  1. It went well. I was surprised how much he liked painting pottery. We made wine goblets.
  2. Well, I really didn't think it was dehydration but I am sure another 16oz of fluids won't hurt me.
  3. I am about 8 weeks post-op. Getting in all my Protein, Vitamins and fluids. I am experiencing TERRIBLY dry lips. My skin is not especially dry. I am putting tons on different lip balms on without success. Any thoughts?
  4. 8 weeks out and tolerating hot sauce and salsa no problem.
  5. Since surgery, I have had 3 glasses of wine and one shot of whiskey on the rocks. I was a big beer drinker before surgery.
  6. My husband is the only one who knows about my surgery. I had dinner with some of my friends last night. They were discussing how they need to lose weight (I was unusually quiet). My one friend said well I am just going to have gastric surgery and take the easy way out and the other said yes! And that is why only my husband knows.
  7. The theanine did work. I wish I had taken it sooner.
  8. Well I planned a surprise date night for Saturday. We start with a couples massage. We move to dinner (where I plan to have chicken poblano soup) then end the night with making a pottery piece at Sunshine Glaze. Hope my husband likes it!
  9. I am a nurse with an up and down job like you described. I went back to work in 10days. I did well except being a little fatigued.
  10. I have been on this forum for about 3 months. I continue to be flabbergasted at the level of negativity and know it alls (who are giving bad information). I am 8 weeks postop and doing well. I guess it it time to leave bariatricpal.

  17. Are you getting enough fluids in like G2?
