I was on clear liquids right after surgery as tolerated, you should be sipping water constantly so you do not dehydrate
-
I have the fitbit flex , its ok but basically a glorified pedometer I am less then impressed with it
-
Surgery can cause that , pain meds being put out ext.... if it lasts more then a few weeks you should talk to your dr, remember you just underwent a huge lifestyle change

If the band is to tight you may not lose weight , I would ask the surgeon

I bought the Blend Tec , researched them both, both amazing machines there wasn't that much different between the two, I have two friends that bought the vitamix and just love it , my Blend tec is an amazing machine as well will do just about anything , it was a very good investment

Weight loss and stress
michpell39 replied to lisacaron's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can totally relate with that, do what you need to do to chill out , tea is awesome sometimes a good movie or book does the trick as well, I hope you feel better soon -
Weight loss and stress
michpell39 replied to lisacaron's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Going to the gym is one of the best ways you can reduce stress , it does wonders for me when I am stressed or angry. -
As a newly banded , I look to the people like yourselves who have had great success with the band , the first thing my clinic told me was " restriction" is a four letter word in their office , look for satisfied and 3-4 hours between meals, so that's what I have been doing and 7 weeks since surgery I work out daily and make sure I watch my band portions and I am down 30 pounds and counting . I feel great and hope for continued success

Do any of you on occasion have popcorn, how does your band handle it? I have been told its a slider

Great to know thank you, not a huge fan of popcorn but wouldn't mind a bit to munch while at the movies

I never thought those words would come out of my mouth , banded nearly 6 weeks ago and thankfully I am rarely hungry so far trouble is I don't thing I am meeting minimum nutrition , I get between 5-7 hundred cals per day lean proteins mostly , question how much do all of you eat ? and how can I get more protein in? , thanks

Burpees , squats and lunges take care of all of those areas

One week before surgery and I have a cough???
michpell39 replied to jcrown19's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
for sure call the doctor, I was told as long as I didn't have a fever it was good -
My soft stop is a sigh or a yawn
