just spoke with my surgeon today

can y'all belive, that he told me i can go back to the gym after just 6 DAYS post op?

sorry, there's just no way in hell i can go back to working out this early.

he brought good points, i'm alive, i'm 19, and i should be moving. but maan my new stomach hasn't even healed yet! ffs.

he's a great surgeon, well known here in Brazil. but as with all good professionals, you can't be good at everything all at once. my surgeon is definitely lacking some emotional intelligence 😂

Today for my morning hot drink I grabbed a short Cappuccino. It was so good and I had no issue with my stomach after. As an avid coffee drink pre-op, and not having any caffeine for the last 2 weeks... It was the best cup of coffee I have ever had.

I'm sure he has his reasons for telling you that, but my doc said no working out for 6 weeks or until she clears me. I am supposed to be walking as much as I can comfortably. I've been trying to work up to 3 miles, but I don't walk fast and I take breaks when I need to. Maybe just start with walking a comfortable distance.

I'm so jealous!!! Let me know how your new tummy tolerates it through the day. I want to drink coffee so badly but my doc says to wait 3 months after.

It's been about 4.5 hours and no issue. From what the nutritionist said at my doctors office, it is really dependent on the person. I have always drank coffee all day, every day, so I just don't have sensitivity to it.

Hi everyone! I’m 5 days post op for gastric sleeve. I’m doing pretty good really no complaints other than itchy incisions and the big one is sore. So I am now on the full liquid diet. Is it ok if I have a little shredded cheese in my creamy Soup or not yet?

I wasn't allowed cheese during my liquid diet, but everyone's program is different. Didn't you get written instructions from your doctor?

Tomorrow is my first day on the puree diet. I'm looking forward to scrambled eggs and refried Beans.

How many people have already started on the puree stage, and what is your favorite new food?

you should be focusing on see through, clean, liquids in this phase. i think that's a general worldwide consent. i think a little cheese will be fine in the pureé stage, but watch out for the sodium on that cheese

      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.
