I have trouble all the time .I think I dont drink enough water consistently but when I need a clean out I do 2 tablespoons of epsensalt in water with half a lemon juice and 2 hours later i am going.This always seems to work right at the 2 hour mark.

I was 492 on October 2 2018 and today I just weighed 5 min ago and Im 314 so minus 178 so far.I did the sleeve and no trouble feeling hungry and can eat anything I want but still get full very quick if I eat the proper foods.Protein first the non starchy vegetable and if I have room then fruit .You will have to work at this it is not a majic pill .I can eat bad things and eat more of them like ice cream,chips, ect cause they are easy and soft but when you eat dense protein I get full quick.Just do your resurch and listen to your doctors .

I do scramble or fried but runny yolk when fried.I have always loved eggs so it would really suck not to be able to eat them.

I am 7 weeks post opp and it seems like whenever I eat anything with any consitancy I cough the entire time am eating.I chew till mush.Anyone have same issue and did it go away with time?

I am almost 5 weeks post opp and I have been told be my sugeon and nutritionist no starchy carbs at all for at least 3 months preferably never.I just had smokey bones baby back ribs last night and it was tender(4oz).I at scrambled and fried eggs,meat balls,turkey in gravy,deli turkey,egg salad,baked fish,garlic shrip,scalaps.I think when i try steak it will be a 6 oz rib eye and get 2 meals from it.

I still have a hard time getting my fluid in basically because i forget to sip all the timeand if you go a hour here and there and bace here and dont sip all the time its impossible to catch up so .sip,sip,sip

I miss beer also a nice 9% chimay.Yummy.I told myself I would wait a year and thats my plan.Next new years eve

just had about 4 oz baked grouper.It went down fine but i would have had the old way.FRIED,FRIED!!!!!!

I made 2.5 oz meatballs in crockpot.They are going down fine with a little mozzarella and parmesan.just eating real slow and chew,chew,chew,then chew more.I am almost 3 weeks post sleeve

If you do it monthly it will be cool to see them all side by side in a row in a year

Well I think it will matter how heavy you start and how muck you expect to loose.In my case I started at 492 at 6 feet tall and I have lost 60 lbs so far and I am likeyou I cant tell a difference in pics but I notice other ways like you.I would say what ever youdo take the pics with the same exact clothes on with the same position and background weather it be monthly or a certain amount of pounds.

I was the19th late in the day and still having trouble with fluid intake.I think i am doing about 50 oz a day.I sure hope it gets a little,lot more easy

Well lets be honest most of us on here did not eat healthy before surgery and should have been taking some sort of vitamin

im 5 days post and same thing scar left side above belly button.Mine hurts only when i stand up but this morning it seemed a little better.My instructions say just look fot any redness,drainage,foul smell,fever.But I saw somewhere that the left incision is where they take your stomach out.

I had my sleeve Monday and when i stand up from a seated position i hurt from my left incision
