Penguinlovex8 checking in to see how your doing??? Hope your feeling better ‼️

Really hope your doing good today!!!

Shannon45, That's awesome news .. I'm 20days post op myself. I've managed to lose 21lbs & I'm thrilled I'll be glad when my incision sites aren't as tender & I can move without feeling like I'm ripping my tummy .. I'm still struggling with my protein intake

Good luck today!!!

My surgery was 11/24/14 like Amyllf2's story I was out of the hospital with in 24 hrs of my surgery .. That pre op, recovery, and room time 24hrs start to finish. I too have a large hematoma over and around one of my incision sites. It's a attention grabber at times lol. I'm still more comfortable in sweat pants than jeans. I'm not really eating much most days I have to make myself eat .. I'm still tired but I think once I can get my Protein intake up That to shall pass. But yes it's surgery there's going to be discomfort (for some more than others) take your pain meds like there ordered, rest, sip your fluids & don't expect to much the first few days.... Everyone recovers at their on pace. Each day will be better but like many I'm still looking forward to laying on my side too lol.. Small victories are MAJOR victories at this point !! I'm 34 lbs down & looking forward to dropping more ASAP!!!

I'm 2weeks post op still on liquids from most part . However I'm able to do about 2oz of soup with no problem. I haven't vomited or had any dumping problems . I'm kinda wondering what's really going on cause I don't want to eat or drink .. But I'll chew ice like a mad woman (lol) I can't stand the protein, I know it's important for be but its hard to do. I'm kinda at the point of wondering what was I thinking cause I see how friends & family are looking at me like they can't tell I've lost any weight ... But I have just not as much as others we know have

Wow, you look amazing ????

????????????????????????way to go!!

@@jessica2014 I'm right there with you I'm 6days post surgery & I'm doing good to drink 20 grams of protein but hey we will get there ... My doctor keeps telling me as long as my fluid intake stay at least 40oz right now he knows I'm staying some what hydrated ... But the threat of being re admitted to the hospital is helping keep me motivated to try harder I will admit

Awesome!!!! I'm 6 days post op & your amazing!!!! I will be thrilled to do 1/2 that in 4 months but got to admit I would love to lose what you have ... Keep doing it!!! Your AWESOME!!!

Hi ! I'm 6 days out and I'm amazed at how I feel from day one to today. It's crazy I discharged from the hospital 24hrs after my surgery (yeah I was shocked too) but I was glad to get home lol. I rested thanksgiving day (no cooking for me!) & went Black Friday shopping (I walked no wheelchair for me) but omg I paid for it the next day .. The last few days have been ruff cause I think I'm trying to over do it. My main problem is I know I'm not getting enough fluids or proteins ... Then to I'm able to drink chicken broth & love it but I know I can't keep drinking that . I'm open to any & all advise that can help ... Thanks in advance

Can I ask how far post op everyone on is ? Cause I'm able to do like a small mouth full at once & I'm scared I've done stretched my pouch ... But I'm not in no way getting the fluids I should be . I'm 6 days post op & worried I've done messed something up. I can take about 2oz maybe at one time but if I sip I can do a little more . Any one else doing the same ?

Thanks!! for all the useful information everyone

Hi.. Ok here goes I'm 5days out from gastric bypass. I was discharged after only 24hrs & thought I was doing good. However today has brought new challenges .. I'm scared my pouch maybe stretched or something cause I can sip about 3oz in a hour .. With no major pain but I have a knotted feeling in my throat. Has anyone had this I've lost 5lbs & really don't won't a sit back at this point .. Or am I just over reacting ? Any help/ advise would be great .. Thanks in advance
