@@Alexis where did you find the seafood stock? I've only been able to find vegetable, beef and chicken. And I've tried the miso Soup from Trader Joe's and I will keep my opinion to myself but I hope you enjoy it.

Oh, another thing, the seafood stock wasn't in the broth section. The stock section was in the same aisle as the broth section but it was several feet away from the broth section. Don't know why, they're virtually the same, but just a heads-up.

I also heard Bone Broth is good. I saw some at Walmart but I didn't pick it up at the time and I haven't seen it anywhere else since.

@@bananashake somehow I though alexis99 made the post. I will stop by my local Kroger on my way home. I also heard good things about the Bone Broth but I think it was made by Pacific. And yeah that miso broth was hideous, I poured out the rest, which was really disappointing because TJ's products are usually pretty good. Thanks again for the info and good luck with your surgery

Hi! My surgery was 12/3/16 and I'm on Day 7 post-op. I think I'm getting weighed today. I don't feel like I've lost any weight yet, but I'm feeling good and excited to have my drain from one of my incision points removed today or tomorrow!!

@@tooka760 the preop is a final review of post-surgery do's and dont's. There's a document review & sign-off: They will also collect any remaining payments due to the surgeon & hospital. Optional "before" photos for your file. The entire session may be done as a big group w/everyone attending that's getting their surgery done within the next week. Total time was a little under 4 hours

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
