  1. Congratulations!!! I am at day 5 and feel the same way but going to wait until I see my doctor on Wed to get cleared
  2. I was just in overnight
  3. First two days were horrible! Pain level was at a 10. I'm day 5 now and feel souch better. Every day gets better but there's nothing that could have prepared me for the first few days home
  4. Never figured it out either
  5. How do you feel? Are you sick at all? Don't beat yourself up. Just try to remember why you had the surgery. Also think of the complications that can occur from eating foods your not supposed to. Be strong you got this
  6. My pain the first two days was about a 10. Now I'm about a 4... What about you?
  7. I am on day 4 post op and haven't had one yet. Bought some milk of mag going to try tomorrow
  8. Glad I'm not alone! Have you asked your doctor about it? I have my 1 week f/up on 2/23 and am going to ask about it
  9. I also had the hital hernia repair
  10. I keep going back and forth between feeling 9 months pregnant with a big swollen belly, and just having a baby feeling the same. Am I the only one who feels like this?
  11. Hello, I am 4 days post op and am recovering well. I am having no problem getting liquids down and can drink and entire bottle Water in about 45 minutes. I do have some tightness and indigestion but nothing too severe. So my biggest fear is my sleeve is too big? Maybe the doctor didn't do it right? Am I being nervous and overly paranoid?
  12. I will try that! Thanks for the tip
  13. Okay so I still haven't had a bowel movement. Took a suppository and have tried metamucil and nothing. I lost 10 lbs in my pre op liquid diet but gained it all back with all the IV fluids, etc by the time I left the hospital. I'm down 6 lbs so far. Drinking fine, getting up to walk every hour and do my breathing exercise. I feel a little frustrated about the weight loss but will be patient. Anyone else not had a BM by the time of their 1 week post op? Should I try something else?
  14. Sorry trying to upload a photo from my surgery and can't figure out how to do it?
  15. 10lbs on 7 day liquid diet
  16. I did it and ready to a new life!!!
  17. I cheated with trail mix on days 1 & 2, and 2 bites of baked chicken on Tuesday, then felt so guilty. No other cheats after, don't want them to touch my liver! Lol
  18. Thanks that is what I was worried about. Congratulations on your surgery and hope you are doing well!!! Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app
