A1C is normal!
I just got the call from my PCP office. My A1C is normal. It was is the 9 range 2 yrs. ago and it was lowered due to being on four medications. Now it's normal. I'm at the high range of normal (5.6) and I'll take it. The biggest reason I had surgery was to get off the medications. Just happy! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Thank you @Wax_Poetic. Excellent work dropping 17 lbs. so far. I found out adding Crystal Lite can help increase Water consumption. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Pain on Left Side
The left side is where the majority of the surgery happens which is why it's so sore. When did you have surgery? It took about 3 weeks for me before it felt normal again. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

@@DRKExpressions Check with your doctor's office. You may be able to use Miralax or Benefiber on a daily basis to help. The numbers typically stand for highest weight, surgical weight, and current weight. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Hey @ Diamndgrl @ L. Knight Surgery went well. Very little pain. I always wake up a little out of it from anesthesia. I start the soft food stage today. I'm getting in my liquids. Protein has been a struggle since I'm lactose intolerant now. I think I will try an Isopure Protein Drink. Weight loss is averaging 3-5 lbs. a week. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

August Bypass Buddies?
Thank you. I appreciate it. I've been trying to consume a 10 calorie pack of Jello for two days. I think today I will be finished with it. Just an example of what it is like on day 2 post op. Water is going well. I think I will get in at least 60 oz. today. Meds are done for the day except another dose of Omeprazole. I also need to go by my local pharmacy so I can get help with the Lovenox shots. I bent the needle yesterday before use. FYI...don't take an Oxy and try to watch a video. Epic fail for me.

I made it. Surgery went well. A little sore but otherwise feeling ok. Feels like I've done 1000 sit-ups. I didn't sleep well last night but hopefully I'll make up for it tonight. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Am I too cautious?
He's just going to pick me up on Monday morning. It limits my exposure. I feel better about it. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App
