A liver bx was a routine part of my sleeve.

I received some great advice from the psychologist during my band eval years ago (now a sleever) -
Being a "B" student is what you should strive for in eating after WLS. If you think you have to be perfect, the pressure may be too much. But if you aim for a "B", good most of the time, but certainly not all of the time, you may be happier in the long run.
My goal is to build a healthy lifestyle at a healthy weight. Which does include some Snacks, birthday cake and wine.

I put Laughing Cow in my scrambled eggs to get a nice creamy texture. Very satisfying. Or if I'm indulgent, blue cheese in my scrambled eggs.

I had the same stuck problem for 6 days right after surgery. Like a golf ball. Was instructed to try glycerin suppository. I had to have my husband assist - I was not happy. I also used leftover flexeril and gabapentine to relax muscles down there and cut down on pain. I had similar before and urogynecologist game me muscle relaxant injections right where I needed them. Good luck - I truly feel your pain.

Only tell the people you want to know. Be prepared with the answer you are comfortable sharing when they ask you how you’re losing all that weight.

You are inspiring me! My BMI just fell below 50 on my last visit. 28 pounds down since preop diet started with 8/22 surgery. We can do this!

Congrats on being overweight!

I too wanted to avoid the dumping and malabsorption. My husband and I entertain a lot. He’s a gourmet home chef and we host dinner parties during which we paid wines to courses.

I also don’t have aspirations of being skinny. I want to be healthy and live a life not impeded by my weight.

I have no goal weight. I have a goal lifestyle.

My first little NSV 12 days out from sleeve - I left my clothes in the dryer until fully dry, not worrying about shrinkage.

Most days. First thing in the morning after taking care of business. But if I forget no biggie.

I’m 10 days out and using guac to flavor my Beans.

Well I have enough clothes in various sizes to closet shop for 80 pounds. But I did buy my favorite work slacks in several sizes so I can always have pants that fit me.
