    I’ve been doing pretty good since discharge. My hospital stay was less than desirable but once I got home everything is great. I still have slight soreness around my incisions but nothing I can’t handle. I get in 60g of Protein a day and about 23-40oz of Water. I start purées on Saturday, excited about that for some reason, lol. The scale is barely moving but my clothes are fitting looser so I’m not worried about the scale

    Well, this is where I'm at. Counting down the days to the pre-op diet and starting to make my shopping list of Protein Drinks. Yippee (sarcasm included).

    I am 9 days out and starting to go from nervous to excited! I am doing my best to stick to the pre-op diet. I’d like to shed these last six pounds before surgery and hopefully the pre-op diet will help with that!

    I finally formally requested leave from work, as my diet is pretty set in stone, provided that nothing comes up during pre-op testing, which is on Wednesday.

    I was sleeved on June 14th. Had my 3 week post up check up this afternoon. I am down 25 pounds since surgery. I feel great. Dr. Says no pool for another week. Told me to keep doing what im doing. Blood test came back great. Still having trouble getting all my Water in but doing around 32-40 oz not including my 2 protien shakes. So glad I am heading in the right direction with my health.

    Aww you guys are the best! I feel better after getting IV fluids for 4 hours today, they also have me scheduled to come back tomorrow and Saturday for more fluids in the IV. I will say, that I can tolerate WARM liquids better than room temperature. That was a suggestion from my program coordinator. I find that it doesn’t stick in my esophagus as bad. Also I’m hoping by the time I’m finished with my IV fluids that my stomach swelling will be down enough for me to drink. I also haven’t been able to do the medications as well so I can’t wait to be able to get into those some more. I’m just thankful that my incisions haven’t been that bad! Thanks guys!! 🌟🌟🌟 here’s to positive thinking!

    My ice pack and gas x have been a God send. Hopefully this stomach binder works out too.

    Congrats and welcome to the post op side! The walking and gas x (if they will give it to you) will definitely help! The soreness definitely gets better over time. I still feel it 5 days post op but not as intensely! Here’s to a speedy recovery!!!

    I had gastric bypass surgery on June 28th and actually GAINED 10lbs post op. So I’ve been working on getting rid of the gas weight. Lost 5 of the 10lbs gained from surgery. I’ve been doing okay with liquids. Finally got 60g of Protein in today so I was proud of that. This is definitely a process but I think I’m doing great with it so far. Can’t wait to see myself getting healthier and fitter

    So my stomach binder came in today and oh my God it was just what I needed! Everything feels held together nicely and I don’t have the granny walk when I wear it. Best $35 I’ve ever spent
