  5. I was told to wait a minimum of 3months post op. Had one wine cocktail on my birthday (at the 3 month mark) and felt tipsy half way through it.
  6. Good luck! I had a stabbing sensation from time to time while healing those first few weeks and was told it was likely scar tissue forming.

  16. Hi Jenny! I'm 32 and had RnY bypass on 4/24. Would love to be buddies. Feel free to message me and we can connect.
  17. I slept on our couch for the first three weeks. Eventually got back to the bed but it's totally normal to take a while. Hang in there!

  19. I'm down 43lbs so far. Finally had to go out and buy a few new jeans this weekend.
  20. I had surgery on 4/24 as well! 14lbs from Onederland. My birthday is in late July and I can't think of a better present to myself than to see a 1 [emoji4]

  23. I was told by my physician to weight at least 12 months after surgery before getting pregnant.
  24. Thanks!!! Will have to pick up some crystal light! I used to love the premier drinks pre surgery, but post op the lactose hurts my tummy. For my coffee fix I've been having an Iconic protein shake in the cafe flavor or make a protein shake with Chike protein powered mixed with soy or almond milk. Both are easy to order from Amazon.
  25. What are you drinking for your fluids? I struggle with water and am sick of vitamin water zero [emoji20] shakes and soy milk are really the only liquids that I can get down fairly comfortably.
  26. How are you all feeling? I had surgery on 4/24 and am just making it through my first stall (it lasted 2 weeks) I've lost 15lbs since surgery. Liquids are hard for me to get down and water is the worst. Super bummed bc I LOVED cold filtered water 24/7 prior to surgery.
  27. Hang in there! I hit my first stall at week 3 and it lasted about 2 weeks. Scale finally started moving again on Sunday
  28. Progress... 30lbs down from my highest weight when I started the pre-op phase #slowandsteady #makingitthroughmyfirststall
