I took my pills this morning like I do every morning and I have like a severe burning in my belly and am dry heaving! I tried eating some yogurt to cool my tummy down but it's not helping. Has this happened to any of y'all??

I'm about to start eating soft foods, does it get easier to workout once you start eating? Right now I have barley any energy and get very fatigued after walking for about 30 mins

I'm not sure I'm finishing up my 2 weeks liquids, I'm pretty sure soft foods and purée is close to the same thing. My nutritionist told me "puréed" just meant chewed really well.

Ahhhh!!! I'm 5 days away from being able to eat! Well soft foods anyway, I am so hungry!!

What are some MUST HAVES that I need on my grocery list! recipes are nice too!

????????????

I am 4 weeks out. Crazy bed pizza too first thing I ate on pureed was a low fat mazzerella and Marinara sauce 1 egg omelet. It helped curb those cravings even though I could only eat half of it.

I am so excited for puréed stage I can't wait to munch down on some eggs (x

Oh yeah you rock buddy!!!!!!!!!!

Omg you are a hero I can't wait till I can eat this lol!!!!!

Surgery went great, the 2 days after surgery were so horrible for me I know some people had it easy but I was miserable mainly cause I couldn't drink anything. Now 4 days out I feel soooo much better still sore but I can walk around, TAKE SHOWERS! and drink. I sleep a lot, idk if it is the pain meds or from me only sleeping every 2 hours in the hospital. I'm very happy with how I'm feeling now (:

Thank you so much!

And yes dr Patel is awesome!!

Within the next 2 weeks I will be in the puree food stage of my bariatric journey! I only know the basics of what i can eat, i need help finding recipes that are yummy and I wont mind eating. If anyone has any tips or ideas for me it would be awesome to know! Im not too picky im so excited to eat some eggs lol!

I'm currently having a cup of sleepy time tea, I can feel everything in my new belly! Warm liquids give me the strangest sensation!

Today I'm feeling pretty good, limited movement but I'm getting around. I'm also so glad to be home, I slept like a baby last night and most of the morning! I can't wait to see more progress I have seen a little difference. Just excited for being able to engage in some physical activity (hopefully within the next few weeks)!  

Kinda in pain but not As much as yesterday! Got my catheter taken out and am trying to walk around. I can't wait to get home all these nurses checking up on me when I just dose off is driving me crazy!!!

Thank you so much! I'm excited ☺️

Thank you and of course I will!

I had to go to the store today and food everywhere while you can't eat anything is Sooo awful! Then I got some diet peach tea snapple in my belly, all better now! Mmmmmm. My dad even got me a cozy warm outfit for my trip to the hospital tomorrow!

Thank you ladies! And the two weeks goes by sooo fast!

Cannot wait!!! Kinda nervous and idk about the catheter but it's all worth it lol

I'm drinking nectar strawberry kiwi it's the only thing that doesn't make me gag. You can get it at Vitamin shoppe they have a bunch of flavors!

And it's just been taking me a couple days to go, I was used to going every day and now it's like every 2 days.

Oh my god yall I never thought I'd be this close, getting kind of nervous, but excited!!! I don't know if I've lost any weight on my 2 week pre op diet I'm sure I have I just need a scale. Any idea where to get a good accurate scale that doesn't cost too much??

Omg this was like last year.

I tried EAS drinks and would gag every time I took a drink so I went to Vitamin Shoppe and got some Protein Powder calls nectar and I tried a few single packets of different flavor and got strawberry kiwi, mix that with a little bit of crystal light and the whey Protein taste diminishes! So good but when you poop it's red lol

My grandfather called me hippopotamus, fat butt my entire life, he's the one paying out of pocket for my surgery. I love him so much but he does say some blunt hurtful things. I just take it as motivation. But another thing I think is when I start loosing weight I look heavier because my giant stomach roll becomes like 3 smaller rolls. Idk haha maybe that will help

19 about to be 20 and I'm scheduled for next Wednesday! I'm on my liquid diet now and it sucks sooooo bad! But not unbearable, just ready to move forward!

I will not miss fat squishing noises during sex, and I will be excited for awesome, can do whatever sex!! I'm sure my boyfriend would be happy too! ????

I thought I was the only one crying over food lol! So hard to stay strong

Awe thank you so much! It's so hard!!
