  2. I went to the Dr. Because where they took out my stomach left side of my belly button . I had a large fatty pocket removed. And gall bladder w/ gastric sleeve. Total 7 incisions. The main one was sunken in really bad. It was only one that did close completely. when Staples removed at 14 days. I have lost more weight and it's evening out so it opened up a bit as skin has been shifting. I though I was having pain coughing, sneezing bearing down, when I bend down was all because I had injured it somehow, had an infection or had a hernia. Went to surgeon and he examined me and said that the main incision where stomach was pulled out from had internal sutures that's why it hurt. And when I did those things when it hurt was just slight stretching of muscles that were stitched together. Unless lift something heavy or do heavy pulling I can develop a hernia. That it was totally normal. To keep excersiceg and it is healing well. So I was relieved.
  3. My dietician listed only 2 tbsp of avocado occasionally for pre-op diet
