    Bariatric Pal Store

    It should be, but just stick to a pack a day or every other day.
  3. Could be contact dermatitis and you may need a hydrocortisone cream. Chat to your doctor. I typically end up with contact dermatitis if I wear a band-aid/plaster too long. Ended up with a really bad case around all my incision sites.

    Bad Snoring good reason for surgery ?

    Your BMI is a little under 39. Have you had an sleep apnea test? for the snoring? Do you have any other health issues as a result of being overweight? Regardless, I would think losing approx 100lb could only be beneficial for your current and long term health.

    Please don’t hate.

    Have you seen a bariatric dietician? If not, perhaps it may be timely to do so. If I have understood correctly, you are eating 1/2cup of food at a time, many times a day??? You don't say what you are actually consuming...are you eating calorie dense foods? Nuts/seeds, cheese, full fat yoghurts/milk, avocado, salmon and other oily fish, eggs? Have you actually calorie counted your daily intake over a week or so? What exercise are you doing on a daily basis?
  6. Perhaps you get a bit more feedback if you were able to find a local/Indian bariatric facebook page or group?

    4 months post op update

    That weight loss is pretty good for someone with your start wegiht, you are not going to lose massive amount when starting lower. So nothing only about your weight loss at all.

    Doing Better Than I Thought

    Well done having this resolved, what a shame there wasn't the appropriate follow up by your medical tea, but hopefully now there is action for you
  11. I think I was cleared for walking within a month and more intense exercise about 6 weeks out. Walking should be fine for now, give any thing more intense a few weeks longer.

    Post op hunger

    Are you on any stomach acid reducing meds? You may be feeling hungry but a couple of other things may also cause you to feel like you are hungry....too much stomach acid, thirst. Do you best to keep up fluids and if you are not on any medication to reduce stomach acid, have a chat with your surgeon or doctor.
