A little help please! I'm 27 days post-op. Today I got in about 800 calories/106 grams of Protein. Anyone think that's too many calories? I'm asking because I have yet to see the scale move this week. Side note: I'm doing horribly with Water just 30 ounces of Water today but I'm guessing all Fluid counts.

Oh tightness a bit in my chest and in my back 😩

I did the same thing the other morning I had a boiled egg and all of sudden I started sweating and a lot of saliva in my mouth. I started gagging over and over again nothing really came up but I felt so bad for most of the day. I had to take a pill for nausea. I said that I am so done with eggs I have tried scrabbled and boiled.

New to the page but my surgery was same date as yours 👏🏽👏🏽

Ellen531 did you do plain oatmeal or flavored?

Thanks ladies! I went to the store today to get stuff to make Ricotta bake and I will try some string cheese and oatmeal.

CurvyMom I have had Greek yogurt I can tolerate that it’s the meat I am scared to have.

Ellens531 I have eaten applesauce I just can’t purée meat. That seems so disgusting to me. How did you eat the chicken salad and tuna did you purée?

Ladies I will be officially 3 weeks post op tomorrow. I am so over broth my surgeon told me to try an egg and I can do scrabbles but not boiled mashed up. I am scared to introduce new stuff I know I have too. Anyone that is at this stage what have you tried?

May be a reaction to the anesthesia they used or hormones starting to release from your fat as you go into ketosis. Probably looks worse than it is!

Ladies, I have a question I am 6 days out and I have lost 8lbs so far. And it is getting better by the day but I have recently broken out in a rash all over my body. Have any of you experience this after surgery? I called my surgeon’s office today because I am not itching just wanted to see if this is normal.

Congrats and welcome to the losers bench!

Ladies, anyone that has the surgery recently when does the soreness and burning at the incisions not hurt socbad? I am doing good with my fluids. But stomach hurts when blow my nose or cough.

2 days post OP. Happy to be in med last night and able to sleep more than a couple of hours before someone is coming in your room for something. My stomach is one big bruise. I'm easily getting in my fluids. Each day gets better

My surgery is on 1/22. I am so nervous but looking forward. It is the fear of complications or even dying.

So, I guess you are my people. I'm having bypass on the 21st after spending the last year thinking I'd get VSG. Ah, curveballs. The last-minute change has made me a little unsettled, and I'm having so many second thoughts despite knowing that I really do need this surgery for multiple reasons now.

I saw a few of you scheduled for 1/21, too, but I don't know if any of you are getting RNY that day. Doesn't matter, you're all my surgery twins anyway.

I am doing good a little pain in the large incision but over all not as bad as I expected to be. I eating ice chips and tired from the medication.

I am six days gastric sleeve post-op and still in the hospital. I ended up being one of the rare cases where I had internal bleeding and almost died about 12 hours after surgery. They had to go back in, suction out all the blood, and re-cauterize everything. I also needed three blood transfusions. I’m finally off the IV fluids as of today, and if my hemoglobin levels are steady tomorrow morning, then I finally get to go home. Any other horror stories, or am I the only unlucky one?
