    Mashed potatoes... But maybe that's a bad idea right now. It's just something I had besides Greek Yogurt and mashed up bananas and stuff like that.

    Some people like Hummus. That's pretty good.

    I don't think those things would happen unless they're not keeping up with their Vitamins, not brushing their teeth and if they're still trying to overeat. Then again maybe there are other things that would cause excessive vomiting.

    The only thing I've gone through was diarrhea and Constipation. Then nausea. I've had no problems with my teeth.

    I was 226 the day of surgery, which was in April. The weight loss started off rapid and stayed that way for 2 months then gradually slowed down. I was 27 on the day of surgery. 28 now. Other than being morbidly obese, I didn't have any other health problems.

    It can. If you meant the extra Water from when you left the hospital. The more hydrated you are, the more things your body will flush out of your system.

    Can you switch your shifts around so that you get more sleep and maybe get in more Water? I was struggling with water intake and the way mine got better is I added Crystal Light to my water. Now I get in 72 ounces or more. I would say add more Protein but the amount you get in seems fine. Did you ask your nutritionist about the amount of protein?

    I'm six months post op, so my weight loss slowed down a lot.

    The worst day was the first few days for me after that it wasn't so bad but I have a high pain tolerance and heal pretty fast. After like day 5 I was fine. I was still tired and didn't have much of an appetite but the pain wasn't even there anymore.

    Everyone's experience with this is different. Who knows, you may not even have that much pain. Some people say they just have a lot of discomfort.

    I haven't but you're not obligated to tell them anything. If they gossip or can't keep secrets and you don't want the whole world knowing... Do you really think they absolutely have to know what they did.

    Word got around about me having my surgery and I never said anything to anyone about it. Be careful who you tell... Some people have a mouth that never stays closed.

    The extension cord for my phone... And comfy loose clothes and a wireless bra. The chapstick. I did bring those things and a heating pad and blanket but the hospital wouldn't let me use it. They had an alternative to that but I didn't have enough strength to activate it. I never used the blanket I bought because I didn't feel like moving to get it, let alone walk around. The only thing I wish I had back then was unlimited data because their WiFi sucked.

    When you get on solids, maybe even puréed you'll get full but from my personal experience, I get full off everything and anything. Even Water. My appetite returned but it's not as bad. I just drink water and it goes away again.

    Basically what LifeChangesLori said. I'm four months post-op Gastric Bypass. I'm not a surgeon or anything but I'd say go for Bypass. I did it because I thought the benefits outweighed the benefits of the sleeve and I needed the extra help with Portion Control. I did it because I only wanted to go through one surgery and not have to risk coming back for a revision. Never had experience with the lapband. This was the first surgery.
