RAK

Suddenly I'm faced with what appears to be major gallbladder issues and already a recommendation to have it removed. I am on antibiotics and wondered what others experiences are with this issue. Have you had a problem that was controlled and or pushed off by antibiotics? My Sleeve surgery was 9 weeks ago today (down 43 pounds since surgery now) and I am finally supposed to go on a vacation. I hope to at least delay any gallbladder surgery for 2 weeks. Any feedback on any related experiences is appreciated!

I had high temperature over the weekend and going for an ultrasound today. My symptoms are similar to what yours were and seem to indicate gallbladder issues of some sort. We're you able to delay surgery with antibiotics at all?

Same thing ere, I lost 25 pounds in the first 2 weeks and now 15 total min 6 weeks, so just a hair over 2 a week. Still eating low calories and exercising. Seems crazy.

You look great, fantastic progress! I need to get brave and post pics soon

I started a walking one week after surgery and about 15 days after surgery started super light workouts with a trainer and since then I have made great strides. Surgery Date: July, 23, 2013 Weight on Day of Surgery 285 pounds Current Weight 245 pounds Down 40 pounds (8 weeks)

Unfortunate my iPad doesn't show the picture you posted but that s great!

I saw rice listed as a potentially difficult food, I hadn't thought it expanding, but that is really good feedback, thanks!

As I close in on 6 weeks post op, I was wondering if anyone has heard advice regarding eating sushi? Thanks

My biggest complaint for a solid 5 weeks post surgery was that I was tired all the time. During this past week, I have noticably been less tired (tomorrow is 6 weeks since surgery). I am not at my normal energy level. but finally it is improving substantially. I am sure yours will too!

Wow that is amazing, I'm very jealous! Great for you!!!

That's great, does that include any pre-surgery weight loss, or is that all since surgery?

I am at about 800 calories and my nutritionist at right about 5 1/2 weeks out.

Wow, i think I could eat one order's worth, but who knows... I probably am a bit early, I'll call my Dietician hotline on Tuesday, but appreciate the feedback

Thanks, I figured the rice was not good right away, I was more uncertain if there was a bacteria issue. (meanwhile i was sushi junkie before surgery)
