Being good and not going on scales till at least monday as was told usually you gain because of gas pumped into stomach will let u know when I do???? feeling better today had some protein milk and a pro biotic walked around house a bit but not stressing myself over it too much.

Did anyone else have a hernia repair at the same time? Having s good day today!

I did as well during my surgery on November 20th.

I have lost 10lbs as of today, this includes the pre-op diet (2 weeks before surgery). I started at 196, then on surgery day 188. Today I'm at 185. I am looking forward to exercising after I heal. I think that will make all the difference.

I'm having mine on December 9th.

Good. Let's keep each other updated!!!
I got sleeved on 12/1! Close enough?

Close enough for me!!

How is everyone who had their surgery doing??

I'm having cravings throughout, every add I see on tv especially as it's so close to Xmas but it's like my body knows I'm not able now so I'm just storing up records of what I want to eat in the future. My mom was cooking roast chicken today, I was worried the smell would be difficult, it was but not in the way I thought I found it sickening, too greasy to even bare had to leave the room. Was so pleased with this.

i hear you. i dont like the oily stuff anymore aswell. i drank my first protein shake today. its nice. advertisement on tv is a bit provocative too. so are u plannig to eat those stuff on tv when u can ?

I honestly haven't craved anything. I am not hungry at all. Apple juice is the only thing I want. Crazy. I am having a hard time getting my calories because of this. I am trying with broth and protein drinks and I like them but don't love them. It is crazy.

I really like the Unjury protein powder Chicken Soup Flavor and the Pantry Selections Cream of Chicken. I will do some store bought ones sometimes but they don't have the protein.

Hello everyone, I had surgery on December 9th and was discharged on December 11th. My pain hasn't been as horrible as I feared. It does feel as though I did 1000 sit ups.

I am walking daily and I'm not having any issues getting fluids in. Protein intake has been good, I'm averaging 50 grams of protein per day. I still have an On-Q attached to me and I can't wait until it goes flat so it can be removed.

How is everyone doing?

I am doing okay. I have great hours and not so great hours. I still need aome OTC meds. I am not doing good with fluids. I have to do better. Tomorrow is a new day and a new week so I am going to put my best foot forward!

Def not planning on eating the things on TV adds but it appeases me to think I can lol. Feel better today although still sore, had a bad nite last nite had to go sit upright in a chair and put blankets around me, think my bed has no support.
