Hey all! I looked around and couldn't find anything for June surgeries. I don't have my exact date yet, but it will be the 1st or 2nd week of June!! Sooo excited!! I had my lap band out on April 18th and they were supposed to do the bypass, but they weren't able to due to scar tissue. I saw my surgeon today and all should be a go for June! Yay!!!! RNY here I come!!!

Tried chicken broth again and it still came up. I think I may be having bouts or productive burping!? It happens when I feel like I have air stuck and it comes up looking foamy laced with saliva.

I'd kill for a Protein shake with some milk but I don't know if it would soothe or make things worse. Other than the spitting up, I'm up and moving around and fine without pain meds. Just feel a little tight in the belly. Felt so good to take a shower and chill out on my own furniture.

I just finished my first whole bottle of water!!! It took all day but I'm ever so excited!!!! I also did 8oz of Protein in there. I know lots of u r drinking more than me but I'm excited for my own progress!!! :-). Surgery was Wed morning.

I made a great new shake tonight! If you like Chocolate Covered Cherries, then you will love this! I took a Chocolate Protein Lean Shake (from GNC), I squeezed in quite a few drops of sugar free cherry koolaid, and added 2 teaspoons of sugar free Cheesecake pudding. I added crushed ice and then put in a blender. Its like eating ice cream! I am so excited!!! I also bought some Dasani Pineapple Coconut drops today, and tomorrow I plan to put them in some crushed ice with a vanilla protein drink.

Thanks

For those who have had surgery... Mine was the 3rd.. I'm worried I'm over-eating on my liquids.. I had about 7oz. Of soup and didn't feel full.. I stopped because of the amount... Anyone else had this concern? I thought you were supposed to feel full quickly? My doctor says up to 8oz is ok while on the liquid diet.

I have had the same thoughts on a few occasions. I feel good though, so I am going to continue what I am doing.

Chewing sugar free Popsicles has helped me.

Oh I feel you, Mel. I've had 5 of them today and may eat about 2 more. That's the only way to get my fluids up

Anyone else's belly still really swollen from surgery? Mine is huge and I even have a drain in. This surgery seemed to be very traumatic on my body compared to every other surgery I've had. I'm worried they won't pull my drain when I go in Thursday. :/

Mine is swollen. Not huge but I can definitely tell. I don't have a drain. It is a very complicated and traumatic surgery. You will swell from it. On a brighter note, I just weighed myself and I've lost all the fluid weight that I gained in the hospital (22lbs!! Yikes!!) but the rest that comes off is all me!!! I'm so happy!! It's like a mini victory and gets me motivated to lose more!!

Mine is swollen still and my drain has not slowed down a bit, still about 60 ml a day.

Mine is still swollen as well. I have lost the weight I gained in the hospital and one extra pound! Yay, Me!!!!

Mine is also. Don't know how much bc I thought my stomach was huge before so it's still huge to me. LOL. I didn't have a drain. But I'm still burping and passing gas a lot more than I usually do. I'm not sure how long it will take to go down.
