    crickett73 replied to crickett73's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    That is what I was talking about.thank you. All reviews I have read seemed good. I am 9 days post op and struggle with getting my protein in. I am drinking 2 shakes a day plus sf popsicles, jello and soup but I am only getting in about 45 g of protein. Do you have another suggestion??

    What is the powder tasteless protein you can mix in your foods. I know you can get it at GNC but for the life of me I can't remember.

    crickett73 replied to kad_82's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I bought pjs and never even changed into them. I did wear them when I came home.

  5. Pain

    crickett73 replied to crickett73's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I am drinking room temp water. The discomfort is unbelievable

  6. Pain

    crickett73 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I am having horrible pain in my chest area. Worst indigestion ever. Hurts to take a deep breathe. I am 4 days post op. I can only take small sips of water and don't want to even drink that because of the amount of discomfort I am in. I can keep it down. I am burping a little which hurts and passing gas but it brings no relief

  7. Help

    crickett73 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Taking Tylenol with Codiene for pain and when I take it I bought throw up. I started mixing it with some water with crystal light but doesn't really help much. Anyone have suggestions? Day 2 post op

    crickett73 replied to tlh4life's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I had my last class this month. I am just waiting on seeing the nurse practitioner and then getting approved. My only problem is that when I went to see the pulmonary dr, I found out I have sleep apnea and having been waiting for over a month for my cpap machine Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
