I have to call tomorrow see if he wants to see me bc they knew I was going get fluids. If they don't will be for a 3mo visit in February

Thanks for all the well wishes. I went to after hour clinic and they gave me iv fluids. Feel so much better just gotta figure out how not to get dehydrated again since water isn't my friend lol

I did. I'm headed to lake after hours to get checked out and was told to call my doc tomorrow.

Wow so awesome! I'm almost 3 weeks out and already loving the new me and I'm down 23lbs I can't wait to reach goal and have amazing before and after pics.

No maybe 2/3 times and its very dark and very little. I'm also having dizzy spells, muscle cramps, headaches, and my eyes are really dry.

I was told not to drink out of straws idk if that's now or forever so I don't.

I wanted to go to womans too but my ins wouldn't let me. I love drinking water its been just since surgery I can't. It has taken me all day to drink 32oz today Thinking I may need get iv fluids but not sure :/

Yes I think so. Yes I can eat popcicles and ice but just water won't go down easy. I'm praying for this all to line out quickly bc i ts making me crazy lol. I don't throw up just queasy feeling.

Dr. Leblanc. And who did urs? Where did u have it? I just started puree stage past Tue. Not all things are tolerated and not very much either lol. I know that's how supposed to be but still so wierd to me that 7 bites can fill me up. Today I skipped my protein and trying drink 32oz powerade 0. I'm so scared to be back in hospital dehydrated.

Hi. I had my surgery at OLOL in br. I'm 2 weeks and 3 days post op. Down 23lbs. I'm trying to stay hydrated bc I'm on verge of being dehydrated. I can hardly drink water it just doesn't go down well. Trying crystal light and powerade zero. Hoping it all goes well. How are u?

Went for check up yesterday and doc says I'm lil dehydrated that I have to try and up fluids or I'm gonna wind up getting admitted for iv. Uggghhh

2 week check up today for me too. I also had refried beans with fat free cheese lil salsa. It wad amazing but so crazy to only eat about 15 small bites and be full. I was down 22lbs today. I almost cried when u stepped on scale. I haven't been under 250lbs in over 10yrs and today it read 238 . Congrats on ur good report today.

Good luck on your journey. I wish I had taken before pics with bra or tank top and shorts or something. My doc took one front and side view but with clothes on. I was sleeved 11-12-13. Had my 2 week post op visit today and down 22lbs. Other then getting lil dehydrated my two weeks have been good. Trying to get my water intake up and looking forward to an amazing journey. Well wishes to u.

Thanks everyone for ur comments and help. I'm thinking it may be lack of water/fluid intake.

Haha ur too funny. The beans hardly went down I don't reacon I'd be able to do taco or burrito if I wanted to lol.

I'm 2 weeks out today recently started getting dizzy spells. If I turn my head, when I get up, move to quickly, etc...anyone else have this problem? Know why or what causes it? Going to doc for my 2week check up tomorrow hope to get answers. On the up side I ATE FOOD today went to taco bell with the family and ate half an order of pintos and cheese and it was yummy

I can eat ice no problem. I added lemonade packet to water yesterday and took me all day but drank a whole 20oz. I'm gonna keep trying bc i can feel my body needs more its just hard.

Ok thanks. I'll look into that

Called GNC store they have unflavored protein powder 25g/serving so I'm gonna get that and put it in everything I eat

I'm almost done with the full luquid stage but i went from having no problems with getting all my protein in with shakes to now I can barely get one down. I'm not a big sweets person and all the sweet drinking is really getting to me. Anyone have good ideas for puree stage on getting protein in where I don't have to drink as many sweet shakes?

Yes I drink 2 protein shakes a day. I'm using gladiator from smoothie king and it has 45g protein per shake. I'm on full liquid right now. My doc says try putting a small amount of flavoring in my water see if helps. I haven't tried yet bc I'm not big on flavored water but I guess I Will try.

Lol other then holes in my tummy and 1st night being so sick I too have felt this. I'm 8 days out and feel like I could go straight to solids. Getting all my potein in gotta work harder on mt water that's not going so well but getting hungry during the day.

Thanks. I will go check the pics out if I can find them lol. Still learning the sight. Felt so good this morning I put on my walking shoes and walked 1 1/2 miles. I'd feel so much better if my back would ease up. Its been hurting couple days.

I'm one week out and looking at everyone's before and after pics definitely keep me moving forward when I have doubts. Congrats! I'm down 13lbs and so excited!
