Back at the hospital
so I'm back at the hospital again. I went to see my surgeon. I was feeling really nauseous in throwing everything up. I couldn't keep water down and I knew I was dehydrated. so now I'm back at the hospital and spent my birthday night here. Oh joy.

Do you have a stricture or did you just not drink? Hope all goes well from here on out.

"WLS is about making better choices, a healthier lifestyle and seeing how little you can eat. Portion control is the key to all weight loss surgeries. Bottom line - it isn't how much you can eat - it is how little you can eat."
supposedly it's too early for a stricture. my problem actually was I was not eating enough. I would feel nauseous so I wouldn't eat. supposedly it's like a horrible cycle. I need to make sure I eat even when I'm not hungry. I would also have a hard time getting in my water because I would throw it up. so now I'm eating more and figuring out what medicines work for me. hopefully after this hospital stay everything will be good.

I remember feeling like how you described when I was about the same time out. I remember sitting in my house thinking I probably should be going to the ER because I KNEW I was dehydrated. I didn't go and somehow it worked itself out. I couldn't even drink 1 ounce of water every 15 minutes...just had no interest or desire. Nothing sounded good at all. I never thought I would ever be able to drink 48-64 ounces of anything a day.
Now, 3 months out, I still don't have any interest or desire for food. I do desire my protein shakes and that is totally amazing to me since it took me FOREVER to find a combination I liked. Now I easily get 48 ounces of liquid a day.
My problem now is getting in the amount of protein I need to get. I am still in the stage where I can't imagine how I'm supposed to get 60-80 grams a day. I'm looking forward to the time when I know I can get that in without any problems.
One day at a time, I say. You'll get there too!

Big hugs I was going through the same exact thing.. I went to my dr. yest b/c i hadn't eaten since last wed. I was barely getting in 10oz of water and you could tell I was on the verge of being completely dehydrated I had to go today and get a stricture fixed.. I am not too many days behind you on surgery dates. I hope you get to feeling better soon.. Sorry you had to spend your b-day in the hospital.. Just think this time next year this will all be a thing of the past!
