It's also genetic. Hopefully you're one of the lucky ones! My arms are going to be an issue, I can already tell [emoji30] -

The Baritastic App is amazing! -
31!!? After a month I went back to a large time release capsule...hope it's ok.

Ack, "fishing"! Wonder why my surgeon was so liberal about me taking my meds without crushing? Fortunately I didn't have to have a fishing expedition!
-
Same here. All my booklets said to crush them but the surgeon said it'd be fine to swallow them. I still do chewable vitamins and calcium citrate though.

Oh man, I remember you! I'm so glad you're finally getting this done. You sure deserve it! -
Everyone is so different. I had very little pain I was mostly sore like I had done crunches. I had no gas pain at all. Try not to freak yourself out!

When did you start driving

I could drive as soon as I was off pain meds, but I didn't drive for about ten days because I didn't have anywhere to go [emoji4] -

Idk if it's the shake but those made me feel sick. -
Yes! I asked my surgeon and he said it may or may not come back (thanks man!). So, 6 weeks later, it's starting to feel normal. Surgeon said if it didn't come back to normal I'd get used to it.

What shakes are you using now? Try just water while you're feeling nauseated. I had to order them online but if you have a GNC near you they'd have a better variety. -
Call your Dr. Someone should be on call.

Can you try a different shake with different ingredients? I couldn't handle the premier protein shakes and has to order unjury brand. -

Lol! This cracked me up! I'll let you sit with me at the cool kid table! RNY is a great surgery (even if I didn't choose it)! I'm jealous of the faster weight loss you all have! -
This update made my morning!

I have always wanted to paint but I was waiting for the cold weather. I'm envious of your energy. I'm still lacking much. I will have to find something though. Eating for comfort is no longer an option.

It took me about a week to be able to sleep on my sides. Hated that!
-
I'm drinking regular coffee (2 cups per day) and was sleeved 5/22.

By the time you start purée you'll feel much better! First week is lousy but it gets way better.
