I have had Mirena for 3 years and have not had a period in at least 2 years. Now I have had 2 mini periods since surgery (7 weEkes ago). I am scheduling an apt to see what is going on.

I am also six weeks out and just had a taco this week. I was worried too, but my nut says like 3/4 cup food and I don't think it is really more than that, so I am hoping is ok.

I have been surprised to see such disparity in post op diets. Mine was clear liquids till I was out of hospital. Then one week full liquid, one week, purée and two week soft. I didn't have a problem moving Through the stages quickly.

Hi everyone, I am one month post op and in the dreaded stall. My stall has been going on for 2 weeks. i have seen lots of threads on the stall, but not Much on how to end it. Will it stop on its own, and if so, when? Or what did people do to end the stall? I would appreciate any Advice?

I went back after 3 weeks and was sore and exhausted every day. I am 4 weeks now and this week is much better. I wish I had stayed out 4 whole weeks.

I had mine 2 weeks ago today and down 12 from date of surgery

My doctor says 3 weeks

I was told sugar free Popsicles and fudgesicles were ok. I am curious myself about sugar free ice cream

I am in the puréed phase and feeling the same thing. I was desperate to leave clear and then full liquids behind. But am now going through the same feelings again. Tonight at least I went out for dinner and just had soup. I only had the broth, but being able to have some of that normalcy of ordering normal food, Even though I only had the liquid, really made it easier. I think for me it's finding A way to make it more normal, and less deprived will help get me through it. But it is VERY hard mentally to go through these phases,

My doctor recommended a Centrum chewable. While it doesn't taste great, it's not bad enough to make me feel sick at all.

I am a newbie but 43 lbs in less than two months sounds amazing. Try to stay positive.

i am only one week post op and by doctor Indicated people return after two weeks. I am worried two weeks is two fast. I am feeling pretty good by sleeping tons and still having pain. Also I would Prefer to be back on solid foods when I return. I did do a Short term disability claim so at my doctors whim. What is everyone else doing? Has anyone else done extended disability claims?

Hi, I just joined the forums. I had my sleeve done on October 21 and doing good so far. I'm curious to see what everyone is eating and also how fast people are returning to work.
