I feel like a contestant on Survivor

Nov 20, 2017

Hello everyone, this is my first post though I have been reading all of yours over the last 2 weeks.  I am 4 days post VGS, and STARVED.  I really shouldn't complain; I have had minimal pain and only 3  brief episodes of nausea.  I had both a lap chole and lap appy years ago, but remember being just miserable afterward.  I've been moving around just fine....until today.  I am weak and dizzy when I stand up.  I've lost 15# between the 1 week pre-op diet and the clear liquids since surgery, and I'm thinking I'm just fading from low calories.  I'm averaging less than 200 a day.  Can someone tell me this will pass soon?  Looking forward to advancing to pureed on Thanksgiving.

Thanks, everyone.  Keep the faith!!
