First off, don't eat and drink at the same time, even if you "can", drinking while eating flushes the food through your pouch. Just stop that habit right now, go back to the waiting 30 mins after eating to drink.

You've provided no other information, we don't know your daily calorie count, Water intake, etc etc etc.

But from what you've said, your surgery worked just fine, you've just stopped working with your surgery.
Time to get back on the horse and start following the instructions you were originally provided. If you are unsure, call your surgical team and follow up with them, you should be doing that anyway as you really should have done your 1 year follow up blood work at this point.

Very encouraging. I just went through the information stage. I am a little sccared. I want to loose 150 lbs. What is your best advise.

Curious, why was my post funny/laughable?

Maybe... but maybe not... we'll have to see if they take the time to bother to answer.

Shewww! For a second I thought IIIIIII was the one who clicked on the laughy emoji! :) And I'd do it only cuz I'm used to you crackin' me up--so it's reflexive. :D

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
