Hi all. I am 3 weeks post op. I have had some difficulties but I think I am getting better. Is it safe to have lemon at this time. I feel when I feel sick or just need something else. I suck on a lemon and it helps. Just wanted to make sure it's ok. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi sleevers. Are any of you taking one specific tablet that contains all you need? There are too many different pills to take and I just want to find one that contains all. Please let me know. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi I am 18 days post op and I am so sick of Water, zero cal drinks, ice, everything. I know I am not getting my Fluid intake and I know I am dehydrated. I am not getting my Protein shakes in either. I need help with alternative drinks and smoothies. I have made a few different fruit smoothies and I can't hold them down. The taste is just not right and the milk is making me sick. I have chocolate, vanilla, and unflavored Protein powder. Please help. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have constantly been walking. I walk in my house for 25-30 minutes minimum twice a day. With additional waking outside the house. Today I went out and about and walking for about two hours, yesterday house plus 1 hour, day before that house plus 4 hours out, and before that 3 hours and when I was in the hospital I was the only one walking out of the 5 surgeries. I was up every 2 hours 4-5 laps each time. I've been doing the walking and I'm not diabetic and I had ultra sound done so idk what's wrong. it's freaking me out because I never had these problems before hand. Sorry I am just starting to feel well from the gas pains and all and then this happens. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I went to the er and they did a ultra sound and said no signs of clots. And I called my doctors office again today and they said if it gets worse go to er but if not I have an appointment on weds to be seen. I will see how I feel in a few hours.

Did anyone start bruising very easily after surgery. I feel like every morning I wake up I have a new bruise on my leg. Both legs are very tender. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How long after surgery did it take for you to make a bowel movement? I'm 5days out and nothing. No signs or symptoms of even having to go. Before surgery I only went about 3 times a week, which is horrible I know. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
