Wrong how? Wrong surgery? Having surgery period? What are the concerns? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yeah. I was out in about 27 hours. And out of my head for about 8 of those. Not gonna need much. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

We started purée on day 7 but 5-6 meals of 1/4-1/3 cup per meal. I had no problem tolerating the purée. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

If you puréed one of those it probably comes in at the max fill line. The issue would be making better choices to fill up on. Best of luck to you. But don't get discouraged over your sleeve size over that. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My plan has us eating 4 meals a day between 3/4 cups to one cup in size. As for watermelon, when you chew it, it is going to compact so that's how you need to imagine your ability to hold the food. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

We were allowed moist meats including chicken on day 10. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It may sound weird but I take in a lot of Water and then partition my swallow so it goes down not all at once. I have worried about taking in too much in a short period. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was told not to lift my son (or anything over a gallon of milk) for 6 weeks. I did not comply, but I never had any pain from picking him up. After a week, if you have no complications, you might be tired, but should be able to do what you need to do.

If you have a plan follow it. For not laying in a hospital bed for a month's sake. I don't think eating that soon is as risky but with the right stuff and puréed.

If you were not given a dietary plan by a nutritionist tell me and I'll send you mine. It's more progressive than a lot that I read on here. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yeah the chips could hurt you. And sounds like a lot of carbs. You're starting very early with the things you're needing to learn to do without in the early stages. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

You have red blood cells that are dying all of the time. Poop is not just food.

Eat less than you expect to be able to. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Im still learning this myself. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Had a glass of red wine at two weeks without incident. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Example, yes, seeing you drop your weight will make him proud and possibly inspire. Maybe they are right and there is no hope, but you have to have the conversation. And maybe a suggestion to get therapy before he blows his chance. He wouldn't have had the surgery if he did not want the success. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Give them your own suggested dates when you would be able to do it. C Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3410227/ "Band malfunction (insufficient stomach restriction) after AGB leads to weight regain (73–75). In contrast, gastric dilation after VSG does not necessarily abrogate weight loss. Gastric dilatation is not common after VSG, estimated to occur in only one of 14 patients 1 yr after surgery (66), but when it does occur, it is unlikely to limit surgical success (66, 72). Furthermore, gastric tube size does not predict excess weight loss in humans (76)."

It all depends on your doctor, but I really believe you have nothing to worry about. I know I had it all in the week leading up to my liquid pre-op diet.

It all depends on you. If sleeved properly, and you follow the nutritional guidance, barring some weird metabolic flaw you should have every expectation to reach a normal and healthy weight. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I did not have the bypass, but congrats on regaining your footing. I have read many questions on here about regain and the ability to re-lose. You should keep this thread active or create another one with your story and input on how your surgery is working after a reset. You would be a benefit to a lot of people and it would help to hold you accountable. Win-win. Best of luck. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

The loss of hunger so far has been a huge benefit. It may come back. But if you do as you're told and eat your Protein and hold off on drinking for half an hour, you have a magnificent tool to reign in hunger and prevent loss of control eating. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Best thing I can tell you is not to watch the scale and get frustrated the first month. It will come off if you follow the plan.

We were told not to use the gummies by our nutritionists. Either they don't have all needed vitamins or they don't absorb the same. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Happens to a lot of us. It will start to move consistently. Don't be discouraged, though I know it's hard not to be.
