Just wondering.....
It's hard for me to go also. I am still doing full liquids, but it's still hard! I should be good and cleansed by now, but I still don't go until 4-5 days later. I am getting worried something else might be wrong. pureed foods.....I am still having a lot of trouble with them. I'm so sick of liquids, but what else can I do.

1 Year Surgeversary
Oh my! You look Beautiful!! Question.....I am 4 weeks post op today. I want to exercise but I don't have the energy to start! I really to want to take advantage but how can I get started. My PA asked me if I was interested in working out, I told yes. She just said "OK, that's good". I just don't have the energy. What suggestion do you have. I walk for 10 min every 4 hours....I still scared of the blood clots. Congrats! I can't wait until it's my turn

Burbs, throat noises, toots, and otherwise unladylike behavior!
Me, me, me too! I'm sick of saying "excuse me". My husband says the same "you alright, need some water"? I thought it was just when I ate something new....not the case.

Not doing good with foods!
I went to see my NUT, she said "you're fine, it just takes some people longer than others to progress". She gave me a list of new things to try on a daily basis, so I will give it a go. By the way......I lost 6 lbs since the 8th. I know that from not being able to eat anything but broth....YUCK! I am so ready to try Wendy's chili.....small of course. My husband had a large one last night...he said "it will probably take you 2 days to eat this". Yep!

How many people took their husband with them?
My husband was at work, he took off 1/2 days to get the kids off the bus and take care of them (7 kids, 5 at home). My two daughters stay with me the whole way. Husband took care of the kids. He asked me which would I prefer......I honestly told him that since the hospital was 2 1/2 hours away........If something happened at home he would already be there, instead of racing to get home.

How long was your stay in the hospital?
Me, 2 nights....but the lady next to me only 1 night....same surgery, we got sleeved. Honestly, I didn't want to go home in one night. The first two days were HELL for me!

Not doing good with foods!
I guess I'm not as alone as I thought I was! Suppose to go see my NUT on Wed. Hopefully she can give me some insight on what's going on with my stomach. I honestly don't think I could live off Turkey broth, Jello, and popsicles. I tried some tomato soup (1 tablespoon) and I was nauseated all day until about 11pm......ate it at 12p. What's wrong with me people!!! I hope all of us get some type of balance with our stomachs soon. I really feel bad for us, especially after reading the posts...but I have to say I am glad I am not in this by my self.

Not doing good with foods!
I'm 3 weeks out and still can't eat pureed foods! I am sooooo frustrated, I have not graduated from full liquids yet. I tried a egg Monday and it did not do well with my stomach at all. It seems every food I try is bad for my stomach. Ok, through venting!
