Does Biotin have a weird taste? Or is it like Water? Or minty like mouth wash? My surgeon highly recommended it

Nope, taste like mint. Taste good! Mint is a natural intestional anti-inflammatory.

My vaporizer was the best thing. I also cook with it, there are many ways to use it without smoking. I was more concerned with the healing of my body and the smoke aspect of it. But I've been using a few different strains since my surgery in jan. and they've helped a lot with any pains I have (I have chronic back pain and other issues that I use cannibas instead of taking pain Meds, it makes me feel better and a lot more functional than certain pain Meds prescribed by my doc.)

I'd say you're fine if you know how to handle it. I talked with my doctor about it first, but he had no real concerns since I explained my method of consumption.

Good luck to ya! =)

Taste minty. It taste good. Plus the mint is a natural intestional/digestive anti-inflamatory.

I remember researching this long before surgery. I'm a little over five weeks out now and I smoked again for the first time last week.

Since then, I've smoked twice more. Honestly, it is something I will probably always do. I am not a big drinker and my body responds good to weed. I get relaxed and it's something that can really make a night out with friends more enjoyable.

As for the munchies, I haven't had any issues. I went to dinner with my friend and had my small plate of food. I ate slow and really relished the taste of it. I actually think I ate slower than I would sober because I was so aware of everything.

Honestly, it's not for everyone. I get that some people will always frown upon it. But I personally think alcohol is far worse for you AND for your sleeve. To each their own!

My very good friend made me some sugar-free pot candies. So good! I am a occasional user, but was very glad to have my "candies". I quit smoking cigarettes for this surgery and I worry if I smoke pot again I will want a cig. I am 4 weeks out and think I will wait a few more weeks, but then again, maybe not! No more cigarettes though!

yes i think alcohol is a billion times worse. it's the only ingestible thing that is poisonous to every single cell in your body. that's crazy, eh?

i dont drink. i never have even sipped alcohol honestly but i will probably always smoke. even my family overseas smoke and they live in a muslim country. i think it's just natural and okay. i also have a prescription for it so it's fine for me :)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
