Sassy in pink

Im also 3 1/2 months out. Plain Water is finally working for me. It just took time. Im taking a stool softener every day which has helped me stay regular.

My sister take this Aloe Vera gel pills and they work wonders for her but I don't want to depend on a pill for me to have a BM! But I might try them because I don't want to be constipated ever again! I hope that I can drink plain water again! Thank you everybody for your suggestions and all your help!

I'm 31/2 months out and 47 pounds lost (having a HARD time drink all my water) :0(

Congrats you're doing amazing!! This is me at 10 weeks and lost 32.6 but tomorrow is my weigh in day so will see how I do? I love my sleeve!! Hope you don't mind me posting my pic in your thread?! ;0)

I been having them too and some people from my Facebook group had then too! I don't take medication for pain and I'm two weeks out! Good luck and hope this dreams go away soon!

This is a good way to show people WE ALL ARE DIFFERENT, and just because some of us do great from day one that don't mean we all have to be the same!! Hope you feel better soon and call your doctor and let him know who you're feeling! 5 months is to long for you to be on no regular food! Hope you feel better soon! Keep us posted!

Sorry to hear you are going thru this no matter the reason for this problem! Hope you feel better soon!!

My surgery is tomorrow. I've told my job I'm having my gallbladder out as the surgery and recovery time are similar. I work with two men in my office area and about 75 ppl in the building. I said I was going on a diet when I started my preop. The guys in my office haven't mentioned it but a few women in the building have when I've turned down birthday cake. I'm engaged so I have a good excuse for a dramatic weight loss. -MM

Good luck tomorrow! I was thinking abut saying the same to my family because they want get together a week after my surgery and I don't known how I'm going to beg feeling? My surgery is Friday!

I forgot to ask my doctor! : /

Congratulations! Hope everything goes well with the rest of your test! Good luck!

Hi! Kris for how long you are going to do the pre-op diet NOW??? My surgeon told me to do the same as you two days of just liquids! But my surgery is on the April 25! I was told when I went to my seminar that we didn't have do two weeks or more weeks of the pre-op diet so I was going to start on Monday. But today when I went to my pre-op appt with my surgeon he told me I gain weight but I don't know how much and I'm freaking out! Last night I had dinner at a sea food buffet so I was super thirsty after so I drank a bunch of Water and only went to the restroom once! But I'm scared now! How about if it's not water retention? Would it do a big difference if I start today or Monday???

Hi! I'm having surgery next Friday April 25 and my surgeon told my to do (no bread, no rice, no sweets, no soda) only Protein and some veggies for until Tuesday then on Wednesday he wants my to start a liquid diet ONLY! I'm going to be honest here! I had my preop appt with my surgeon today and he told me I fain weigh but he didn't say how much? But I had sea food buffet last night and when I got home I was super thirsty so I drank a bunch of Water before bed and only went to the restroom like once and the once in the morning! Could it be that I retain water plus I'm sure if I was that thirsty I ate to much salt!??

Wow! I wish I will lose that much when my time comes! So are you hungry at all? Or do you get mind hunger?

How much have lost since surgery? What are you eating? Are you posting on post-op forum now? If you are so I can look for you I don't want to be asking you what you already post it or same questions others have asked you! :0)

Yay!!! Congrats!!!! A few more weeks and you begging you new journey! How exciting!!!

Congrats! So how are feeling after two weeks?

Good job!! Keep up the good work and the reward is going to be fantastic!!!

Congrats on your surgery! You might want to call your doctor to prescribe you some meds! Good luck! P.s have you try any over the counter nausea meds? If not maybe you should try until you get hold of your doctor!

I wonder if the won ton Soup broth is ok after the surgery? Hmmmm!

You might want to ask your surgeon or nutritionist! Good luck!! I won't have surgery until March 7th so I'm not doing the diet yet! On the paperwork the surgeon office gave it said 4 day before surgery of liquid diet and clear the day before!
