5 days out and eating everything. I just cant.

Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App

I just saw that post and was going to ask if it was a joke. It's got to be a joke, right? I think there are a bunch of surgeons out there who need to do a better job screening their patients, because clearly the message is not getting through. Either that, or there are doctors out there who have no regard for their patients and are doing a half-assed job of preparing people for life after surgery. chicken 5 days post op. . . . I just can't . . .

I agree. My doctor sent me home with the post-op diet sheet and at the top it basically says "follow this diet or you could die!" In bold letters

It's insanity. I've got someone telling ME I've got to do better at telling it like it is instead of coddling.

Because y'all know how much I coddle.

I really wish you'd stop being such a softy ????????

Now that's funny! I like your doctor.

I gotta say, the craziest scenario I've seen on here so far is the gal that weighs 115 pounds, but wants WLS to "cure" her BED. Not only did she find a surgeon (in another country) to do the surgery and has a mother with unlimited financial backing, people on here continue to enable her! This poor girl is not getting the help she really needs and is likely going to end up seriously ill WITH THE HELP AND SUPPORT OF BP MEMBERS!!!

I'm just lurking and reading - don't mind me!

@@LipstickLady - my roommate brought home popcorn... and not just any popcorn, buttered hull less! *sighs* I only had one piece and honestly... not as good as I remember, and I'm good - I still have a bag of unpopped popcorn sitting in my desk drawer at work... since before surgery - and I haven't touched it!

*goes back to lurking and reading*

I missed the Swedish fish post apparently

Trying to figure out why I didn't have to ask the great Vets here what to eat or not eat. I never once ate CARP.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
