Anyone dating after surgery
I separated feburary of 2020 and started a new relationship a month after. Everything has been great besides my beau's ex girlfriend has been harassing and stalking me . I already got the police involved. We just dont know what anybody is capable of nowadays. Like that creepy saying , if I cant have him no one can kind of thing. I just hope and pray that everything goes well . Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Food Changes and Returning to Tolerable
I had the same issues but you MUST sip on a electrolyte sugar free drink 24/7 throughout the ENTIRE day! It eventually gets better. I had to get IV fluids once just to 'catch myself up' Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Im scared of gaining weight through this crisis
Dont worry , I'm just now breaking a month long plateau. What I'm doing that helps is walking outside around the neighborhood twice a day to get into shape . And I check my weight twice a day as well but I'm not crazy over the scale. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Constant Dull Pain ?
I hope so too. It's annoying when you have a spot on your back right in the middle of it where you cant message it but barely find relief of any kind
