I have a rash all over my chest and shoulder area. Can it be the meds ? I called my Dr. and believe it or not..their only suggestion was to go get some benadryl cream. Ugh, me tiene mal...I am being forced to deal with it...benadryl isn't helping.

So after four weeks what were you able to eat...( food examples ) ? I am going to be 2 weeks post op tomorrow. I can't wait to enjoy food ..im starting to only drink liquids again. Idk but that might happen ti me too. When I see someone eating...for some reason im like " Thank god it isn't me eating that" lol

Lol I feel the same way. Around four weeks I was eating tuna, chicken, cheese. I kept it light and still do. I usually go to McDonalds and get me a grilled chicken wrap and just eat the chicken inside. I can't even enjoy good, it's like when I got to solids the restriction it's so much more.

Do u own a slow cooker? U can take a couple of boneless chicken thigs and take all the fat off them, season them and throw them in the slow cooker till they look like tuna. U might even want to throw in it some carrots, broccoli and coliflower. It wont look beautiful but it will be delish and healthy.make sure u put in half cup of Water in it.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
