diddo @Creekimp13 on the sipping and walking! Can't wait to hear your update @angyplus5

Thats awesome! congrats and I wish you all the best in your journey

hmmm, I never once had soreness "in" my stomach. Just at the incision sites but I had the sleeve so bypass could be different.

OMG..learn something new everyday LMAO

no problem, just remember whatever you pack...has to be unpacked after surgery That might help keep it simple

I packed an entire suitcase with all my "just in case" items and used absolutely nothing. I slept the first day/night and didn't want to do much when I was awake. The next day I didn't bother even changing my gown because I was scared to move or stretch too much (although I wasn't in pain lol). By the time I got up felt like a person that afternoon, they were in the process of discharging me so I put back on the clothes I wore there. I may have used my phone twice in between naps but didn't even need my charger because I wasn't using it enough to lose juice. Everything i could have possibly wanted or needed was provided.

Ahhhhhh THAT Alex! It's really cool that he is still active here. I just read the profile page.

I'm new and don't know who Alex is but if he can get the perv off, then YES!

LMAO! EXACTLY... I just got the exact same message. Very creepy

30-40g but I'm not sure if that's the right amount. I'm a little confused by it myself. I'm losing about 2-3 lbs a week now which seems to be good to me.

Thats awesome, I think it took me about 2 weeks.

Oh my gosh yes! I don't like anything I used to anymore. Very few foods I find enjoyable these days and I hope it gets back to normal.

I have BCBS TX and and I had the normal copays for all visits. My surgery was actually scheduled long before I was approved. After my last medical clearance appt on 11-30, it was submitted to the insurance company and took 7 days to get the approval notification. Luckily I still had another 6 days to go before my surgery date - talk about cutting it close!

Awesome! Can't wait to join you

I've been wondering the same question. I'm two months out and have no idea how much I SHOULD be eating. I eat 500-600 calories a day, maybe 3-4 oz at a time.

I have the same issue, my surgery is tomorrow and I've started my cycle! I was told, no tampons..pads only Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app
