Sherrischeffler

Im in Tennessee 30 mins from Nashville, had my plastic @ Vanderbilt Plastic surgery.

It can happen & sometimes it may have been going but weight loss helped it along,we really dont need a gallbladder to function

Has anyone discussed this with their surgeon as to why it is so bad? I like very spicy and salty food, and I find it very difficult not to take a couple small sips of Water after eating. I swish it around in my mouth, to take out the taste, two sips at most. I have never had dumping.

Does anyone else feel like they need to do this? And what if your food is a liquid like Soup? Doesn't that count as eating and drinking?

Has anyone been told eating and drinking at the same time will stretch out ones stomach?

I'm worried but I can't seem to stop.

Exactly how long before and after eating am I supposed to wait??

Also I just can't stop eating fast!!!! It's so hard. Eating fast, lightning fast, is such a huge habit for me. After I had kids it only got worse. I forget or I try and slow down and it's so hard. I find eating super boring and tedious and sometimes I just want to get it over. Sometimes the food tastes so darn good I just have to keep eating it!!! Anyone else have any advice for me?

drinking and eating together not good because fluids wash away nutrients your body needs to feed from thats why 45 min waiting period should occur

Ok, more TMI. I am 5 weeks out and not necessarily having a problem having to go, it's just a nigh,are getting it out. Take 2 Colace every day and it certainly isn't softening anything g up. Any suggestions?

try 4 tbsp of Milk of magnesium followed by 20oz of Water and relief will come within 24hrs no cramping.

Ok so I had my surgery on Jan 7 and still have not pooped!!! I have taken Miralax the last 4 days, and it am getting so nervous for when it does come ( if it ever does) I am getting 90 gr of Protein, 64oz of Water, and all my Vitamins. The surgery was a breeze but I developed a Large hematoma that is very painful so I am still taking pain meds. What do I do???? I am normally an every day kinda girl. Is this normal, anyone have any advice?

take 4tbsp of Milk of magnesium followed by 20oz of water & relief will come within 24 hrs pain free & no diahrea effect.

I'm 4 months post op and I'm 46 lbs down and at a stand still. I'm Si depressed that it's not coming off quicker!! I know I eat some of the wrong things but I try and try to stay on track! It's so hard! I'm have issues with my shoulder, I had to be put to sleep for a manipulation on it past week and its keeping me from working out. I can't lift weights I can't get in the floor and do any exercising bc of the arm. I just want the pain to go away so I can start building some Muscle!! Just need a kick in the pants!!!

drink more Protein if tired of chocolate, vanilla &strawberry thrn try nectar BRAND PROTEIN they are in mixed fruit flavors. I mix as instructedplus add in 1 pk crystal light then pour into 20 oz water bottle or double mix & pour into 32 oz gatorade bottle i use (G2) &mix protein instead of crystal light i like making my own flavors. You can find it @@vitamin shoppe or Amazon & container last a whileso you can still burn fat while drinking protein & also build muscle,hang in there im on fb as Sherri landers scheffler if you have any ?? Im almost 20 months post op

I had my gallbladder removed 6 months exactly sfter my gastric bypass due to rapid weight loss its common so if you need gallbladder removed let then do it & the recovery is only 2wks down if that & you eill feel much better. I felt all of what you are feeling plus thought i was having a heart attack all at same time, those are all symptoms of gallbladder attack so wishing you a speedy recovery..im on fb as sherri landers scheffler if you have any ?? I may be able to help with Good luck & hang in there it grts better.

Waiting til july not sure yet

I lost 80 before the TT and I've lost 20 more since. It was $4.500 for TT and flank Lipo. The experience was great everyone was very nice ☺️☺️ and its only 2.5 hrs away from here (Phoenix) .

what state do you live in & who was ur surgeon?

My surgeon says he doesn't use drains on the breast anymore anyone else have a surgeon who is doing this?

I fid 2 1/2 wks ago w/muscle stitching & only regret not doing all this yrs ago feeling much better today.

Yes relief from bloating

Im using Silvadene burn cream so far its working wonders.

I had my breast reduction on Monday and I am massively uncomfortable. But more worrisome than the pain is that I have been running a fever and one of my breasts is more swollen than the other. The surgeon was worried about a possible hematoma and decided to keep me for observation for a couple of extra days. The only good thing about that is that someone else has to deal with my drains. I'm afraid that when I strip the lines, it looks different from when the professionals do it.

If you ever have an extended stay in a hospital, be prepared to have to fight for healthy, low carb food. Even though I was on their "controlled carb" plan, they served me Pasta and angel food cake in one meal. Breakfast was quiche that was obviously made with flour in the filling.

My husband brought me my ipad today so I can finally catch up with my "peeps" on BariatricPal. I was having withdrawal symptoms!

whats your recovery time on reduction. .

Anyone know recovery time on breast reduction? ?? Hoping to get it in July. ..

I used 4tbsp of milk of magnesium w / 20 oz bottle of Water & it worked wonders w / no cramping

How lonv did anyone have to dleep in a recl I ner after TT ???

I was a self pay, I found a terrific surgeon in Mexico that was about a 1/4 of the cost I was quoted in the states...I am very happy, it was super easy flew to San Diego and was picked up at the airport and taken across the boarder stayed a week and flew home...

did you have dr guitterez??

I recently had abdominalplasty on January 2nd & had Nashville's top plastic surgeon work on me @ Vanderbilt Plastic surgery / Dr Bruce Shack,im still in recovery mode @home but my husband sat in room when he started drawing his lines .of course i hadn't had any other man physically touching me since before 1990 &that was akward.&sll i say is that was quick drawing &he chuckled.
