I had a rough recovery from VSG (a solid 2 weeks of strong pain) and the revision was much easier (maybe 3 days of mild pain) Honestly the only thing I remember being harder was bathroom issues (constipation/frequent urination) immediately post op. -

Homemade Pancakes. I only had 1 which is 1/6th the calories tracked This is my first time using Greek yogurt in pancakes and I think this is my favorite way to make them. I remember being a child and watching my brother make pancakes from scratch for everyone and now understanding it’s a labor of love (because it’s easier to buy frozen) but getting the “these are amazing” comments are priceless. Now if could only get everyone to enjoy kale salad with me… Doubtful -
Congratulations!

Scar Tissue From Previous Abdominal Surgeries
GreenTealael replied to Midwest Grateful's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
When I was being converted from VSG to RNY my surgeon said I had a lot of scar tissue. It caused the surgery time to be extended but he said he took his time and got it all. It didn’t impact the quality of my WLS just added extra time in the OR. -

Not going to lie. . this scares me a bit
GreenTealael replied to BabySpoons's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Probably the best source to ask is a doctor but also to gather first person perspective, ask someone who has had an obstruction and survived it. -

I take a multivitamin and calcium regularly (not everyday if I am being honest because sometimes I forget) I add everything else periodically because I can usually feel when I need something like more b12/iron/Vit D. They are either small tablets or some version of a chewable. My plan didn’t require that I stay away from bread products and I despise soft breads so I didn’t have an issue tolerating the types I liked. Since your plan does ask for you to avoid it, I would. I still don’t chew gum, eat popcorn or drink carbonated beverages because those were in my original instructions 6 yrs ago. Abstaining for now won’t hurt you. Revisit the conversation with your surgeon at your 6 month follow up. Congrats on the revision -

Thanks! I want to try it now. I’ve seen them around for a while but didn’t want to risk it if the flavor was similar to Oikos (which I used to like but now I don’t) -

Is it thick or thin in consistency. Tangy or smooth in flavor? -
