Why reduce Fluid intake??

I had my Tummy Tuck and breast lift 8months post VSG. I kept taking my regular Vitamins as well added Bromelain, and Vitamin C. My surgeon actually felt I healed quicker then other patients. She did have me reduce Fluid intake for the first 2 weeks post surgery. I am very pleased with my results.

She said that it would decrease need to get up to pee and reduce swelling.

I did bromelain, arnica and turmeric for healing and inflammation. I think it helped! Got them all at Vitamin Shoppe.< /p>

Had my pre op visit today the dr. Was adamant I get the lift now.. He hadn't seen me since the first visit in September and I've lost more weight in the boobs of course, I decided on silicone high profile 500 cc, so nervous about the lift and scars, since I already have so many with the sleeve and gall bladder taken out.. Ugh have to make up my mind by tomorrow ????????????

Went for post op check today. Things look good. Dr left drains in. He said when I only get 30ml out of them per day he will take them out.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
