Ugh mine tasted like orange ass Water. It was the most disgusting thing in the world and I only drank 1/2 of it. Surgeon was ok with that.

Jerz u r too funny. I think it ends up coming out as orange ass Water too!

Baby wipes people! And wipe very softly. Even try Vaseline or buttpaste or desitin. I had diarrhea for two straight weeks and wish I would have done these things before I got terrible hemorrhoids. Which are now gone.

I got the lemon lime. Got it cold and mix half with sprite and half w ginger ale. It was the only way I could get it down.

Not looking forward to occupying the toilet all night long in the hotel. I must not forget the wipes and toilet paper.

You might want to bring Desitin with you too. I ended up using some and it definitely helped ease the raw butt!

Send someone to the pharmacy and see if u can buy a sitz bath its a little hat thing u can buy and it squirts warm Water to help clean u. Also don't use toilet paper get u the flushable wet wipes and gently clean urself then after every bathroom visit put Vaseline with some butt paste there. That's about all I can offer bc my rush became so raw it hurt. I did what I told u to do tho and it helped a lot. I have to use go the GoLite crap that should be renamed go aLOTly bc of my yearly scopes and that junk makes me raw and then causes horrible hemorrhoids. Best of luck to ya!

((Hugs))

      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? 🤷‍♀️
