Well I just got home from 10/1 surgery, and I'm craving FOOD! But a simple sip of anything gets me full! I started my B12 tabs today and its relish and has taken my sweet cravings away! I'm living on three things as of right now which are , chicken noodle broth, 1oz every 2 hrs. And 1oz of juice , Water , or tea every hour or so! Any eating suggestions please reply!!! Good luck to us all!

Sipping broth, sorbet, Water, Jello, one ounce every 15 minutes. Tolerating very well, could probably take in more.no shakes for another week. Walking up and down the halls, just a little sore. The tummy grumbling is the only thing really hurting...a lot

Just Do It!!!

I just wanted to chime in that the roxicet was making me really nautious and spitting up. I determined it's either too thick or I'm drinking it too fast. Either way, I watered it down to about 1:1 and sipped it over 15 mins. Finally got it down with no problems and my pain thanked me ;-)

I also had my surgery yesterday around 1230. Last night was kinda rough but mostly due to gas pain. I am feeling much better today. Just had my first clear liquid meal. They said I am doing so well I can go home this afternoon. ????

I had my surgery on 10/3 so I guess that makes me 2 days lost op. today is the worst. I'm having a hard time getting fluids in. I made me some Unjury broth that usually tastes pretty good, but it's making me nauseous this morning. I'm sipping on Powerade Zero. The liquid loratab made me throw up last night. I think I took it too fast plus it tasted horrible. I've been up and walked a little bit..to the mailbox and back. Every time I swallow I feel a bubbly feeling/pain in my chest. I guess it's still gas. I hope day 3 is better. I'm going to rest and then walk some more. I would love some tips on getting all the Fluid in.

Well I'm sorry :( I hope it comes off soon. Maybe the binder might help with being able to get up and around better.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
