I’m in Boston!!! I’ve been looking for friends to work through this with! My surgery was 3/6

Looking for an accountability buddy to make sure we go to the gym and eat healthy! I’m in Boston!

I know this question has probably been asked and answered before, but I’m two days post op and not passing gas. I am burping every time I drink something, but nothing is coming out the other way!! Any tricks?

Did anyone not pass gas 2 days post op? I have been burping but haven’t been able to pass gas

Heading to the OR!!! Surgery day is finally here!!!!! [emoji16]

I’m in Boston, MA. I didn’t have a pre-op diet. My surgeon says that the diets are used to shrink the liver, but in our program we were required to lose a certain amount of weight in the 4-6 months prior to surgery (which also shrinks the liver). They said they prefer to not have a pre-op diet because it’s too much pressure on patients to have to lose a specific amount of weight in the two weeks before surgery, and surgery is stressful enough. I definitely appreciate it.

Hi! Does anyone know of a discount code for the Tespo?

Yeah, I knew about having to crush daily vitamins. In this post, I was mostly curious about the pre- and post-workout supplements. Thanks, though!

I’ve used C4 before and liked it. That’s kind of what I was thinking - just mixing the pre-workout with less water and drinking the bcaa slowly while working out (which is what I currently do anyway). I just wanted to see if this was the general thought in the post-op community. Thanks!!!!

Hi all, I’m going to have surgery in a few days (yay!) and I’m realizing now that the pre-workout and aminos I use require a lot of liquid to be consumed, since it’s a powder you mix into 16 oz of water. Has anyone altered the supplements they use post-surgery or do you just consume them slower?

I don’t use Facebook. Could I send along my email so someone could keep me in the loop if you’re doing meet ups?

I’m going through BMC. You?

Oh my god that’s amazing!! You’re doing great!

BMC! So fortunately, no pre-op diet for me! I’m set for March 6!

Hi, I’m set to be sleeved in two weeks and would love to meet up with anyone in the Boston area looking for accountability/support partners!
