Don't use mouth wash or breath strips while on antibiotics. I got thrush & I think that is why I got it.

Try coconut Water during your 1st week of Clear Liquids (post-op) -- good electrolytes and tastes refreshing (much better than Gatorade).

Those sound like excellent tips. Thanks!

Any tips for how to beat this sugar withdrawal headache?

She is out of surgery. Dr. Overby said all went well and surgery was actually shorter than he expected. Hope to see her soon. Will update when I do.

Sorry. It should be gone by the 4th day (or perhaps during the 4th day). I had a constant headache for 3 days including a Migraine the 1st night. Felt better the 4th day & have only had 1 headache since about 3 days after surgery.

I had my Sleeve done this Monday Aug 12th. I was in a little pain after and better the next day. Today I am back home and feeling great. I have been sipping Water and Evolve Protein Shakes. So excited to begin this journey.

      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
