I have read all kind of stuff about this soap. Are you telling me as a woman this is the best smelling soap you have ever smelled on a man?

I woke up after surgery and my mouth was stuck together it was so dry. Thankfully I had read this and took dry mouth spray. I have not really been having problems at night at this time.

You are a Buzzkill!!!!!!

Good info! Thanks for sharing!

How are you doing? Any complications since surgery? I have been able to get my liquids in easy. I have really just been drinking my protein. I am really over the soup and broth. I got light headed Sunday and checked BP and it was 61/42. Got back to normal in a couple of hours.

Gator, I am not talking about eating out now. I travel a few days each month and need some go to meals and places in a few weeks. Thanks

Thank you! Looks great and good info!

I am planning for the future....not for now. I travel a few days month and will need some options when that time comes. Thanks

You will do great! Keep us in the loop!

I hate to even tell this but for folks thinking about backing out, I hate the pre op diet,Is it worth it? Will it work ...etc. I need to tell my story of the last 7 days. Surgery day(2/23) to me was like a blur. The worst part of the day and night was the gas and thirst.TAKE DRY MOUTH SPRAY TO THE HOSPITAL, THIS WAS A GAMECHANGER FOR ME!! I was able to burp the gas out almost 100% before I was discharged. I have not had ny trouble getting my liquids down and really just not had any pain to speak of. I didn't have a BM until a short while ago and that was painful. Like passing a couple of big rocks OUCH!! I took stool softenors, maybe I should have taken more. I went to the doctor yesterday to get some meds refilled. The last time I was there was 1/25/21, 5 weeks ago. I had lost 26 pounds! The nurse said are you losing weight? I said I don't know...am I? She gets all excited and then I told her I had WLS surgery last week.I will say I am fatigued, tired and not much energy. We have a nice gym nere at the condos and I want to go do some 10 # dumbells but too lazy right now. I will get some in today sometime. Do not be afraid to have this surgery. I also had a lap band removed the same day which complicated the surgery but still no pain and now no hunger. I honestly believe I can hit my goal weight in 6 months. 81 pounds in 6 months...if it comes faster or longer I am ok with that too. This has been a great ride so far and I have accepted the change in lifestyle. I have hated to have my picture made for years, you know the tricks, get in the back or between people so that only your head shows.. In a few months that story will change! Do not hesitate to have this surgery. It will change your life for the better!

PREPERATION H?? NOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Dang ...That is pretty tasty pre op diet. Better than most.

Thanks I will start in the morning!!

I need to get into a routine and take some stool softeners or something. I can't deal with that very often. Happy Pooping!

I've had a couple of episodes of low BP. Has anyone else experienced this?

Yeah I had little episode and got a 61/42 reading. It gradually increased over couple of hours. Really weird

Well you did! I will be glad to take Miralax. I was taking stool softeners! OH NO!!!!!!

How much have you lost since surgery?

Physically I have no hunger which is just crazy and awesome! I do think about things at night like nuts and popcorn just because of past habits. I guess that is head hunger. I am wondering how long did this last for you individually? I am loving it!

How much weight have you lost since your surgery?

Thanks...Yeah 60 G of protein and 64 oz of liquid. That's all for the next few weeks.

She is not overweight and attractive. People have told me before Man, What is she doing with you? I would answer...Well I haven't always looked like this. She even held back sex as punishment...to me I guess not her LOL. But looking at my post surgery pics who would want to be intimate with that big tub of goo? You really don't quite understand how fat you are pre surgery.Honestly I had a hard time looking at myself in the mirror, did any of you experience this? I saw on a report from my doctor the words Morbidly Obese. That was the day I started thinking about this procedure and found Gastric Sleeve. I had a lap band about 15 years ago that was also taken out. If you have one I hope it works for you but it was jus not for me. Anyways I am hoping for a new life for my last years on this earth...better years! You dont see alot of old real fat guys walking around! What is your story?

My wife had a hysterectomy 25 years ago and well...That changed everything. Hopefully losing some weight will inspire here ocassionally
