    colace and miralax helps also. I find if you put miralax in something warm to drink it works better

    walking. brisk walking helps. The more steps you walk the more it will help.

    you will get past it. I hit the stall at 2 weeks post op and stayed on the stall for 4 weeks. It will get better. Just remember the scale can be your enemy. I kept dropping clothes sizes and inches, but not pounds. Now I am losing pounds again. It will change. Hang in there.

    Thanks Everyone. I am so excited and happy. My husband works in the oilfield, and is gone for his hitch. I cant wait until he gets off his shift so I can tell him. He is such a wonderful supporter in this journey.

    Discharged

    Carol Watts replied to jennaayyy03's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Walk all you can stand to. The more you walk the less your stomach will hurt. Just short walks several times a day. That is what they taught me when I had surgery.

    I am post -op by one week. Before surgery I went and found a protein shake and powder I liked. I chose pure protein so I could try to get the most protein. I can't drink them now. Every time I try they make me sick at my stomach. Even making a smoothie with powder I get nausea.

    Has Anybody Else...

    Carol Watts replied to Di-Sleeve's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I didnt have the numbness, but the itchy feeling will stop. Just means it is healing. The itchy feeling almost drove me crazy.

    Am I Doing This Right?

    Carol Watts replied to TheNEWME!'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I hit the stall at 2 weeks it lasted until this week. I am 6 weeks out today. I kept losing inches and clothes kept getting to big though. Scales didnt move for 4 weeks. Scales can be your enemy.

    Boobs & Such...

    Carol Watts replied to tonyarenee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I am 6 weeks post op. I just had to go buy a bra. I was in a 44 C now in a 40 B. I only have about 75 more pounds to loose. I have already lost 37 between before and since surgery. It is really sad when I have a 14 year old granddaughter that has more boob's than I do.

    Anybody Have Blue Shield ***?

    Carol Watts replied to missmelymelissa's topic in Insurance & Financing

    Blue Cross, told me it takes that long, but my surgery was scheduled so the guy rushed mine and called me back the next day with approval. My Dr sent mine in as a medical necessary so Blue Cross would cover it.

    Syntrax Nectar

    Carol Watts posted a topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements

    Could anyone share their favorite flavors of this protein ? I cannot tolerate the regular protein drinks they are to milky and make me sick at stomach. Dr says stomach may not be ready for them.

    Protein Shakes Help Please

    Carol Watts replied to Carol Watts's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I have found I can only drink the syntrax nectar strawberry mousse flavor mixed with water. Everything else is to heavy on the stomach.
