Just came back from my surgeon follow up. He said it’s just muscles. I need to build up more . Again thank you all for the responses

I am about 9 months post op. I have lost close to 200 lbs. I took a very long break from work and have taken a job with much physical labor. I am beyond sore and care barely walk after about 10 hours of my shift . So bad that I walk like I’m about 100 years old. I didn’t have this pain when I was bigger. It’s been over 2 months at this new job and my body doesn’t seem to be feeling better with this. Any tips? What is happening?

Thank you all for the great responses!!

As funny as it sounds it really sucks that I have lost my butt! It hurts bad! Sitting down for some time hurts. Getting up after sitting for a bit hurts… any tips? Anyone have a cushion that helps them with this? Will it get less painful when I loose more weight up top? Literally my only complaint of this process…

This is the worst still! I can not sit for longer than 20 minutes anywhere .

Thanks for the responses… to some of you… I don’t drink. It was a question just to hear the answer to when I asked it and was shocked that the answer was NEVER and I was just trying to figure out the true why….. Thanks for the supportive and factual answers to my concern. I will loose zero sleep not being able to have a drink…..

I went to my nutritionist today for my 4 month visit. Down 135 lbs since I started my journey in April. (Surgery in June).... I asked the question as my birthday is this weekend and I thought maybe I could go out and have A drink... I am not a drink. I never have been.. But I was told by nutritionist that there's no way at all I should be having any alcohol... EVER... I was kind of shocked to be honest.. Again I dont drink but I didn't think one drink would be so off limits.... Not a big deal to me but shocked at the answer today...

Im 2 months post op and have had no issues with any foods ive tried but I am getting really bored with what im having as it seems to be the same rotation..... I need some good ideas. Ive been living on: Oikos triple Zero Wendys Chili Protein Shakes Rolled lunch meat (Diet Lunch meat haha) Ricotta Bake Soups Refried Beans and cheese Tuna/Chicken Sugar Free Pudding I know this has been posted a million times but I find it easier to post.. Sorry...

Lol Thanks for all the answers... It does suck... I just ordered a cushion hope that helps for my desk chair...

Yes this app is a lifesaver for me … I know timers work but this app makes you check off you took the medication as well. Love it!

Same issues here... Lost weight and now its insane!

Has anyone tried or use daily Oats Overnight? It looks interesting but does have some sugars and carb.. Good with Protein though.

Great! I am asking about a specific company named "Oats Overnight". But thank you for your response.

Protein Booster? Can you give me an example ? Thanks!

They all have sugar

I’m 9 days post op. I feel really weird. Odd. I wish I can explain it . I just feel almost like I’m in a different world. I don’t feel comfortable….. Since not eating food for about 3 weeks I feel like I miss it more than ever. I have never cared about food like that. I just ate the wrong stuff in large quantities. But now I feel I’ll never enjoy eating again. I’m barely getting liquids in for the day as well. I’m just not feeling right….

I used to love premier protein before surgery.... Not I hate it. too sweet for me.... I have the Atkins Chai or Atkins Coffee. Not the most amount of protein but it tastes good to me .

Anyone heard of It's Skinny Pasta or rice? I had some tonight and it was great! Less than 5 calories a serving!!! No Carbs or Sugar! Im almost 2 months post op and I thought this would be okay.. Anyone have it before? How is it for us?

never tried okra or squash before.... Just looking for some new ideas as the plan I have been given seemed very basic... Thanks for the ideas!

YES! Tomato soup is my go to right now as well. Which kind are you having? I actually enjoy the Bariatric Pal brand.

I had this same issue... I would drink my drinks to where the label started and I couldn't have more. I never went to hospital for IV but I did almost pass out at doctors office... I found it easier for me to have a fountain drink from WAWA with ice cold Powerade ZERO.... I can drink a 32 oz cup from there before the ice melts.

Yesterday was 29 days since my surgery and the first time I did something more than just going to the store. I went to a baseball game with my kids... WOW I was not ready for that. I felt terrible the entire time. Tired, sore, almost felt like I was going to pass out at times. I defiantly over did it. But I didn't want to deprive my kids of going to do something... Should I feel so bad a month after surgery? Im nervous now to do anything else like this... Any good ideas of what I could have eaten there to maybe get my energy up ? Everything I seen was fried and I couldn't bring anything into the stadium. I hope It gets better because I can't feel this way every time I do something....

I lost 34 lbs in the first 2 weeks after surgery now I haven't lost anything week 2-4.... My day consists of about 500-600 calories.

I know pills are essential after surgery.. But I am taking 13 a day... Is that normal? Is everyone doing this? Is there something different and less pills ?
