  1. Thank you! I actually haven't taken any aspirin or any blood thinners of any kind since the surgery. I do see my doctor today for a post op visit, so I will be sure to mention it, thank you!
  2. I would love to be friends/buddy as we travel through this journey together!
  3. I picked up plastic childrens forks, knives and spoons just for the occasion. I got an entire set, like six place settings for 2 dollars at my local ikea. Great place to look for non brand name portion control containers. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
  4. I was sleeved on 11/28 and before that diagnosed with Lyme disease and pcos. I have never has a huge problem with bruises before. My Iron count is showing fine. It's not where my surgery incisions are, but in other places, like under my arms, under my chin, and upper thighs and bottoms of hands. I look like I have been in a fight. I haven't....they are the size of grapefruits. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

  9. I haven't had a period at all prior to surgery. Ever. I am kinda looking forward to it. I am nervous about having extended ones. I am only post op a week and I am feeling moody and angry at the drop of a hat, it's weird. I am having trouble holding in my feelings! Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

  12. Did they give you something for the gas pain? They basically, pump you up with a bunch of gas so that they can see the field better. Gasx helps tremendously.. the strips and the chewables. Talk to your doctor. I am post op 11/28 and still feel minor pain from the gas, but it's getting better. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
  13. I was just recently sleeved on 11/28/2016. I knew that food addiction was going to be a problem for me, so I needed to have a therapist, in addition to my food/sleeve support groups. It's not just important, it's necessary. Because, this is the the biggest change I'll ever make, and food isn't the devil, but it can become it. :)That got away from me, ummm Best advise, Therapist!!
  14. I live in Florida, and cold is still too cold. It's difficult to escape. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

Mine starts this Monday☺ Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App Mine also starts this Monday. It's two Protein shakes in the morning and lunch, and then 4 oz protein 4 oz of veggies at dinner.
