Oh my god that’s from the last time I was on here I’m trying to learn how to update all my information I was re-sleeved on Tuesday, February 12 th The day of surgery I was 178 I have lost 12 pounds since Tuesday I’m still on liquids I’m weak and crabby as heck. Yes I do have pictures I will post them

I always seem to have trouble finding the place to post weight. Click on your profile, then My Surgery, then find Progress on the left hand side of the page.

hope that helps!

I am 4 weeks post-op. Bought an electric throw for the living room. I have a heater going under my desk at work all day. And a heated mattress pad on my bed. Sometimes I get on the treadmill and walk just to warm up. LOL
I can't wait for summer!!!

I have an old scar at my belly button. This was NOT a site from my sleeve. In the past few days it started hurting, kind of a pinching feeling when bending. I'm just about 4 weeks post-op. Could something lacking in my diet have caused this scar to start hurting? It has never bothered me before. I have a doctor's appointment coming up on Tuesday and I'll be asking about it, but wanted to hear from you all.

I found mine at Sams for the cheapest price. Also heard Walmart carries it which makes sense since they are the same company. You can also find it on Amazon but it is a little pricy. Worth the price though even if you just buy a 12 pack to get you through the first few days.

i love Protein2O. I order it online through Walmart and have it delivered. My local Walmart doesn't carry it. I did find out that my local Rite Aid carries it. Go to their website and enter your zip-code to find the places where you can purchase it locally. My favorites are Mixed berry & Wild Cherry, but they are all good.

2 weeks. I have a desk job. Just finished my 1st week back and did great.

 
1 scoop =22g Protein.< br>No sweetener in this one. Add your own if you like. I buy it from Amazon.< /p>

I had them with no issues

I had the exact same fear!! The sleeve is completely different. You won't fail in the short term. Looking term, weight gain is possible, as in all WLS. Hostile
Hopefully, we will have mastered it by the time we are at goal.

My husband just told me that I must be losing weight because my breath smells bad. I've never been so pleased to be told that I have bad breath. Guess you could say that i have halitosis from ketosis.

I am 11 days post-op. I believe that all of the gas from surgery is now gone. I still seem to burp a lot. And it's loud. Is this normal? Do i have to learn to live with this?

How do you delete a post?

How long after surgery before you could drive?

Sent from my SM-G930V using BariatricPal mobile app

As long as you aren't on the prescription pain meds you can drive.

My 6 week blood work showed a drastic drop in total cholesterol. I have never ever in 26 years had an unmedicated normal cholesterol level. At 6 weeks It was 162, prior to surgery it was over 300 and on 20mg lipitor it was 199.

Focus on the health reasons, not the vain ones.

How long did it take after surgery to have a change in your cholesterol numbers? Did it make a big difference for you?

This question was posted by someone who just joined and this has been their only post. I suggest we wait for pictures or more info. Just doesn't add up.

I'm 4 days post-op and was just about to ask the same question.
