  1. I agree with everyone else, you look great in both pics... Congrats and keep up the great work
  2. I had the hernia repair too and I'm still a little tender... I'm only 10 days post op and was just cleared to eat puree foods. What types of things are you eating?
  3. My Dr cleared me to move to the puree stage and now I'm scared. I went to the grocery store and was soooo confused and lost. I feel like I bought a whole bunch of stuff that doesn't even match...

  5. What is this ricotta bake I keep hearing about?
  6. I totally understand, I'm right there with you BUT my advice would be to just hold off until it's time. It will fly by quickly
  7. I am 9 days post op and welp, I'm officially over protein drinks, broth, Popsicles and water only. Hopefully at my appointment tomorrow I'll be progressed to the puree stage
  8. I am 9 days post op and I'm still on clear liquids. I go to the Dr tomorrow and hopefully he'll move me to the puree stage. Didn't your surgeon give you a good time line?
  9. It helped me a little bit. I'm 9 days post op and I've only used 1.. Walking helped me the most
  10. You look great! What was your surgery weight and what's your current weight?
  11. I was sleeved on the 20th and had a haital hernia repaired also, whenever I felt the gas coming I walked, walked and walked. I have only had to take 1 gas X strip so far. Whenever u got that pain in my shoulders I would just try and rub it and move my arms.
  12. I honestly think why it kind of freaked out because u was an emotional eater before the surgery and I've had a very emotional 2 days dealing with my husband.. Today was the first day I sat home alone since the surgery so in my mind I felt like I was emotionally "drinking" if that makes any sense..
  13. I'm serious as a heart attack.... The first couple of days a few sips and I could feel everything. Now I don't really feel anything going down and it just seemed like I've consumed alot. I think in my mind I just figured it would always be a few sips and I'm full...
  14. Well I know it's not "physically" broken but it just seemed like that's a lot being 7 days post op... I have an appointment on the 30th, I'll definitely ask about it
  15. Either my sleeve is broken or I'm freaking out. I've been able to drink a whole 11oz protein shake, bowl of broth and now a jello today so far... Not all together but between 8 this morning and now... I'm freaking out because I feel like I've been able to eat soooo much today.. AND it didn't bother me to eat/drink at a normal pace.... OMG IT'S BROKEN [emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji27] [emoji27] [emoji27] [emoji27] [emoji27] [emoji33] [emoji33] [emoji33]
  16. Omg... Why is my stomach itching by my incisions??????????
  17. Praying for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery
  18. You look Great!!!! Congratulations and keep up the good work
