Big boy I had a battle with hiccups too omg they were awful

Well i do sip.. I get about 5 sips an ounce and i sip all day (when I say drink, im not meaning gulping) i walked quite a distance last night.. Probably why i was feeling hungry so late.

I had my surgery on Monday the 15th and i feel like i am drinking too much....like i can drink 1/2 a bottle of Water in about 30-45 minutes and when i drink my meals i drink about 4 oz in about 45 minutes....i just feel like i am doing something wrong.... Tonight i feel hungry and idk why.. Im scared to death of stretching my pouch out so i measure everything. Actually after reviewing it takes me an hour to drink 1/2 bottle of water...so it seems normal i am just worried about it

I am using no sugar added Carnation instant Breakfast with fat free milk (10 ounces) and adding extra scoop of chocolate Protein powder from GNC that has 20 grams of protein a scoop...makes it about 35 grams a shake...tastes great

My surg was over and i was in my room fairly early.... They let me come home on Wednesday as well....i had gas pains in my stomach....something awful....I took mylicon drops... Helped tremendously.... Drinking my shake as we speak

How did you all do?

I am 6 days post op and was wondering about yogurt.....a few people i have talked too said they lived on it....im doing cream Soups and stuff as well but was jw if the yogurt is in fact okay to do.

Omg wow you look great...which surgery did you have?

Did you have the rny lucky?

My surgeon makes us have a gall scan before surgery.... If there is stones he goes ahead and takes it out before hand that way it wont have to be done after....real good recovery time...good luck to you.

Mine is at 1030 am on monday!!

Oh it's bad.. I have wanted to cry all day and its not even about food, its because im hungry and the liquids aren't really doing it for me

The mango peach green tea is amazing!!!! Seriously amazing!!!! how long was your liquid diets?

Honestly im struggling but tomorrow is day 5 and half way over....im just hungry... But i will make it;

Love all of these goals ladies and gentleman!! Keep up the good work!! I also want to be able to skydive... There is a weight limit....and i want cute clothes not "granny" clothes... And my baby girl will have a mommy that can do things with her

All great goals guys!!!! Keep it up

That's amazing though!!! Good job

Wow that's good...this 5k is very hilly and strenuous....i did it last year and pushed myself and i finished.... I just dont want to push too hard too soon....was two weeks post op too soon for you? Did you have any problems?

May i ask when you started walking after surgery? I am having my surgery on the 15th of sept and I am signed up for a 5k oct 18th....we can walk it of need be...but i would like to jog some of possible

Kingsport, Tennessee

I am on my ten day diet before my surgery and it is by far the hardest thing i have done so far....but i want to ride roller coasters and not worry about whether or not i will fit on the ride....so that's my goal!

I lost at each appointment but my insurance didn't require it....he is more worried i guess about the liver shrinking? Idk....i just do what im told so i can get this over with lol

I did my 6 month weight loss...i was required by my insurance to maintain not lose....i don't see him again until the morning of surgery....he's a great surgeon just very strict

Yeah my surgeon refuses to do the surgery if you don't strictly follow the diet....he said he would be able to tell once he gets in there...im having the RNY...not sure how true that is...but he said he would stitch me back up and not do it if o couldn't even follow the ten day diet
