  1. I did some detoxing prior to surgery. Juicing and tea Angelijah 2007
  2. I'm sure it will be coming soon! Angelijah 2007
  3. I started VSG journey in July 2016 (the shortest prep I have ever heard of). I weighed at my highest ever at 272lbs. The journey started due to complications with my lapband (I had lapband done on March 2012). I started to get frequent aspiration pneumonia. Fast forward to the VSG journey. My surgeon and I discussed revision from band to sleeve. Had endoscopy done August 11, 2016 and was approved by insurance for surgery date September 28, 2016. I'm now day 3 post-op and this app has helped with so many questions I had. One fear was not being able to poop!!! Yes I said POOP! Well it's day 3 and I had a BM. Gas pain was getting relieved slowly but I think this is a victory with so little liquid intake I've been having. Angelijah 2007
  4. I did a cream of chicken today and it went down smoothly as well. It seems like Water is the only challenge I have drinking. Going to try my popsicles Angelijah 2007
  5. I totally agree that I have no desire for food. I've been sipping Water, took my Vitamins & I have Jello & chicken broth on the menu today Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  6. Hello all, I decided to finally join this app, as it has been helpful pre-op and now post-op VSG surgery. I had surgery Wednesday September 28th and I'm on day 3 today. I've experienced drinking too fast and I also feel like sipping is just as hard for just Water. Did anyone else have a hard time intaking liquids after surgery?
