I'm 1 month post op. slept in recliner for a week then moved to the bed with a wedge pillow and many others!! Still miss sleeping on my side n belly!

So I'm guessing it's normal.

I have pain in my abdomen. Feels like a pulling n tugging when I sit n stand or bend down n up again. Burns like a hot poker too! Is it just my muscles getting used to being used again or what??? 1 month post op. anyone else feel this too?

I drink all the time! It crazy! I'm probably drinking well over a cup an hour... Especially at work!

Does anyone feel like they are thirsty all the time? I feel like I can't get enough to drink! I'm 1 month post op and I am constantly drinking water, milk, juice etc. I can't find anything to quench my thirst!

Try enjoying fish off the menu... The trout at longhorn steakhouse is awesome!!

I'm three weeks out today from gastric bypass... I've lost 40 pounds... Down 2 shirt and bra cup sizes. My feet are also skinnier! I have about another 110 pounds to loose. I know what size I want to be... Don't care much about the weight. I just want to be healthy! This is MY year to focus on me and get healthy!! I'm amazed at how quickly the weight came off... I have started to platau but one I'm cleared for actual exercise... I'm sure it will start falling off again!! So glad I found this app! All the threads have been such a great help! I love reading all of them! God Bless you all on your journeys!!

I also have dry mouth! And the film on my teeth! I think the protein has a lot to do with it! I'm brushing constantly!

I'm 2 weeks out and have went down 2 cup sizes! And 2 shirt sizes. Still waiting on the bottom half to get skinny!! Lol

My goal: I told my 9 yr old son that once I lost enough weight that next summer we are going to an amusement park and ride rides together! Can't wait to enjoy life to its fullest! And not have to worry if the bar will lock, or if the seatbelt latches!! He can't wait!!

I either take milk of magnesia or dulcolax. Every 2 days. If not its horrible!! I'm 17 days post op! But I've also been told that it is a lifetime thing now! So get used to it gals! :0(
