Still on them........trying to wean, but still taking them....at 42.5 mg now.......it is not fun but thanking God for life.

It’s not their decision. You have to do it for you.

I felt the same way. Cancelled my first surgery date a week from surgery but later had it done. It is a better tool for me because of the limitations on the amount you can eat. It’ s still not easy but I’m glad I had it.

I have been on prenisone since August 28th having had the gastric sleeve surgery on July 12th. I was diagnosed with temporal arteritis prednisone dosge from 60 mg. a day to 55 mg.a day for a month and now reducing weekly. The last two weeks is when my weight gain began and my moon face....eeek.....I am grateful to not be blind or infirmd but I went through this surgery to lose weight. I just needed to vent to like minded peers.

It happened to me but just keep on schedule...the change will come.

Some foods.....eggs, shrimp I couldn’t tolrate until bout 10 weeks post op. I’ll be 4 months post op on the 12th.

i have never vomitted.

I take the Fusion bariatric vitamins with no problems.

I eat them a lot. They have a lot of protein.

Stomach noise is normal now......

Take smaller sips or bites. Remember that the stomach has gone through a shock, the nerves and muscle work slower. I am 3 Months out and get muscle spasms if I swallow too fast or too large an amount.

Are you drinking enough water?

Add benefiber to your drink 3 times a day. I had a horrible problem with constipation in the beginning I am 3 months post. I don’t have a problem anymore.

cookie is a no no.....carb and no advantage.

You can’t eat anything but liquids 4 days out!!!!!
