cranky to exhausted is right LOL but I find its better now, now I can chew mushy food I feel abit normal and of course seeing results makes it much easier thanks guys!

Good work MrNickSr, I think some surgeons give you a underestimated goal weight just because they cant guarantee weights we want ourselves if that makes sense? but congratulations good work :001_unsure:

Good luck I love your name, very clever

29 here :sleep0:

Hi girldep I just posted a couple of days ago a similar post I have been like this the last couple of days, I did notice I have started to get more tolerant yesterday and Im feeling better today, I found to much stimuli irritating while my body is adjusting to its new state and new cal intake, hopefully you start feeling better in in few days too. :sleep0:

I was allowed to take Ibuprofen post op, only was in suppository, to avoid breakdown/metabolising in the stomach, I dont know about long term tho.

103.6 here, seems like impossible goal, but if someone had of told me 22lbs in 10 days a couple of weeks I would of laughed at them, so why not :thumbup1: go for the gold

Hi good luck with the surgery, I know how your feeling, I quit smoking a month before too, but you know what it will be the best thing you do in helping in the recovery process, also make sure post op you really do ur breathing exercises, as a newly ex smoker your lungs are still recovering too, myself i spiked a temp on day 2 and chest xray showed atelectasis, because i wasnt doing the breathing properly, it resolved itself in 24 hrs no problem, but did push my discharge day back one day, and when your feeling so well afterwards, cabin fever can kick in LOL Good luck, welcome, you have done a good job already keep us updated!
