Doing great! Finished first week of soft diet. Taking Bariatric Advantage Chewable Advanced Multi EA vitamins. Yuck! Any ideas for better tasting multivitamins. I can resume swallow vitamins in a few weeks.

Amazing! 4.5 miles! Unbelievable! You are a Rock Star! Keep up the great work!

Back to work after one week? Wow! That’s amazing! I can’t navigate the grocery store alone yet! Good for you! I’m a nurse, so it’s out of work for 6 weeks for me! No lifting/moving those patients my size?

Hi! I had RNY on December 18th. Also had huge hiatal hernia repair. Was in hospital 3 nights. Had enormous amount of pain in left shoulder. Walking has helped tremendously! So happy to be in this group. My doctor seems rather progressive with the diet. Puréed starting week 2. Couldn’t believe I was able to eat so soon but everything is great! Down 17 lbs already. Good luck to you and God’s speed!

I’m 60. My surgery was December 18th. Down 18 lbs. My surgeon has RNY pt’s on clear liquids while in hospital the advances to full liquids when home. Week 2 puréed so that’s where I am. Tolerating well. Week 3 and 4 will be soft then advance to regular just a few foods at a time. God bless and best wishes everyone! We can do this!
