Good luck!

I am wondering if after an amount of time having the sleeve surgery has anyone tried a glass of wine. I have never drank much in my life but just wondering if I'm out to dinner or at a party if I could handle a few sips of wine. I am 8 weeks post opp and eating small amounts of regular food with no issues.

Thank you for this post.

Congrats on you weight loss Rockiagirl. What is tpn. I want to stay away from it.

Congrats! You are awesome!

I have RA and fibromyalgia. I have always been anti-prescription meds. I was diagnosed 11 years ago and managed the pain by excising at least 4 times a week. It really helped the pain but i still had pain. And for some reason probably too much food or my choose of food I has my weight problem. Since the surgery the weight is coming off 6.5 weeks 34lbs and pain is less and less all the time.

@babygirl09, I stalled at 30 lbs for about 8 days. Then I started eating avocado with my meals, ( egg whit omelet with a little avocado and cheese for Breakfast, slice if avocado with what ever I have for dinner) and for some reason them started loosing weight again. No clue if its the avocado or coincidence but I'm keeping at it.

I was on a stall for about 10 days with the scale not moving. I read on here the recommendation to eat avocado to help get off a stall and it worked or it could be coincidence.???? I had some avocado slices last night and this morning I was down 2 lbs. I think I'll just keep eating a little avocado each day and see if the scale keeps moving. Day of Surgery -- 4/25/13 Weight loose -- 34 lbs

My surgery was 4/25/13. I am currently down 32 lbs. I am feeling pretty good. Eating is difficult but it is suppose to be. I am really happy to have had this operation.

I was 6 days and started to panic at 5. It will happen just keep drinking your fluids and following your diet. Once it does happen it doesn't seem happen regularly for a few weeks. You may go every other day.

Ok I am swallowing pills now. Thank u all for the advise

I am wondering if anyone can drink carbonated drinks like mineral water. I am not interested I. Drinking soda but curious if its ok to drink something with bubbles and no sugar

It's your body and you don't have to tell people. I am not telling people at work but I did tell my family and close friends.

Yes! It was one of my favorite soft foods!

I am 6 weeks post op and still feel hungry exactly like you.

I need to take the medication to prevent full stones for 6 months. I have been opening the pills and mixing the medication in yogurt, a protein drink, or a little juice. The pills are disgusting! I want to know when I can swallow them.

I am 6 weeks post op. My doctor said I could now eat regular healthy foods in small portions. I tried a few bites of salad, making sure to chew well, and had then I stomach aches.

I like premier from Costco 30 grams of protein 1 gram of sugars. They are made is little cartons and easy to take anywhere

I am one month post opp. The first 2 weeks I was loosing 1 lb everyday. At my 2 week check up my Dr. Said do not weigh yourself every day because stalls will happen and then I would get depressed. I continued to weigh myself but then 3 weeks in stalls started happening. Now I just weigh my self once a week.
