Thank you both SO much! I was a little nervous! lol Very useful info!
I'm 3 1/2 weeks out and I haven't lost anything since last Friday... In fact, I've gained 3lbs. I don't mean to be gross, but I took a laxative yesterday b/c I haven't been going, and I drank a lot...
Thanks, everyone! Really appreciate the feedback. I have been able to take my sublingual b12. I'm just gunna get my fluids and as much protein as I can, and ask the nutritionist on Tuesday, which is...
I haven't been able to take my vitamins in 2 days b/c they make me gag! They are centrum children chewables and I am only 9 or so days post op! I was going to order some new ones off of the bariatric...
Be careful b/c sometimes people get headaches from not drinking enough water!
No longer a student, but when I go back to school I will keep that in mind, thanks! I might just have to deal with the price and pay up!
Congratulations! Good luck with everything!
Idk, but congratulations! Lol When I came home I had gained weight from the surgery but then lost that and ended up losing like 15 lbs since Wednesday. Are you going by your pre-op weight or what...
@Lindsey, does Costco let me go in for a day and buy something like BJ's? These shakes are hella expensive to ship!
@Angelina, congrats on your surgery! I'm glad it's over with aren't you?? LOL I...
I was about to buy the Premier shakes online and it costs as much to ship them as it does for the actual product. Same on Amazon. Has anyone found these anywhere besides Costco or Sam's Club? I...
Jodie, I'm 6 or 7 days out and this is actually very helpful to me! Thanks! Also, congrats on your weight loss!
I was told no nail polish which obviously meant my acrylics were out of the question. lol
It sounds awful :( Maybe you should call the hospital where you had the surgery. Someone there can tell you what it is probably, since it's a holiday.
I'm not any more experienced than you with this sleeve, so I don't want to give you an incorrect answer, but I have had 'chest pains' since surgery and in MY case, it is just gas.
Like you said, it may be shallow but that's my motivation, to look good in my clothes and be able to shop at the MALL in a 'regular' store.
I feel your pain! I have been craving a mcdouble for the past two days and seeing other people eat is hard. Certain people have been bragging about having Chinese food, etc. and I'm just like "You...
@Lindsey I remember hearing costco had some really good shakes but we just got rid of our costco membership because we tried bj's and liked it way better. Do you know the name of the shake? Maybe I...
I ended up having some watered down butternut squash soup.
Next week I will be giving the big Trader Joe's near my house a try! Girl, I WISH I was too nervous to eat but I have been so hungry IDK why! I've only eaten yogurt and I had some broth today but, I...
I had my surgery on the 23rd (Wednesday) and I was able to start full liquids when I came home. I have taken to everything fine. I know I can have tomato soup (it was in my instructions) but I have...
I must be an uber fatty cause I am so ready to eat and it's been 2 days! LOL
I was prescribed some medicine to 'keep things moving' for the first 10 days to be taken before 'meals' and colace, a stool softener. Haven't gone yet, but hopefully a stool softener will help. Maybe...
Oh my gosh, I hope it happens! I know that defeated feeling all to well, and even when I had a surgery date I still didn't believe it was happening. The process can be mentally damaging, I tell ya!...
Everyone says it can stretch your sleeve, but most people that I talk to that have had some soda (diet or regular) say that the amount you can drink is so small. Most people have a few sips and are...
I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully they will find out asap and get you on track. I'm scared that I won't get my fluids in. I don't see it happening today, honestly. Yes, he's so nice! I'm glad he was...
