CONGRATS and welcome to the BP family!

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

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

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.

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.

Thank you. Right now I am fighting dehydration.

Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

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

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
