What are you eating 3wk postop?
caddygirl replied to SleevedinSI's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 3 weeks post sleeve also! Is any one besides me not having a bowel movement everyday? I know we are not eating fiber or carbs so I wonder if it's normal not to have a BM every day? -
Good luck! I went through the same thing two weeks before surgery and two weeks after surgery liquids! I'm so happy I can eat purée meats and beans and cheese sticks I didn't know how good it all tasted! Hang in there you can do it! My surgery was Feb 20 th[emoji3]

What Was Your Final "straw That Broke The Camels Back"
caddygirl replied to bigjoe102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Good luck Tony you will feel and look amazing ! I'm 2 weeks post surgery and my clothes are getting bigger by the day I can't wait until I reach my goal weight of 130 lbs[emoji3] -
I had mine on the 20th of Feb I only had to take one gas x I found walking and sipping on water really helps . I would walk to my mail box about 4 times a day until I finely made to the end of my street which is about 4 houses down walking helps. I haven't had to take any pain meds sense I've been home. I don't like the liquids either since being on liquids since Feb 6 and still on liquids but I have found that sugar free popsicles and yogurt on a stick makes it so much better [emoji3]

4day Post-op...feel like drinking too much....
caddygirl replied to rusnj's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi everyone I had me sleeve 4 days ago at Ochsner in Louisiana. I'm only drinking small sips of ice water and eating popsicles. My Doctor told me to sip sip and walk walk, I did just make a Isopure protein drink but I only had 4 teaspoons. My not in pain but still tender. My Doctor told me not to get on the scales but to concentrate on healing. I did start back on my chewable vitamins this morning but I didn't swallow the little pieces. Everyday I'm getting stronger but I love my ice water and ice! I'm having weard dreams also it's probably from the pain medication I had in the hospital! My surgery was 2/20/17 good luck to all of you[emoji3] -
