  1. So, I am 7 weeks out and I have been getting horrible headaches almost everyday. At first I thought it might have been caffeine withdrawals, but I assume since it's been out of my system for two months this can't be the case. I take chewable Advil and it helps for awhile. I never used to get headaches and am just wondering if any others had this symptom.
  2. So, I know this is an online forum, but I wanted to check if anyone was from the Bay Area and interested in starting an in-person social group. I'm in Oakland... just brainstorming here...

    Monster Energy Non-Carbonated

    The new low-carbonation red bull is nice. I put it in a jug and shake until all the carbonation is gone. Has a little caffeine, but no sugar or carbs.

    Vacation

    Wasn't hard for me to travel three weeks out, but I didn't feel like going on the trip my partner and I had planned. Ended up sucking it up and going... Had a nice time but that soon after surgery your food options are VERY limited... so being stuck on a boat isn't ideal...

    I'm down 37 pounds since surgery! Woohoo.
  11. Santa Barbara is great. I lived there for 10 years while in college and grad school... beautiful place.
  12. Where in Cali souledout? I'm in the Bay area.
  13. I'm a week out from surgery and on full liquids. I'm not really having any trouble with liquids... What feeling would I have when I'm full? My stomach area doesn't feel bloated and I don't feel "full" in the ways I would before surgery. Any description of what I should be feeling for so I don't over drink?
  14. Got it... So some pain in my lower belly at this point is probably just still surgery soreness, not being full? I feel nothing near the bottom of my throat.
