Don't you just love Dr Choi?! How are you coming along? Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

I'm having issues with dehydration and I'm now a month out and no regrets. I did regret it the first 5 days after surgery when i had such a huge problem with nausea and vomiting. Now... no way no how! Can't wait to see my progress 6 mos and then a year from now!

I use the pool too. I was told a month after surgery. I'm going on Tuesday.

Good luck to you!!Tomorrow i start solids thank god! Lol I've been on eggs and stuff buy now it's time to incorporate real food! I've been waiting for this. Hopefully i can get more protein in.

@@gebbiabn you're so right. That's the long and short of it and how it was explained to me by my surgeon. Which is why i revised from band to bypass.

Is that all you put in it? Unsweetened almond vanilla and Ice with protein powder?

@@2twinkle Thank you so much! Please feel free to post whatever you can. I just received my protein shots. I just opened one and smelled it. Bad idea. Lol. The flavor i got is fruit punch and i could basically smell the protein powder. I've yet to taste it though. I refrigerated it hoping it'll help the taste. Ohhh and I'm familiar with the bariatric pal store, that's where i got the shots from.

I've been weighing daily since I've been home from surgery on Nov 16. Only because I'm about 2.2 lbs away from getting out of the 300s!! I day of surgery i was 332. Hopefully once i get to 299 I'll breathe a sigh of relief lol.

I get the hiccups out of the blue for no reason.

Some ppl realize, once you have your surgery and getting to goal and staying there. .. ppl live. Not just on sugar free, fat free and lite stuff only. Ppl become less rigid. It's really hard to explain if you haven't been there yet. But you can become lax to a point. @@SAD HATTER is right. That happens. But. . Eating bread at 3 weeks out is insane. Smh

Bronx, NY ☺

That is horrible! And ya know what it doesn't surprise me. That is why only family knows. Was considering telling once I'm on the road to great success but this gives me pause. I'm doing the right thing.

Thank you @@Renee2015 Not a fan of Greek yogurt, barely stomach regular light yogurt and fairlife is a no. Thank you for the suggestions though. ☺ And you're right it would Def be good i got almost all my protein in at one shot.

Thank you @@bandedat19 ☺ i appreciate it.

@@bandedat19 I'm OK. I had a rough cpl days in the hospital because i had had a small cold before surgery. So i had a bit of phlegm. After surgery i had bad retching and nausea. Lasted about 3 days but eventually went home. Pain was never really bad just sore, felt like i was punched and kicked in the stomach. But all good. My weight loss has been better now than when i had the band. Day of surgery on Nov 16th i Was 332lbs as of today I'm 303. I'm proud of it.
