Glad it went well!

No blood thinners pre or post op so that is not it. I guess it could be the less padding lol

could be caffeine or sugar withdrawals, blood pressure, dehydration. lots of things. If it continues check in with your doc.

Anybody else find they seem to bruise really easily now since the surgery? I notice all kinds of weird bruises, no idea where they came from......lol All bloodwork has come back normal.

skinny girl margaritas are soo good. BUT I have not had any yet either. I am 5 mos post op

yeah no bread, rice or pasta is part of my plan too. my doc says I can try to add them back in but I'm just avoiding them altogether, as pasta is my weakness

WOW so sorry to hear this. could be some of the meds as well.

pretty much use stevia for any sweetener I need.

ok your title LITERALLY made me LOL and I am at work!

I love the Neutrogena oil too

I WISH I had an aversion! lol so far nothing is off limits in small portion of course.

no HBP meds for me either!

ask your doc. but I was ok at three weeks. just no swallowing

lotion lotion lotion. I use a firming lotion, nivea is the one I like best. it has also helped with the loose skin issues some too

Exactly. the first thing I do is get a to go box lol I divide my food into NOW and LATER right away. We do sometimes split an entrée if we know the portions are really big and neither of us will get much out of it but I look at it this way.....I have lunch/dinner for the next 2-3 meals.

This is pretty typical weightloss. perhaps talk to your surgeon and nutritionist about what your expectations are

Lifting will most likely be your only restriction for a bit. get in the cardio and yoga/pilates/stretching while you wait. I also have been jumping rope to break up my routine

I have been trying to sprint on the treadmill....it is crazy hard. lol

I was an avid runner in my twenties. Now that I'm in my 50s and have a few old war wounds you can definitely call what I do slow jogging LOL

Yes. I try to do some sprinting on the treadmill too

I guess I need to have one too. nobody around except my special needs 11 yr old son and the dogs to see if I'm still snorfin all night lol

I am sorry you are feeling blue. a let down after surgery, once you get to the real work is pretty typical. it is a hard road we have chosen. but the benefits will far outweigh the sruggles

hmm that seems ood to me. I did my 6 month sup diet with my PCP.

OUCH had this issue last week after a pot luck at work. did not over eat but the variety I guess did not sit well. immediate nausea. and the first time I have vomited since surgery. I do Chinese but no rice for me. just my cashew chicken and egg rolls, usually get about 4 meals off of one serving lol

what shapewear have you found that is light and not like a wetsuit? lol I need something too but I live in FLORIDA
