arringtonc49 got a reaction from BCutler in Sleeved on 3-6-17 have not had a bowel movement since. Have tried miralax for 2 days and today milk of magnesia. Still no luck. Should I be worried about this or does anyone have any ideas how I can get things moving.
I had a BM after I was given jello
And popsicle and broth.< br>But drinking strictly liquid does not do anything.

arringtonc49 reacted to pattycaketoo in Lentil soup with tomato
Tomatoes are acidic and may be hard on the healing stomach. Plus if it has the peeling on and had seeds in it, those are hard to digest as well.

You can't have nail polish but

I felt the same way.i had surgery
3/10/17. It was the best choice
I made. Yes it is a change in my life but worth it. My health is my priority.
I was going to cancel the day before but when I joined this support group it really helped me. So many positive responses.
I thank God for the wonderful people who responded. I was really Scared but
I am glad I stepped out on faith.
My husband has also supported me which really meant a lot.
So keep doing everything you suppose to do and you will be Fine!

I learned the hard way. I told family and co-workers about surgery thinking they would be
Supporting me BUT! That did not happened. I received negative results. I wished I had just kept my mouth shut.
My friends were positive about it.

arringtonc49 got a reaction from gjb2017 in Getting Scared
I am having gastric sleeve surgery
Tomorrow. I am getting Scared.
I was going to change my mind but
When I think about my health issues;
The surgery would help.
I think the thought of change is what
I am afraid of. I don't want to fail.
Has anyone else felt this way?

arringtonc49 got a reaction from ebarclay in Cheating on the liquid diet
I believe the liquid diet is to help keep you hydrated before surgery and no starch 3 weeks before surgery to shrink your liver.
