I was given one during my hospital stay. I won't use it because even with the larger portion I can take it home for several other meals. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I haven't been for very long. I have read several posts where people are just not happy with their progress. I truly do have the mentality that some is better than none. I expect stalls and possibly a few gains. I try to be realistic. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Why would I not be of sound mind? As with many people on here I wanted to share my joyous moment. I am still happy with my decision to have this surgery even though I have had some complications. I don't live a life of regrets. So I would be just as thankful for losing 20lbs as I would be for 50. I don't have a negative mentality. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Yes I am thankful for any amount lost. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

So I am really in a state of shock. At pre-o.o on July 12th I was 384. On surgery day July 25th I was 369. Today the scale read 332. I was not expecting to lose so fast. I am try happy but I'm shock. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I don't follow the 30 min before but I do wait at least 20 minutes after. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I have medication that I have to take every 8 hours like clockwork. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

So today I am 16 days post op. I am still on a full liquid diet. Per my doctor I have developed an extremely rare complication where everything is sitting in my stomach and not moving as it should. I was given medication bit told not to move on to pureed. It's frustrating. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I agree with you. The good, bad and ugly should be discussed openly. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

If you have the accident and hospitalization policy then it only covers occurrences due to accidents. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

No. The accident policy is for accidents only. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App
