You can get it at Walmart. It's a little pricey but it actually works and a little goes a long way. Told you it wouldn't be that bad. Congrats on the 13.6!!!!!! ty how are u doing so far?

Some docs like staples, others don't. Mine did dissolvable internal stitches, but I've heard of many sleevers who have staples. I got my steri-strips taken off yesterday and as soon as the incisions look well-healed I will start putting Mederma on them to minimize scarring. People with staples may especially want to use Mederma, as the scars tend to be wider.ooo im gonna look for that cream… yes I had the sleeve done. My dr used staples and I stressed last night for nothong. He removed 19 staples in less than a min with no pain.. N im down 13.6.

Im sooooo nervous… tomorrow I go to have my staples removed I have 19 of them. Im more stressed over this then the surgery itself. Im thinking of taking a pain killer b4 I go. I just heard its very painful… .

hi… how are you doing so far

I have a FIT BIT - it keeps track of my steps & I have the FIT BIT app on my phn. It lets you enter your fluids & Protein, carbs, etc... My Protein shakes are part of my "fluid goal" my dr just requests a total fluid goal of 40 - 60 oz a day, not 60 + oz of water! Thank God I would never make it.. I'm on to puréed foods now through May 21st... My next Drs apt is May 22nd. I will be 6 weeks post op then. I am a total rule follower with this as it was a self pay of $20k adventure so there is no way I won't succeed. I walk around with the thought of I have $20 k in my tummy, and there is no way will I blow it .. I'm feeling fine - I'm on my way to Hottyville ????... That is my plan! How are you feeling? Did you watch any of the You Tube videos? Take Care.. And keep on keeping on!???????? I am using paper n pen.. The best thing I have is my daughters journal from last year when she did it… so im trying to follow hers

since I started the protein shakes the hunger is not so bad ..I spike to my nut and she saud the loud growling is that everything is working right

Today I have more energy.. I also slept a few hours on my bed on my side… no so hungry with the shake but the feeling is there. Tomorrow I start full liquids I am also bored n cant wait to go back to work. Thank you all for being there for me

I started the premier protein shakes today. It helps for a little but then my stomach is growling.. I dont understand cause most if its gone lol. Im hoping in 2 days when I can have the cream soups or yogurt it will subside… on the brighter sude I am down 9.2 lbs so that's a plus and I thank u all for all ur support
