Good luck and a speedy recovery to you both! 😁

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat.....[emoji47] I can't drink while eating, Omg kill me now lol. Im 6 months post op and i still hate the fact that i cant have a cold refreshing drink while i eat. That's probably the hardest thing for me. I love this app because i can finally express myself and people understand me[emoji6] I cant be the only one who struggles with eating with a dry throat. Sometimes i will take a sip. Sent from my LG-Q710AL using BariatricPal mobile app

I am a couple days away from 4 months post op. Best thing I have ever done for myself. The changes physically, mentally and in my health in 4 short months is nothing short of amazing. I wish you all the best and a quick healing. There will be some tough spots but keep looking ahead. It will all pass. Keep us posted!

Your pharmacist may be able to answer that too.

Ok so.... just wanted to post this. Our nutritionists say we can’t absorb more than 25 g of protein in one sitting. Just wanted to throw that out there, but if you’re drinking that shake all day I’m sure it’s ok.

This was a concern of mine too. Especially on the Facebook bypass support groups I was on. They were saying that 25% of sleevers end up getting converted. Yikes! But you can’t believe everything you read on the internet and so I went looking for more reliable sources of information - namely medical studies. Sorry I didn’t save the links so you can read them for yourself but I have screenshots of the information I wanted: As you can see, the numbers are actually quite small! So don't feel you have to worry about getting a revision - statistics are in your favor!

I sometimes have to take a swallow of water at the end of my meal just to get the taste of the food out of my mouth. My husband makes me get water when we go out just to make the server feel better🤣

That's GREAT! Way to go!
