  1. I was sleeved on the 11th and try to minimize my drinking while eating or around eating but I can't do it. I am not meeting my Protein or Water requirements either so if my body wants a drink I do it. Probably not the best way to go about it but it seems to still be working for me.

  2. My Dr cleared me from liquid to puree and puree to mashed/soft about 4 days early each time. Just call your Dr and ask. The worst thing they say is no. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  3. Question: does anyone take Protein pills? Do you like them? Do they work? How much of a difference did you feel? What brand? Etc etc Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  4. I had and still have this pain but I had a herina repaired with surgery so I thought it was just because of that. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

  6. I took off 6 day and I have an office job. I wish I would have taken the two weeks. I ended up working half days and hating it. You just end up being so tired. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  7. I did. It ended up being like 16,500. My insurance wouldn't cover it. They did cover my labs, meds and ekgs. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  8. Sadly I think you can only be supportive as much as you can but she is an adult and going to do whatever she wants to. Hopefully when you are handling yours she will pick up some better habits. Good luck. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  9. I had stage one 2 days of Clear Liquids. Stage 2 one week of liquids and stage 3 is one week puree and stage 4 is two weeks of soft foods. My Dr allowed me to move to stage 3 early. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  10. My Dr said Miralax and okay fiber gummies. My Dr is not a fan of milk of magnesia. Two fiber gummies at night and all is well. And I am 9 days post op. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

  14. I would love to find some local buddies that are going through the same thing as me. My surgery was January 11th. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  15. I have this problem. Like we should have IHOP for dinner because pancakes sound good but I wasn't hungry. I had to stop and ask myself am I thinking and wanting this food out of habit or because I am hungry. 100% of the time when I wanted stuff like that it was because of habit versus when I was like I should have Protein because I haven't had any in so many hours. You will figure it out, you just have to stop and ask yourself some questions. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  16. My sister is going through them. They are making her do all these appointments that seem to set it up to be that long. She called 3 times a week and got on cancelation list and ended up getting everything she needed done in a month. Just be proactive and stay on top of them if you want to speed up the process.

  17. I use an ice pack on my incisions once or twice a day and it has really helped with my pain. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
  18. I did meat and cheese only basically. I had to stay under 40 carbs a day and be careful because veggies have carbs if you have a budget. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
