Questions

6th day out and wondering if things are normal. Should my steri-strips have fallen off by now? Can I stop using anti bacterial body wash and go back to dove?? Is yogurt considered liquid??

My steri strips took two weeks to come off. I finally peeled them after my doctor's visit, but he gave me permission first. I went back to my regular body wash right after surgery. And, I think yogurt is probably considered a soft solid (depending on your doc's guidelines). I'm lactose intolerant since my sleeve, so yogurt is not a large part of my diet these days. As for pain, yeah, it's pretty normal to still have some pain at only 6 days out. There is a lot of healing going on inside you. Just take it easy and you'll lose the pain soon.

Im 9 days out. I was a little sore still at 6 days, but felt the need to go back to work cause staying home was driving me crazy!!! My doctor has his patients on a full liquid/clear liquid diet after we come home from. Getting 75grams of protein in aday, along with 64 ounces of water seems pretty much impossible!!! Ive bought Unjury protein to add to my crystal light, and chicken broth. I cant have yogurt until two weeks out, which is three days away!! Yes, Im excited about yogurt!!

I had a baby shower today, and although the food smelt so good, i wasnt hungry...oh and the cannolies!!! Ohhh maron!!! Pastries galore! It was weird, cause a part of me missed digging in and chowing down....but thats not me anymore!! I have a new way of life! Good luck to you!

Greek yogurt was on my doctors list of full liquids.

Greek yogurt was on my full liquid menu as well :)
