CONGRATS and welcome to the BP family!

Wait like two weeks to step on the scale. You're pumped full of fluids. After two weeks you should be pleasantly surprised

Welcome to the party... yeah avoid the scale until post visit.. concentrate on recovery, Protein and fluids... the 3 are a must the 1st 2 weeks in... take any anti acid meds, Vitamins and Calcium... it's that simple ...

Thank you! Any suggestions for getting back into exercise. I could barely walk a block this morning without almost passing out. Kinda scary.

Make sure to take some benefiber with every liquid you consume! The Constipation is real! May be a good idea to keep some milk of magnesia handy.

I am 4 days post op. Still feel very bloated but overall feel great. I've noticed that drinking the bone broth and allot of walking has helped more than anything. Good luck in your journey!

Don't make it only about weight, follow your plan and treat your stomach like it's a newborn. Get your Protein in, even if you don't think you can, find a way. It's easier for me if I drink it. Isopure, or the equivalent, has 40 grams of protein in each bottle. That's half the amount right there! Doesn't taste bad either. I like to dilute it a little with Water coz it's sweetish tasting. But there are zero carbs. The other go to us called Muscle Milk. It's dairy-free. 25 grams of protein, 0 sugar. Good luck and keep us posted! I'm only 5 weeks out.

Good things come to good people.

Try sucking on sugar free popsicles! Pedia light has a popsicle brand especially for dehydration. Or even make your own out of crystal light.

I measure mine out so I know I'm drinking enough fluids. Once I drink 20oZ I move to my next 20... Seeing 64oz at one time can feel overwhelming when your can't take much in at a time.
