You should have no problem doing any sport or exercise you did prior to surgery once you are completely healed and cleared by your doc.

Thanks for the review. I am going to pass on my Fitbit one to my sister after I get the Jawbone up3 I requested for Xmas.
-
Cooking the meal! 2 days of prep and cooking. Maybe some treadmill in the morning.
-
I seem to have settled at around 60-80 grams of carbs a day. My losses are better at the lower end and with higher Protein. Right now I'm in my 2nd month of a stall.
-
As I posted in another thread "those Isopure zero carb drinks go down a lot easier with a shot of vodka in them". Anyway, you're fine. Just don't do it every day.
-
oops!
-
My favorite is Sabra.
-
GNC has it.
-
That sounds yummy. Thanks for posting!
-
It should get a little better each day. Good luck!
-
Mayo is fine.
-
That looks yummy! I didn't get anything, not even Water, the first day. The 2nd day, when I could show that I could sip some Powerade zero, they sent me home. ?!?!? I didn't get any of that delicious food, um, liquid. Oh wait, I did get some kind of barium concoction to test for leaks.

There's a section on this site all about Mexico. Here you go...http://www.bariatricpal.com/forum/486-mexico-self-pay-gastric-sleeve-surgery/

When are you allowed to progress to the next stage? I think at 3 weeks I was allowed pureed food. Stuff like refried Beans with cheese, mushy tuna salad.
-
I've been going up and down 2 lbs for a month now. It is getting tiresome, but it happens. Weight loss is not linear.
-
Have you considered seeing a therapist about it? It sounds like a form of OCD.
-
I know what tumeric is and have it in my spice cabinet. I just never heard of it in this context.
-
Huh? I have never heard of a Tumeric capsule.
-
I don't know. Try side stretches and swinging your arms around. Sorry, I never had the gas problem.
-
Do you not have A/C where you work? Even if you don't, 64oz. of Water a day is the recommended amount for everyone. I'm not sure I understand the issue.
-
I don't know of anyone who could get the full 60 grams in right away. Just keep taking tiny sips. You will start feeling better soon.
-
Thanks for mentioning the name change. I thought I was having another senior moment.
-
The Protein helps in healing. You will have to try something. Can you have greek yogurt? Sip on some warm broth. Try Isopure zero carb, which is more like a clear fruity drink.
-
Call your surgeon and let them know.

Nothing really held me back. I've never been one to worry or expend a lot of energy on being afraid of things. I just forged ahead once I finished the research phase.
