  1. I like salty food and all but im having ridiculous salt cravings like I've never had before. Is this normal?
  2. I did pureed from week 3-4 then lean ground meats 5-6
  3. Gas x wont do a thing outside your organs. surgical gas(is not that "kind of gas") its used to expand your abdomen not put inside. I know it sucks but ask for more pain killers(I had 3 ivs of them i was in so much pain )and keep walking
  4. I had a leak test day after surgery no drain.
  5. I had rapid heart rate and nausea for the first time tonight. Pretty sure I ate to fast/ to much. Maybe its the same deal
  6. Well I learned my lesson lol
  7. Im on pureed stage. I had thinned out mashed potatoes with pureed chicken salad. I ate about 2 oz or so of it and now im having rapid heart rate and it feels like its coming back up a bit(like gerd). Im assuming I ate to much or to fast? Anyone else get this?
  8. Only thing that will help is walking. I remember first week if I drank anything id have to walk right away
  9. I couldn't either till I had ricotta mixed with baby food banana pear and oats..it was good. I also made a small eggwhite omelet with lactose cheese and my new thing is mashed potatoes with pureed chicken salad and gravy(to hide the fact that the chicken salad is pureed)
  10. I was also sleeved 4/23 and for breakfast I made a tbsp of egg whites and put some melted lactose free cheese on it also 2 baby spoons full of fruit baby food on the side. I have no idea how you fit that but to each their own
  11. Endoscopy is nothing it doesn't hurt at all. I've had 2 ..they basically put you out and you wake up like nothing happened
  12. I can drink crystal light like its nobody's business and im 2 weeks out
  13. I take 5 pills at night. And one in the am. It took me 20minutes but I took them 1 at a time for the first week. 2 of them I was able to cut in half.
  14. I was required to have a stress test and heart echo despite having fine blood pressure and ekg. It was all procedure
  15. I think they just don't want to say anything because weight is usually a touchy subject. A few years ago when I use to smoke I had an old man come up to me and tell me I shouldn't be smoking when im pregnant. Needless to say I wasn't pregnant just fat
  16. My pre op was full liquids for a week
  17. Im not allowed and im almost 2 weeks post op. I think ice cream has way to much stuff that isn't good for you(sugar and so on). Your probably better off freezing yogurt and having that
  18. I say 1..only because #2 hair is thick and one isn't..can tell better
  19. urbandecayno5 replied to tmoss's topic in The Guys’ Room
    Not a man but im having the same issue. I've just been timing myself once every 4 hours. Its the weirdest thing
  20. There's 9g in a 2.5oz jar of beef with beef broth..not sure how it'll taste till Monday
  21. Let me know how it goes with the mayo
  22. Thanks..I got alot of the fruit ones and some vegetables..I bought 1 can with meat which will probably end up in the garbage
  23. Im at the pureed stage starting Monday for 2 weeks. I have refried beans, mashed potatoes, egg whites, cottage cheese, yogurt, etc...baby food seems the easier option( im a grab and go type person)..what flavors are half decent?
  24. I don't regret it im 11days out but the girl I shared a hospital room with had her band removed due to erosion and also had massive amount of scar tissue removed. She said she wish she had the sleeve
  25. I have my eyeliner tattooed on so it worked out nicely for me. I have 2 earrings I couldn't get out without alot of force so I left them in and they made me sign a paper saying they aren't responsible for any burns I get. In regards to hair dye I've been paranoid with that and hearing my hair could fall out. So I decided to leave it undyed for a while
