Has anyone had hummus?! I'm buying some tomorrow.

I haven't had it post-op but ya. Its good in my opinion but not to eat straight. Its something you put on crackers or a pita. Its basically spiced pureed chickpeas.

I've had all sorts of foods no problems. Still haven't felt full either. I had pork loin tonight, pureed. Guess I'm lucky?

I think all of you ladies should've went to my doctor. 2 day liquid before surgery. 9 days of liquid after and when I went for my checkup he told me I could eat solids that day. Ive had no problems with any food. Even off my diabetes meds already! Only thing I hated was after surgery gained 12 lbs from all the iv fluids.

When people ask you how much weight you have lost so far do you guys go from your highest weight, or from the day you came home from the hospital?

I take Dulcolax. The pills are VERY small so you don't have to worry about them getting stuck.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
