I did my 2nd workout since the op tonight.
Now I feel really sick. Don't even want fluids.
I didn't lift anything heavy. Now I'm worried.
I need some advice from my fellow post sleevers.
I'm getting back to solid foods but am struggling to keep anything solid down.
I have hardly anything, one bite, and it comes back up.

My other incisions leaked green and I asked the nurse why it was green. Her response. "It's not green".
I think she's colour blind.
Either way. I was fine. But yes, I experienced it too.
I didn't have a Pre op diet at all. But I was only just scraping into the morbid obese bmi. So it may not have been needed.
I think I'm successfully stating hydrated as I'm still urinating throughout the day and I can keep water down most of the time.
It's mostly happening during my evening meal.
I think I may be...
I'm hardly eating anything. I get two or three spoons of soup broth in and then vomit back up.
It doesn't always happen. But started only a couple of days ago.
I don't get any sensation of...
The size that they cut our stomachs down to is smller nowadays.
Just a thought, that might be the reason for so many different food plans.
I guess it depends what size "tube" we have now.
I'm 9 days post op and even though I'm still on liquids, I find myself vomiting on occasion.
What are the reasons you found yourself vomiting?
I can't believe it was exactly one week ago I was stuffing my face with pizza for my last meal before fasting for surgery.
I am already down 5kg!!
The co2 gas pain is still annoying but...
I know it's different for everyone but I'm wondering when your pain started to subside after surgery?
I was doing great until today (day 5) and I have pain in my shoulders. I've left a voicemail...
yep. I did it on day 3 with a bit of apple. SOOOOO GOOD!
Tempted to do it with a bite of cheeseburger but I'm too worried I might accidentally swallow and then tear my staple line.
It was torture...
Thank you so much. I got such a basic version of that but this one is much more helpful.
What about my daily tablets? Wont they be doing damage?
I got a short list from the nutritionist but I ran past her some suggestions and she said yes to them all.
I wasn't on a pre-op diet.
I never swallowed any of the solids. I just chewed and spat...
:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
clear liquids? Isn't that only water?
The hospital served me custard and jelly so I figured soft stuff like yoghurt and soup would be ok.
Now I'm petrified that I've torn my staple line!!!
I'm finding it easy to eat the Hydralyte icy poles, they are a blessing for keeping me hydrated.
I made a veg soup but it doesn't go down well even though I pureed it.
I still crave solid food...
I take an anti reflux med called Somac. It's quite small so I find it easy to swallow without getting stuck in the swollen part of my new stomach. (even Panadol mini caps are getting stuck on...

Don't stress sweetie.
I didn't even get put on a pre-op diet. My final meal (12hours before surgery) was pizza and nothing went wrong with me. It's understanding the way food controls us.
I'm day 4...
I found it difficult to poop for the first few days and found myself straining to push. If you had the same issue you could've just burst a little blood vessel. But just to be safe I'd give the...
You are so strong for getting through that amount of surgery time. So proud of you!
I had my sleeve done the day after you. We should keep in touch about stuff. I'm in WA.
Does anyone find they get the hiccups a lot post op?
I noticed last night that I was aware of my heart beating but it wasn't going super fast or anything. I was just really aware it was beating hard.
I'm just thinking (as I write this) that I'm...
I'm 3 days out and afraid of getting a leak.
Yesterday I was feeling good but tender so I think I overate and now I'm worried I may have done some damage.
I feel slightly nauseas but no fever and...
