Post-Op Wet Dreams...

I made something the other night that really hit the spot: watermelon, ice and half a lime squeezed into a blender and buzzed. It was sooo refreshing and not carbonated. I made sure there were no seeds in the watermelon chunks first. You might like it :)

That sounds great! I fear that I would be tempted to add a squeeze of lime and a few shots of tequila for my favorite watermelon margarita. Hmmm....

i was told no carbonation. but who knows? one of the million times i was trying to wean my H off of his coke addiction, we got bottles of flavored Syrup, and made italian sodas. they do come sugar free, though i dont do artifical sweeteners. you can order syrups at www.monin.com . it didnt break my H's addiction, but i loved it and far less sugar than soda pop.

when i was in the hospital, i dreamed of food. not since then though.

I gave up carbonation and caffeine cold turkey

Coke is bad. It's like drinking battery acid. More a nightmare than a dream. I tried some about 4 months out, and ran around the room yelling OW OW OW sh*# sh*# sh*#! Don't want to go near it ever again.

I drink coke and other soda sometimes. Im 3 1/2 months out. It's actually soothing to me and helps me burp. I also found a low calorie way of having some fizz. I tried flavored seltzer Water and crystal light. :)

Carbination stretches your stomack due to the gas. Not a good idea. Flat coke zero maybe. Just saying

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
