Same here. They tell me to eat "half a cup" 4 to 5x a day and I'll be good. Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

Take milk of mag. You'll clear right out Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm 2 months out and at home I only do have a cup per meal. Maybe a tad more. If I'm working then I just eat something like a couple tacos, one and a half chicken strips or a grilled chicken sandwich with no bun. Then a few potato wedges or fries Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

I was told it's very important because it helps your kidneys get rid of the waste created when losing weight and I would end up on dialysis if I didnt start drinking more than 32 oz a day Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

My ins was billed $68k but I'm sure self pay would be way cheaper. I've had 2 friends go to mexico for about $6500 total and neither of them regret it. Do your research and you'll find something that fits your budget Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

I was told my stomach is only 4 oz in size. I can see why 8 is too much Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

Most things didn't bother me but doing too much of something can cause discomfort. Even moving around too much. Such as showering or trying on a few clothes while getting dressed. Nothing 10 or 15 min of rest didn't take care of Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

My surgery was same day as yours. I lost 20 lbs pre op and 5 lb then first week. I had zero issues and zero pain from the surgery. I couldn't tolerate jello afterwards but was up and walking 4 hours after surgery. I asked my surgeon if he actually did the surgery or if he just cut me a few times and added a few stitches.

I didnt have any problems on the preop diet but I stopped poopin the day before surgery and didnt poop until a week later while on all liquids. I figured no solids=no poop Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

How do you balance you good and bad? Bad meal a day, twice a week, once a week? Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

My surgery is tomorrow. Was told no more than half a cup Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

I took a loan from my retirement account and pay myself back with interest. There are also low cost options in Mexico for around $5k Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app
