Dehydrated
I went to Walmart and actually bought a 64 ounce cup. It’s fantastic. It’s a knock off yeti and was only 20 bucks. That’s how I keep up with my fluids and I also HATE room temperature fluids. It keeps things cold for 3 days.

Not feeling full
I was having that issue until about 15 minutes ago. I prepared some potato soup that my dietician suggested. I put it in my small bowl, and after that last bite I took I sneezed. I’ve seen people say that’s a tell for them so I stopped. I’m not sure if that’s my “you’re ur full sign” but we’ll see.

Not satisfied with Unjury
I don’t care WHAT it is. I can always taste protein and it SUCKS! ? I tried the unjury chicken soup and BLECH! I had such high hopes for it. Everyone loves it. It’s so gross to me.

I’m literally sitting here sad. I’m sad because I can’t eat food. It sounds so dumb to me. But I’m literally MOURNING and I feel ungrateful because of it. I’m 3 days post op and I’m complaining. Is this normal??

Hey everyone!!! I’m sleeved and recovering. Gas pains were bothering me this morning. Once I got up and moved some of it passed and I feel relieved. Awaiting my barium swallow now.

Oh yes!! So I’ve been told. At the risk of being gross the first fart was awesome. The relief... WHEW. My surgeon caught me walking down the hallway and he literally jumped for joy. ?? I love him.

Anyone with PCOS not lose weight after surgery
Hey everyone! I’m a fellow cyster. I just met with my surgeon for my final pre op appointment. He pointed out that I may plateau but to KEEP. WITH. THE. PLAN. We lose, stall, then bottom out and apparently that’s common place. My surgery is scheduled for 12/11.
