I hardly used anything I took... only used Towel, wet wipes, toothbrush paste, extra clothes, hair pin, brush, phone charger and some noise cancellation beats. The rest it was provided. Even the underwear ( I prefer the one they have very comfortable) I took some either way.

That is some bs... hope everything works on your favor . ??

Amazing ... I’m going for a quick get away to my country ... hopefully that happens to me too! Congrats

Thank God ! (Phew)

Hey neighbor ! Thank you so much for your words! And what hospital you doing your surgery in? I had mine at Bellevue. Already wishing you the best! Time sure flies!

Stuck...aren’t you in liquid diet? [emoji848] and after liquid they gave us 3-4 weeks of purée .. so nothing gets stuck or hurts your new stomach .. .. what are you eating that you feel stuck? Tips my first tip is your Protein intake and Water .. if you feel like it’s too heavy add water. I couldn’t swallow my pills .. so I kept drinking Centrum liquid Multivitamin. Biotin ( mandatory) my hair is falling but not as bad as I have heard. I did cut it tho. And pictures take picture .. for your before.. cuz I feel like I havent loose anything .. but when I see my old pics after surgery from month month .. I know that there is some changes. And lots of water. ( a friend of mine got so dehydrated that she lost conscious and hurt herself, she had VSG) drink even when you don’t even want to About drinking water .. I just learned to not gulp anymore lol .. when I feel like a burp is about to happen I stop.. rest and keep drinking.

Let’s us know how it goes!!! Best of luck!

Ah yes I had 7 too.. and keeping up with my pain meds and walking to get the air out we’re my best friend. I won’t lie and tell you that it went away quick cuz to me it took me awhile with muscle pain... but it does get easier and it does goes away.. you learn what works and how to eat and drink . Btw... protein gives really bad breath I used to brush after every drink.

Yay! Bestest of luck and fast healing!

I didn’t have one.

[emoji38][emoji8] thank you! Comments like yours give us beginners more motivation . Thanks a lot ! Wishing the best! Thank you! And no it isn’t because at first you feel kinda painful to eat or drink, but once you learn where your limit is at .. no biggie... now I really had a hard time drinking water cuz I love water, so I gulp on it ( bad mistake) started burping and I felt like I was drowning .. now I now how to “drink” water ( took me like 2 months or more lol ) . Any question you need to ask.. I’m always welcome to give my share.

Ok.. since I had my surgery Nov 28 I can’t tolerate warm or room temperature water .. ok no problem I start burping like crazy and not lil burps. Ok .. so I only drink freezing cold water .. BUT THIS IS THE WEIRD THING... when I shower in warm/kinda leaning to more hot than cold.. I start burping till I’m done showering. Isn’t this crazy? I understand drinking it .. but showering with it too? Has anyone gone through this .. or I’m just special? ???‍♀️

Congratulation!!! You doing amazing.

Thank you! I wanna be one of those motivations that motivated me to do it too.

thank you! Love! [emoji4] thanks.. I see we are almost loosing the same amount, congrats to you too! Thanks! I will! [emoji847]

This place is called SHEIN this is where I got my swimsuits from. And they have so many more .. check it out.. they have longer dresses.

My mother did ... very annoying after the third time .. so I spoke to her .. let her know that I already DID try that. Even after surgery and Me in pain she will tell me that it wasn’t gonna work and bla bla bla ... well now she is seeing the changes. You gotta be patience in this life.

I bought a one piece swim suit I never wore one where I didn’t put shorts with it.. this time I letting them hang lol. With that in mind We bought a trip to Punta cana resort next month. [emoji1417]

thank you! thank you Fluffy! Any tips for the arms would be great! [emoji38] thank you! [emoji4]

I wish !!! You doing great!

I wonder the same thing too.. but then I remember I can’t compare my self to others .. this is my own body.. and I am seeing changes .. so I just embrace it and keep going.

Congrats and fast healing!
