I was swollen for the first 2 to 3 weeks then I slowly noticed it going away. You are only 5 days out from your surgery give it time, but if you do not feel right call your Dr. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am 2 months post op and had no pain or issues from day one. I also thought something was wrong, but my surgeon said just follow my orders and you will do fine. I do follow the plan exactly and that has helped me be totally honest on my food logs my Dr requires us to do. I was able to walk every hour the first two weeks increasing it every few days and that helped me feel good. You are doing fine Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi, The place I was thinking of is called Jack Jacks in Babylon 223 Deer Park Avenue Babylon, NY 631-526-9983 It is a corner shop a few stores from cold stone ice cream parlor. It is new but coffee is good. See everyone at 4 on Saturday

I had my surgery 8/18/16 and like everyone else here constipation is the main issue. I am taking a probiotic every day but still a bit if an issue. Once, I can get more fiber in hoping that will help. I am on the soft food stage for over a month and not having any issues with food. My starting weight was 263 I am no down 43 pounds. Yes, I have had stalls also but I keep going on my Drs orders and all is working out. I exercise a 1 to 2 miles 5 days a week. I was wondering how soon can you fly again?
