💜 Congratulations 💜

Neck, forearms, calves & feet lol im going to capitalize on viewable parts 😂😂😂😂😂

Its the only exercise im doing today... 😂

I am also surprised you were able to find a surgeon who will place one without strongly arguing against it. My surgeon only revises from lapband to other surgeries.

Perhaps the wrong post was quoted ? but good information for anyone who may need it !

I also had a drain. I had to baby it. I emptied, measured cleaned and logged its contents. It was work. But I believe I'm healthier for it. I had low energy for quite some time after surgery but i rolled with it instead of fighting against it. I didn't need stress adding complications to the pot so i tried to remain super chill about everything. It was major surgery after all and i was honesty happy to be alive. My incisions took a while to heal and were very itchy so i cleaned *around* the incisions with alcohol before putting the hydrocortisone cream *near* the incisions. It helped alot. One week down many more to go !

Ghee or butter I believe helps when cooking legumes to aid in the prevention of gas. Oldwives tale... And an antigas med or something like beeno can help too. Have you asked the your NUT about gassy foods and what you can take?

It is temporary🎇 it was for me, I was in very substantial pain for 2 solid weeks post op. Then the pain disappeared like nothing. I felt completely normal again like i never had surgery at 2-3 months post op. That being said never hesitate to bug your team if you feel worse instead of better with each passing day. Advocate for what you need. Take it easy, heal, be kind and patient with yourself & you will do great 👑

Motivation? Or just eye candy... Why not both 😂

B-Side question: What logging app does everyone use for food?

Thank you! 💜💜💜💜 Hand & food model 😂😂😂😂 I could do that!!! 😂😂😂😂

Thanks 💜 At least salad makes you hungry (hopefully) for salad ! 😂😂😂😂😂

I like justifiable whining... 😂😂😂😂

I agree. The thinner i get the more self conscious i get. I think its because things fall apart at a certain weight... Oh Miami or MX or DR here i come lol

Can't wait to see it!!! This year im making protein waffles for my bday and EVERYONE has to eat them ahahahahahaha

Thank you for the 💗💗💗💗

March 7th: I'm flexible & tenacious. I roll with the punches. I keep moving. I dont intend to let many things stop me. Some may slow me down or force me to rest and regroup but my eyes are always on goal... Whatever rhat maybe

Prayers up for further safe recovery! You could write the handbook on how to navigate the complications with style, fortitude and grace 👑👑👑👑👑👑

If you’d be into a long distance buddy or maybe I could start a weekly hike report thread where we can post pics/trail reports/goals?? Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Blair Witch styled 😂😂😂😂😂

Im down for whenever its not snowing Lawdt 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞

No and yes... Lol i was still rocking one pieces with my thick $€×y self lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 i did not care... The pool was going to get the body i was going to give ittttttttt 😂😂😂😂😂😂 But now Have mercy. Insecure.

Thank you sooooooo much for starting this! We need sage advice from VETS. When i joined the site and really started becoming active there was a spreading sense of regain fear that i almost fell victim to as well. Im glad i checked in with my team about the realistic stats instead of just rolling with the doomsday momentum. Perspective can change your world.

I wasn't working out at your stage either... Honestly no energy or desire for it. Heal up, do what you can, take your vitamins, drink water, focus mostly on your diet and wait for the energy to return. It will come back as long as you take care of yourself.

Absolutely! I couldn't finish yogurt yesterday lol what a pity 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Im also super mindful not to eat over 30mins like my initial rules state because the stomach does empty and you can just keep refilling it lol then surgery is pointless if you consume excess cals The futher out the more diet manipulation/tightening I begin to employ Congrats everyone on your skinny little stomachs lol
