Fantastic news! Congratulations ❤️

Quick and helpful video for anyone interested in the topic

I would say it’s a combination of fluid retention from the Ringer’s Lactate or Saline if you received an I.V, any meds you were given and the stress from illness itself. I know it’s easier said than done but try to hold off weighing yourself for a while. 10 weeks post op is still fairly early on and you have many more months of progress to look forward to. Good luck ❤️

My food choices have been repetitive and too boring to photograph but this is something new: Kombucha and seltzer water. I dipped my toe back into carbonation and I’m enjoying the change. (Also Naan w/ havarti cheese, hummus and carrots.)

The MBSAQIP Bariatric Surgical Risk/Benefit Calculator (A tool clinicians are using to estimate progress) Hope it helps someone! https://riskcalculator.facs.org/bariatric/?_ga=2.112690692.1282950073.1698781773-393992475.1698781773

Thanks for this. Very helpful because It had a bariatric risk/benefit tool hyperlinked in the article that I use to create a new post.

This is a great color on you! And I love the structure of the top 😍

Get well soon ❤️‍🩹

Gorgeous!!!

I think you may be right 🥺

Welcome to the club! We really should have jackets made (and sweaters, mittens, scarfs etc) How being cold has affected my life: I’m still cold years later. I have to carry extra jackets during outings just in case. I’ve started looking at base layers in stores again. No insulated mug is hot enough for my needs. If I need something from the refrigerated section of the store it feels like a burden. I completely avoid open refrigerated and freezer areas. I will never travel to Svalbard with my partner, I want to sit exactly at the equator. But the bright side is I still have plenty of insulation so it’s not as bad as it could be.

Yes but they are an absolute last resort for me because I’m an avid DIY-er. YouTube is amazing for obscure answers.

I use sugar substitutes in everything I don’t use real sugar anymore but I still use butter and oil 😂

Homemade Basque cheesecake (sugar free/keto) each slice is around 275 cals

Cheese quesadilla. I overestimated the amount of cheese because I didn’t measure it ahead of time. Does anyone else overestimate calories to be safe?

Congratulations!

Cottage cheese bandwagon 😂 (Strained) Cottage cheese w/Strawberries because I’m not brave enough for savory toppings yet.

Congratulations, Very exciting! I remember I was so nervous before surgery that I stayed up the entire night binge watching TV. Whenever you’re settled, let us know how it went.

I understand, hopefully you can find a new doctor who is a better fit for you.

I have two Sith Lords telling me to turn to the dark side.

Now I’m curious
