I will be 8 weeks in Friday and had a little kofta yesterday and Monday. It's a ground beef kabob. I am gonna wait till 4 months and not eat anymore red meat but it went down fine. I haven't had any revisions and no computations. Thank God. I eat everything else and I have a sleeve of steel. That's for sure. I would love a burger with a lettuce wrap. Mmmm!

My dr says I need to wait 4 months for red meat. Does anyone know why? For those of you who do eat it, is it hard to swallow? How does it feel?

7 weeks out and 27 lbs lost here. Try to stop weighing in. Hide that scale for a couple of weeks and focus on all the other things. best of luck to you and all of us.

That's great to know! I get sick of reheating 2 or 3 times. Also, I can't sit with my family. I feel pressured to eat fast so I eat later.

Eat meals without taking 30-45 mins? Are we always gonna have to wait 2 minutes between each bite?

Thinking and praying for you! I hope a speedy recovery.

Love this! Thanks. I really needed it.

I find a lot of great in home strength training on shape.com You can break up your workouts in 2. You will see results. I do 20 mins in the am and 20 mins in pm. Check out Pinterest for 20 min workouts. I break out into a good sweat. . Best of luck.

This is all awesome info. It is weird how all drs are different. I have my one month post op on the 28th. Will see what my dr says

That's good to know. I just want to breath easy. thanks

When can I safely rest assure that I'm not going to have and major or serious complications from this surgery? I'm 11 days out and always think about leaks and scary things like that. Is it weeks months years?

I feel amazing! %95 back to normal. Do all daily duties. It's night and day from 7 days ago!

I went in on a Friday. Surgery was 50minutes long. Was in recovery for about 1 1/2 hours. Was sent to my room afterwards and left Sunday afternoon. No complications. My dr wants all his patients to be in for 2 nights. Best of luck to you.

Thanks for all of your feedback. I'm trying to walk walk walk but man my shoulder is killing me!

I'm 3 days post op. anytime I drink, no more than an oz at a time, I get that tightness feeling. How long does that last?

Congrats! So refreshing to hear such a nice story. I'm 3 days out and hoping for relief. Way to go!

We have the same story! I was sleeved Friday and had bad nausea. Luckily no vomiting. I have my post op appointment on Thursday also! So far I'm trying to get my liquids down. So scared of dehydration. Hope our days get easier. good luck!

How many do you take at once? In 2 days post op and needing some. I have 2 with me but should I just do 1 for now?

Tomorrow is my surgery. Next week I have an appointment with my pcp and I will ask to get it. Thanks for easing my mind.

I meant to say copper IUD. I would love something that has no hormones!

Thank goodness for this thread! I just stopped my pill 2 days before surgery. My Dr. Didn't really say yes or no as to taking it. He asked if I could dissolve it in my mouth. I said I don't know I never tried. So I just decided to stop it and get something new. Anybody use an IUD? I'm so scared of accidents.
