  1. Still early out for me (day 5 Post) — but trying to think ahead a bit. I really want to avoid the saggy skin if I can so wondering what folks did for exercise and how long did you wait? Obv I’ll wait til after two week appt and ask Dr . I want to try boxing...
  2. I started to feel good on day 3 too. On day 5 now and feeling great. Get in those protein shakes!!
  3. Mine too. I’m on day 6 post op .
  4. Good luck to you! You’ll do great!
  5. It was actually not bad at all. Def sore (like you got punched or worked out hard) and it felt like really bad gas pains at the top incision for me. Day 5 and I’m having much less gas pain and overall ok, Crazy but the scale says down 7 lbs?! Not hungry at all- hard to drink everything you need to
  6. Seeming to learn to balance. This afternoon was better.
  7. Ok! Today is first day I feel somewhat comfortable. Just trying to learn how to sip lol. Drinking too fast and causes chest pain type pain Overall awesome! You?
  8. December 20 here!
  9. Lol I just reloooked at my paperwork- counts maybe doctors differ ?
  10. Interested! Mine was 12/20
  11. Thanks that makes sense. 11 oz shakes
  12. So two 30 G protein premade shakes pretty much covers both and the rest is a bonus . Getting like 24 oz water plus the popsicle and meds water
  13. Hi all! Question- do the protein shakes count as water intake? I’m supposed to get 60 protein and 64 water right? I’m 5 days post op
  14. Waiting here too . 12/20 op Using the mirolax but nada. Stopped taking pain meds friday night as they don’t help it lol
  15. 5 days post op (12/20) and doing ok! No cravings but having to realize what I think is a sip isn’t . Gas pains from that lesson. What are folks experiences with the scale? Out of curiosity I weighed myself this morning and I’m down 4 lbs but of course that’s likely a misread due to liquid diet?? Does the weight go back up when you switch food stages?
  16. Congrats. I had mine 12/20 and so far so good. The worst part was the gas pains near the top . Trying to learn to sip slowly as yesterday I think I drank too fast and the gas pain in that area came back again. Came home Friday- thank god- isn’t it the worst when they wake you up every hour?!
