Omg, I thought I was the only one doing the chewing and the spitting out. Lol I'll be 5 weeks out in a couple if days, and can't wait to have some real food .. Good luck!!

Not sure about that one... I think it will be ok. Just suck on the lemon , don't eat it. U can eat a piece of watermelon with lemon and chilli powder!! Yummy that's sounds really good right now..

I'm 4 weeks out made myself salsa verde to put on everything!!! Just make sure u blend everything very well. How many weeks out r u? I even put it on my soups.... Mmmmmm good!

Jr,
Just don't do it, not this early out.
Now is the time to learn new Eatting habits, after u hit goal then u can on occasion go off and eat some junk food.
The first six months you want to invest in weight loss and changing the habits that created our obesity.
Good luck, think positive and skinny thoughts

I'm 2 weeks post-op and my doctor said it was ok as Long as i feel ok... I used one on sat and it was good. No pain, I felt good,Lost 15 pounds so far...

I just had my band removed in June, after having it for 7 years....my doctor was able to do both procedures the same day....my surgery took longer than he thought it would (2 hours) but it was because he had to clean the scar tissue around the band....
But he was able to do it.....I think doctors tell patients that so you can know what the worst case senario would be....when he told me that I could have 2 surgeries instead of the one, I starting praying to God....
God please guide Dr. Yu's hands so I can have 1 successful surgery, amen....every time I thought about the procedure I would say that prayer....
If you dont want to procedures, make sure you follow the 2 week pre-op diet to the letter and pray.....
prayer works!!

Thanks , I think I'm going to sleep at my aunts house for those 2 nights. She lives about 30 min away from the camping area.

Surgery and your health comes first! Thankfully due to your sleeve you are going to have many opportunities to go camping and hiking etc.. in the future! That is one of the things that I am looking forward to the most. I want to be able to go on 5 mile hikes with my hubby and be able to keep up. I have not been sleeved yet, but hope to schedule during Christmas holidays as I am a teacher. By the way, is this camping trip in an RV with a comfy bed? If it is go for it! You can lay around in the RV just as well as you can at home. Good luck!
