I have a question about our stitches how many people still have your stitches I had my surgery on the 12th but my strips are still on my stitches I don't know when they're supposed to fall off.

I would like to be added to the Facebook group. My name is Jessica Brown. Email is msjayebrown@gmail.com.

On another topic. I am having a hard time getting 60g of Protein in plus liquids. I am never hungry. I just don't want to eat. Tomorrow will be one month for me and I feel like I should be adjusting to eating (soft foods) better by now.

So I have a question about the Facebook page I have not told very many people about the surgery and do not plan on it can people see but I'm a part of the group and know what is 4

I haven't told anyone on my Facebook and do not want to either. Will they know that i'm in the group if I get added? I want to join but I am a little apprehensive because it has RNY with the page

For no one to know the group needs to be secret instead of closed. With a secret group posts will not show up on regular FB and it won't say so and so joined group so and so. I too am apprehensive because I have not told a lot of people.

Seems like a long time. Do you have disolvable stitches? I had surgery on 9/10 and my stitches were removed about 9 days later. Mine were different in that I was stitched inside just under skin with just a tail sticking out on both sides. Not comfortable having the long suture removed five times!! Anyway, they then put another set of steristrips on and I was allowed to remove them 7 days later, which was 9/26.

Hey Jessica, there are a few Jessica browns. Either describe your profile pic or friend me (Maria Criscenti Newman) and then I can add you to the group.

I still don't get in all my protein and fluids. It's a bit overwhelming so I just do my best. I haven't found a Protein Shake that doesn't upset my pouch.

Seems like I do fantastic then I over do it and wind up in massive pain! Has anyone found anything that works better than gas x for gas pain? Also, has anyone purchased the weight loss surgery cookbooks if so what one? Hope your all doing OK and getting your fluids in.

I understand. Feel free to friend me and see what shows up on my timeline. I know the posts we make are private but I don't know if it shows we joined the group or not. I'm Maria Criscenti Newman. I didn't tell anyone beforehand and have only told a few people afterwards so far.

I bought the weight loss for dummies cookbook and I subscribe to some online blogs the have recipes like The World According to Eggface, Bariatric Foodie, etc. I get bored easily with eating the same stuff all the time.

I have a question! How did you get a surgery date for sep if you hadn't finished all your pre recs? I wanted to get my rny done by my bday sep 24 I see the phy on Tuesday then all I have left is to see the nutritionist. When do I make my finale appt with the doc? I need answers please :-)

My pre-op and surgery date were given to me the same day. I guess it's up to the doc's office everyone may be different. As soon as they got my approval from my insurance it was set.
