????OFFICIALLY OPEN FOR BUSINESS????

Does it usually go that quickly?

Hmmm. This *likely* isn't on any post op plan at soft stage/4 weeks post op but just incase check with your NUT/Dietician/Surgeon to see exactly what the professionals say ?

How did we end this month out Team? I Hope everyone has achieved their goals ? Join us in November for a No stress No EXERCISE challenge !!!

Egg salad before and after So lazy... I know ???

I was searching for a regain post I lost track of (that my Oct 2019 challenge was linked in that I promised to link the new Nov 2019 Challenge ?) Get well soon & do what feels right when it feels right... unless its free plastics - do that ASAP ? Don't know why but Hernias seem like the Ex you can never really rid of... ?

You *may* need to add a healthy-ish sliders in to add calories easily (sounds crazy i know) like Panera's Autumn squash soup, fairly high calorie for just a soup but still sort of thin enough to slip through like a liquid.

**********NECROPOSTING ALERT*********** I TOTALLY MISSED THIS WHOLE THREAD Probably because on 7/15 I was in the hospital being revised from VSG to RNY and NOT FOR REGAIN ? I don't know why others post the way they do but, the reason I chose to include that bit of info is because: I didn't want to assume everyone knows my whole story (some people may have just joined that day etc) I wanted to be clear as possible so when some one runs a search for info here on BP they find exactly what they are looking for I wanted to share my specific experience and because the stories/ questions/ support/ techniques/ insurance rules/ *plans/ *preop /*postop may change vastly depending on why you need a revision its not helpful to lump it together. Can you imagine being asked nonstop in DMs if you lost all of your excess weight then having to explain you didnt have any excess weight/ you were at goal already Or never being asked if your stenosis was properly bypassed/GERD resolved/ torsion corrected/anatomy fixed because no one knew that was the reason for the revision. Or telling people that insurance approved it in 48 hrs, but not explaining that it was likely because it was emergent in my case and highly unlikely to get approved that quick or even the first time on a weight regain only case. For me it was about clarity & I hope my input helped ?

Here's a challenge for anyone up to it!

Also we are heading into a new challenge if you want to join @Gman1

Placing this here incase help is still wanted :

While you wait, give us a try :

64 oz is the number that you work your way up to eventually and all fluids you consume count towards your hydration goals (tea,broth, popsicles,even jello) Proper hydration especially water is important for a lot of bodily functions. Use google scholar to pull some journals to support this with evidence and get a doctors note if you need to stating your need to use the restroom more frequently is temporary.

*Running* around

I swear I can't add another thing to my Amazon shopping cart to save for later ?

More sandwiches because I'm food lazy y'all ? Before and After (rest for dinner)

Many thanks!
