I am a week (7 days) out of surgery and am doing great. I have my first post-op appointment tomorrow morning to see how the surgeon says I am progressing. Again I want to thank each one of you. Reading your post and feeling your inspiration had taken on new meaning and given me the courage to survive WLS. @@60&goin4it you are my hero. Thanks for being YOU!!

That is so good to hear!!! Glad we are helping you as much as everyone's input is helping us all! I can't wait to see our progress a year from now!!!!

Tomorrow is your day @@Bournetodo & @@nervous nana ! We will be praying for good outcomes for you!!!

Good luck!

Had my post op appointment today (surgery was Oct 14) I have a small infection on the incision from my drain hole but not major, he just said to keep it dry and covered. But I've lost 21 pounds since I start my liquid preop diet! So 21 pounds in 2 weeks makes everything worth it. And I also found a protein drink I actually like. Isopure zero carb drink. Comes in fruity flavors.

Great job on the weight loss!! Sounds like you are moving along!!! Glad the drain hole wasn't major, I didn't have one with my surgery.

Thank you!

Does anyone take omega fatty acids in liquid form? I just about threw up when I took it this morning. Any tips?!

Great to hear about the weight loss! And thanks for the protein suggestion. I'm really struggling so I'm going to see if I can order than Isopure zero carb drink online.

So I am home, working on my 1st protein shake. I went to Vitamin shop and picked up samples. The Syntrex Nectar Chocolate truffle is yummy!

I am still in a lot of pain. I am hooked up to an On-Q pain pump. It's hard coming home because my 16 month old is rough and likes to jump all over me. So trying to keep her at bay.

I've heard from a lot of young mother's who are having the same problem with their little ones, she probably missed you while you were in the hospital! Sorry your having trouble with pain, do you think its the gas they pump inside of you? It does take a while to get rid of. The only thing that seemed to help me is the walking & I got some gas x strips which help with the other kind of gas. I think people who have a hernia repair have a little more pain with their surgery sometimes. Sending you hugs & prayers that you will get to feeling better soon!

Thank you. I am passing gas. But you are right about the hernia fix too. forgot about that. I was so out of it yesterday. I am not sure how much is gas vs pain from the inside. If that makes sense. I have been walking and I don't have gas in shoulders or anything.

I got to meet a fellow October patient from this board and that was cool!

Gnc carries them also. I bought 4 yesterday for 17. They are buy 3 get 1 free right now at my gnc. But online is cheaper. (Without including shipping)

I wonder if that's on my approved list. How much protein/calories?
