I had such a bad time in the recovery room after surgery, but felt great the next day....to the point I was wondering if they really did the surgery on me lol other than being a lil weak occasionally I had no issues!

Oh no! Are you ok?

Hilarious!!!

Thanks so much everyone, I appreciate your kind words & encouragement this is the best thing I've ever done. Being able to go thru a day without any aches & pains is priceless. I'm so happy!!

Hello All, I haven't posted on here in a while. I am 5 weeks post-op today and as of my weigh in this morning, I am 30 pounds down since day of surgery. I am amazed. This journey has been filled with ups and downs (more ups than downs tho). I am happy with things so far. It is a challenge doing everything right, but I will get it in time. Please be encouraged. If things aren't going so great for you or if you are having complications, remember that everything takes time and it will get better.

Its truly a process!! Everyday its a battle on what to eat and what not to eat....but we gotta do it...glad you are better!!

Enjoy

I stayed 2 nights.....Sleeved 12/20 at 11am, released 12/22 at 3pm...my nut was on vacation so I saw her the week before.

Oh yeah, I came home on a puree diet, which consisted of almost any food pureed to be the consistency of applesauce. YUCK, right? So I basically have been eating oatmeal, broth and cream soups. My soup I made today was so mushy it qualified as pureed, but I think it tasted so good to me because it was home cooked and not out of a can. I will verify this with my surgeon but I believe one week out we can start on soft foods. Every surgeon has his own set of rules, and some ppl prefer staying on liquids instead of purees anyway......Thanks for watching LoserMama and best of luck to you!!!

You look awesome!!

Hey Everyone...I made my one week post op vid....Enjoy!!

Thanks everyone....Merry Christmas!!!

I just bought some acid controller from Walgreens. I didnt ask my surgeon or doctor. I have seen enough ppl on here say that they take it after surgery. I am 3 days post op and I needed some relief!!

Hi Honey, I was wondering how you are doing....I used the GNC Wheybolic AMP powder in chocolate. I also do the double protein milk (non-fat dry milk powder and 1% milk). I havent gotten in a 60 grams yet, but I am trying, you keep trying too, the protein is the most important part.
