    Hi all. Today was a milestone for me. Had sleeve surgery July 10th and today was my first big family get together. Lots of family and food. I am proud of myself. Asked ahead of time for chicken and veges I could eat. Stayed away from hamburgers and hot dogs and birthday cake. Not easy but I did it.

    Air Fryer - Yay or Nay?

    Love mine ... no issues whatsoever. But I have an iron stomach, and nothing bothers it pretty much ever, so there's that.

    Air Fryer - Yay or Nay?

    I know they are fabulous but this isn’t a thread about whether I should buy one or not. The question is how well do bariatric patients do with eating food from an Air Fryer? What’s your experience? Every non-bariatric person I know loves theirs. But I’ve seen several articles lately discussing how the end product is not good for those that have had WLS as the food isn’t as tender or smooth as it should be. Most articles referred to items with crunchy outsides. So, thoughts?

    Unflavored protein powder

    My doctor sells something called “Uninjury” I believe and it is the only one I can tolerate for a protein powder. He also has liquid flavor packets for water that contain 14 grams of protein and those I can tolerate...for the most part tastes like Koolaid.

    I'm no expert and nor as far along as you but my Dr's are really serious about taking vitamins. The concern of course is for your major organs to function at peak efficiency while you are not absorbing less from your food. Vitamins don't have to be expensive, even a couple of Flintstone chewables a day are better than nothing. I take a multi vitamin twice a day and calcium 3 times a day, I want the best outcome long term. Please call your Dr and check what they say.

    Incision infection

    I have one that the surgical glue came off of and its not looking great. It looked more like a hole where the other ones were closed and it was weepy a lil and itchy. The rest look fine. I called my surgeons office to let them know and went to my primary care physician (she's closer). She gave me a script for Doxycycline which is making me throw up half the time. Told me to keep washing it with soap and water. I go back to my Dr. Monday so they can look at it. The antibiotic seems to be helping. If it's not getting better I go back to my surgeons office on Weds. Good Luck!
