when I drink too fast, wowzers! LOL
