  10. I had mine done sept 26th 2016 I am down 30lbs and was 217. Im only 5ft tall. And 44 yrs old. I have never felt better. I haven't been sick and have not had any issues at all. Nothing but weight loss. Yeah sometimes I miss eating bad but i get past that fast just like when I stopped smoking. It was by far the best decision I've made. Good luck!

  17. Took me 5 days then milk of mag 5 days again. After that it isn't hard anymore. It gets hard from surgery and pain meds. It constipates you. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App

  21. After a few days you'll be able to pick it up a bit. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  22. Serious question! Why do you care about losing weight but dont care about your heart possibly exploding from doing rails??? Im sorry It doesn't make sense. I used to do it yrs ago so I get why you love it but if you don't love yourself enough to stop then why the surgery? Not being mean. Its a serious question!

  23. I was told by my nut that caffeine causes ulcers. And with a new stomach with staples in it could cause severe ulcers and or heartburn. I have been a huge coffee drinker since my teens. Im 42 now and gave it up for the very first time. I had the most severe headache ever for an entire day. After that I would make a chocolate Protein shake then warm it like hot cocoa. It helped.

  24. I never got used to it. However, I kept telling myself that there were kids in the world starving. It changed my thought process. And I was never hungry as long as I had my shake every 3 hrs. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  25. I had mine on the 26th. For the first couple days I didn't lose. However, once I went to the bathroom (and it wasn't that much) that night I showered and was down 3 lbs. Its strange and maybe the swelling inside could still be holding weight. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
