  1. Congratulations!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
  2. At my surgeon's office, they sell Celebrate Vitamin Patches. It's awesome! I couldn't stomach the regular vitamin, but with these I have zero side effects. With these patches, you just put a new one on every day. I cannot recommend them more. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
  3. I used them 2-3 times a day for several days after surgery. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
  4. That's the same for me. I had my surgery on Oct. 4th. I lost 11 pounds the first week and nothing this week! Oh well, eventually it will all catch up. Good luck! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
  5. I have a question for those of you more than a couple months post op. My hubby and I are going on a little vacation to New Orleans in November. I will be 5 1/2 weeks out. Can you all tell me what my diet will be around then? I know everyone is different and I plan on making smart meal choices, but I was just wondering if I will be able to eat regular food, not mashed or pureed? Thanks!

  8. I was sleeved on Oct. 4. My dietician said that fluids were more important the first week than Protein, but I haven't even had half a bottle of adkins lift since surgery. Is that a problem? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

  10. My surgery was on October 4th. Just curious if I can have sugar free gum or mints at this stage. Just something to get the yucky taste out of my mouth. Thanks! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
  11. I had my sleeve on October 4th. I think the pain in the abdomen is common. I also feel bloated, but I believe it's part of the healing process. I've noticedthat deep breathing is a little painful so I'm trying to do some breathing exercises to help. I think what we're experiencing is normal...good luck!

  12. Hi there. I was also sleeved on the 4th. The gas pains get better every day. Rest, rest and more rest. I actually feel better every time I wake up from a nap. Also, Gas-x strips have been my go to for the gas pains. Good luck! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App
