Already thank you for all the advice!! Everybody. I do take children's Motrin with a crushed up Excedrin in it once a day for migraines. I have had severe migraine since my surgery was done. It is weird everyone says to don't take the Motrin ibuprofen stuff to my surgeon recommended me to take the Motrin. He Said if it works that's what matters.

I'm 12 days post op.. And been on the purée stage since day 5. I'm starting to try other foods a little bit. Still scared to do any kind of meat right now. The chicken in the crockpot with dark meat buffalo sauce sounds yummy..thinking about trying that very soon. Once I meet the two week mark. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am 11days post op, I have walked a little bit. And, wondering when I can start exercising a lot more. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Are you just eating the chicken with buffalo sauce by itself? Have to ask you questions about this because buffalo sauce is by favorite. But I know it's a little spicy so I didn't know if we can have spicy. I'm looking forward to your Feed Back on this... :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

You did chicken in the crockpot with buffalo sauce that is my favorite thing ever! I was really worried wondering if we could have buffalo sauce again.. thinking probably not. Glad to hear it work for you I hope that works for me! Are you just five days post op and you can eat that? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Oh Okay.. I'm actually 11 days post op. Now Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Underneath the incision I do agree as I feel like a little knot. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had five incisions and they are all pretty small except for one of mine is --just a teeny bit longer then the other one , the incision is. And it's the only one that hurts more than the others. Everything is healing great but this one incision hurts and it has sharp pains in it . If I didn't have this one incision hurting everything would be great. Anybody else have the same experience ?

I do soft chewies for all my Vitamins. And, powder vitamins that I mix up into milk. My surgeon told me that I cannot take a pill. And plus all my pain meds and everything --I'm taking is all liquid form. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Prince van Halen@ i'm doing a lot of liquids but I'm also doing in the puréed food phase my surgeon told me, I could start that a couple days after my surgery if I felt comfortable. What are you eating on for your puréed stage? And just curious how long is it your puréed stage tell you get a solid foods? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
