    extremely dry mouth

    yes i no longer experience this and my clinic checked me out im not dehydrated it just went away after awhile! i don't believe it's from dehydration because it happened as soon as i left the hospital for a week or more, and of course while in hospital i was on IV so no way dehydrated Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  2. surgery was 9/22 every night since the day of surgery i've been waking up many times a night with such dry mouth it actually hurts there isn't a drop of Water in there. i take a drink every time i wake up, but unsure what is causing this. it was happening even when i was hooked up to an IV so i don't think i could be dehydrated Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Weight Gain

    don't worry it's not real fat or weight gain! to gain 1 pound you would have to eat 3,500 cals more than you need a day! which at five weeks out i've doubt you done. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Coffee Question

    i wouldn't risk chewing gum, if you swallowed it by mistake you would need surgery to get it out. i know some are super careful but honestly you don't know what could happen and it's not worth the risk. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    iih

    anyone here have iih?? ive been in remission for about 6-7 months now just had surgery september 22 so i'm about 5-6 weeks out, and my whooshing sound in my ear has just came back. i'm praying the headaches/eye issues stay away. but just wanted to know if weight loss cured you or made you worse? my neurosurgeon swore if i lost 20 pounds i would be cured well i'm down 37 and it's starting again Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    iih

    yeah but idiopathic means they don't know what causes it so they just assume weight. ive met people who are below a normal bmi with it. was just curious if anyone is farther out and it worked for them ive heard mixed stories. so i'm very curious. i just don't want to have to get shunt surgery which is next if this fails.

  10. i'm 6 weeks out, i've been in a stall for 3 weeks where i've actually gained two pounds. it is very depressing! i know stalls happen but doesn't make it any easier. how long was your first stall? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Coffee Question

    we had to give up coffee for at least 3 months after surgery after that we are allowed coffee. of course we are always allowed decaf! just caffeine is hard on the new stomach Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    2 days until mushy foods

    i've always wondered how you would know if you had a leak? i tried to search it but didn't find anything. do leaks happen to some people? or only if you go off plan? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Noodles

    i didn't say pasta, i just said carbs in general. everyone on these forums always say no carbs bread etc. see you had them. the point is to learn how to eat healthy, i didn't say go to olive garden get pasta and breadsticks now did i? i said one day you will eat carbs.... i know one day i'll eat carbs again it's making the correct choices as i stated. changing your relationship with food. people on these forums i tell ya Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Noodles

    I would also.. I'm 5 years and guess what.. I eat cake on my birthday and my son's birthday. I gave up carbs in the beginning but now I don't scarf down a bag of chips or eat half a cake to myself. Sent from my HTCD100LVWPP using the BariatricPal App see! you've changed your relationship with food and that's the most important part otherwise you would fail, i wish more would realize this instead of saying "no never have carbs" it's going to come up in life!

    Dried fruit?

    i don't think fruit with seeds is allowed, my plan doesn't talk about dried fruit but it does say i'm allowed melons. just be careful because it is high in sugars, natural sugar yes but still sugar Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
