Constipation
My family doctor prescribed Linzess for me. I still take stool softeners twice daily. The Linzess is for when those aren't working well.

Anyone have bad leg cramps?
Try G2 Gatorade or Powerade Zero, until you can get to the doctor to have your potassium level checked.

Confessions from one who did not follow preop diet diet
I think for some, it's only natural for people with an unhealthy relationship with food to be hesitant in giving it up. The best part is that you learned the lesson and it won't hinder your results. The best to you!

Everything Sucks.
Stay the course! We all have stories of mind battles and struggles. It seems so hard now, because this is a major lifestyle change. Keep doing what you were instructed and the stall will eventually end. Hang in there!

Corsets and Gastric Sleeve
My surgeon advised against it. He said your pouch or sleeve is so small, he felt a corset would push food back up. Which is another problem, especially because acid reflux is common with the sleeve post op.

Fat Shaming Husband...so hurt
@@Bluesky1 I'm sorry you have to endure such a heartbreaking time in your marriage. Should you decide to stay, I believe a heartfelt conversation is definitely in order with your husband. You need to set boundaries as to the behavior you are willing to accept and stick to them. Please remind the Pastor that in Ephesians 5:25, he is commanded to love his wife as Christ loved the church; and his current behavior is not mirroring Christ's behavior. As a pastor he must strive to live by the entire bible, not just the easy parts. It is my prayer that God moves on both your hearts and allow you both to see and understand the baggage that both of you bought into the marriage. I pray that you are able the extend grace to your husband and that grace brings conviction upon his heart. I love you, but most importantly God loves you! Know that and feel it in your soul. This too shall pass.

Flexible Spending Account?
I used my FSA for my hospital co-pay and pre-op testing. I'm not sure if you can use FSA for a procedure in Mexico because it is linked to your insurance.
