Do you know what time your surgery is? I think mine is at 9:30. I'll send you a message as soon as I can after. We are both going to do great! Don't forget to take gas-x with you. I hear it really helps!

Mine is at 7:30 so I have to be at the hospital at 6 am. I will definitely have to get some gas X. Will we be able to take it because my doc said that we should only be taking chewable or can you get it in chewable for?

My doctor has it on the list of stuff to prepare with. He's been doing bariatric surgery for 30 years and the first doctor in my state to do laparoscopic surgery. The kind I got were tiny capsules, I guess you could chew it if it were needed. I actually posted about this in another post asking if it helps. Hopefully I will get some replies and I'll let you know :)

I got gas-x thin strips. They "melt" on your tongue sort of like those listerine breath strips.

FinAlly feeling well enough to log in. Still struggling to get fluids and Protein in. Otherwise I've felt mostly "discomfort", but no real pain. Was surprised to see that the incisions weren't as scary as some I've seen on here

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
