I take Biotin once a day at night. 5000

What are you eating to get all that Protein 6 weeks out. I am lucky to get 20 a meal and no snacking. Suggestions would be great or share your meal plan with me at crazygirlmarrero13@live.com. Thanks

I haven't been on much since I returned to work. Sure wish I could be eating all the food options you have. Counting the days. 10 more until my dr visit and hopefully off liquids

I have the same rash around my incision. Thinking I am also allergic. Strange thing is they did not appear until12 days postop

If the Facebook is complete private and no one will see my post. Please add me. Crazygirlmarrero13@live.com

Thanks

My short term disability has been approved with 100% pay. Yeah. Currently I am scheduled to go back to work on Oct 31. I am 9 days postoperative and still can not get around much. Lots of lower back pain and incision pain. Bearable enough not to use pain meds if I don't move it doesn't hurt. Still trying to walk as much as I can. Increasing fitbit steps every day but haven't made it to 2000 yet, maybe today. Follow up with my dr tomorrow. I have lost 20 lbs since prep diet with 8 of those since surgery. Of course I weigh every day per dr orders and no change in the past 2 days. Not stressing yet still swollen.

I had Isopure in Orange, purple bottle and the pineapple orange. Try are not too bad. I did not have a problem drinking them. They are expensive but worth the Protein. Give it a try if you don't like them GNC allowed you to return them

@ Brian T Po. I use to get that pain in the middle of my chest day 1. My dr said it was spasms not gas and gave me a script of dicyclomine witch I take 4 times a day and it doesn't happen anymore. each day's gets easier I am waiting for the surgery pain to go away. Feel better soon. Sounds like you are doing good on your Protein. Half is better than none

6 days post op and not sure if I am doing things wrong or if I am just lucky. I have no nausea I am on Clear Liquids still which means Isopure flavored water and broths. I am not hungry, but I can sit here and sip all day long. Never get a feeling of being full no gas pain. Getting in 64 oz of fluids and 60 Protein a day. Feel nervous since I don't feel restriction I could probably drink more if I wanted. I do have lower side near back pain and some from largest incision Just wondering if anyone else does not feel restriction. my post op dr apt is oct 24.

My office knows I am out for surgery but never asked me for what. I had to have an additional surgery of having a stomach tumor removed. So my stomach for sleeve is a little smaller than normal. Still haven't decided what to say if they ask. Might just say I had a tumor removed from my stomach. Still waiting on my biopsy results. Say some extra prayers for me please

I am also nervous and excited. I have prepared myself for the worst and hope it is better. Maybe I am crazy ,but I felt so much better about the procurer once I watched it on it on YouTube. I take a platelet med and I was concerned with blood clotting since I am still taking them until 7 days prior. Good luck. Oct 14 10:30 will be here before I know it

I have to use 5 vacation days then short term disability at 80 percent kicks in. I wanted to take 3-4 weeks off but my dr won't allow says two weeks. It's not fair to your employer. ????

My thought on cheating is if I can not do this 10 day liquid diet then I am not ready to have the procedure done. This is a tool and I don't want to go back to my old eating habits and regain weight. I am now on day 4 of liquid diet and I am surprised it has not been harder. I think my mindset is in the right place. I am the type of person that can't have just one bite or one cookie. So I just have to stay away. I don't think you messed up your prep but I would not let it happen again. Need to shrink that liver for easier surgery. Good luck
