Has anyone had to move post surgery and switch doctors? I'm asking for a friend. She is 3 moo this post op and her husband is getting relocated for his job. She is basically being threatened that if she moves then she won't get her follow up care because other programs won't help her if she didn't get surgery with them. That doesn't seem right.

I got 86g today. Unflavored protein has been a savior. I drink 1 premier protein a day with 2 scoops of unflavored protein which makes that 50g. I also have 3 3oz "meals" a day and add a scoop of unflavored protein to those too. I have mostly been doing soups (cream of chicken yum) and some broth for my meals.

Thankfully I am sleeping through the night which keeps me pretty energized during the day. How is your water and Protein? I was surprised it wasn't as hard to reach my intake goals as I thought. Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I am doing great! Day 1 was tough but u have been great since. Spent one night in the hospital and haven't had to take pain meds since coming home. I have had no problem with water or protein. Getting a little stir crazy around the house but I don't want to push anything the first week. How are you? Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

MAY 1ST!!! woohoo so excited! Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm set myself another goal weight to hit before surgery. I was so focused on getting approved that my weight hasn't moved in 2 weeks. Gives me something to work on. I also know that there are still things I need to prepare for but I need to organize my thoughts and put a list together. My mind is all over the place thinking about surgery.

That's really depends on the person and how long they want to stay out for work and how physically demanding their job is. Some people went back as early as a couple of days. Most people take 2-3 weeks. And others take 4-6weeks. I plan to take 5 weeks. Not necessarily because I think I need it but that way I can spend a good amount of time focusing on me.

Right? Every hour I'm like "am I closer to surgery yet" lol Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Yeah but the coordinator was on vacation and it was the Friday before Christmas (at the end of the day) so I kinda feel like they rushed through the whole thing with me so they could get off early. We will just have to see. I usually get there by 5-530 at the latest so you may still be there when I show up. Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

What time is your appointment? They told me it was 3 hours long but I was only there for a little over an hour Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you. I was able to get an appointment for next week. I'm happy I will be able to get one session in before surgery and will continue after surgery. I know what my issues are that cause me to eat, I just don't know how to fix them. I have always just ignored the issues and ate them away. Hoping therapy will help.

My stomach. I was diagnosed with fatty liver disease last year. Causes me to have pains in my midsection and I'm always nauseous. I told my coworkers those symptoms were because of a cyst in my midsection that needed to be surgically removed. A lot of people say "it's none of their business" but like when people ask I don't feel comfortable being like "I'm not telling you" I would rather lie.
