    Sorry it was five incisions, I think each incision had one to three sutures, can't remember exactly. The two incisions in very front are healing slower than the other three little ones

    yes so far so good. the sutures I attempted to take out and one of them still needs steri strips, it bulges open, but no bleeding. keeping it clean and steristripped for now. afraid to take the others out. out of five stitches I have three out.
  3. Hi!
    First week stuck mostly to SF Jello, Knorr's Chicken/Beef bullion, Otter Pops (high in sugar, but made with apple juice) herbal Chai tea, and water, sometime with cucumber slices to infuse a flavor.
    This week on day 10, I began incorporating full liquids like Carnation Instant breakfast, tomato soup adding a half scoop of flavorless Isopure protein powder, and may try some applesauce.
    I did not like the post op diet instructions sent home with me from my surgeon and found a more clear and helpful site through the Mexico Bariatric Center website.

    Hope this was helpful.

    I actually have heard of them(BB), if you don't mind can u private message me how they are? My brother might be getting himself sleeved soon, i wanted to compare the two, also do you have consultations here in the UK?
    If you don't mind please can be send me a PM about your experience ie: the hospital BED (in belgium those beds were amazingly comfortable, the hotel stay, nurse care, ..basically the 3-4 days u were in Czech, i would really appreciate it as my brother and i are both researching which one to go for, for him.
    Hope you are doing well, trust me.. everyday gets better and better x

    Hi wendy, hope your surgery went well today , where did you have the surgery? In the uk? Congrats on doing this for you, trust me it will be the best decision, the first week will be difficult..you may even think..why did i do this to myself? Being on just liquids and figuring out what is good to drink and what isn't can be stressful, but just remember to have sip on water, even though u dont want to, sip on it.. it will help. Also semi/skimmed milk.. and if you want some sweetness in the drink, go for unsweetened and 0 concentrated juice..without bits.. like Innocent juice (except orange and citrus juices as that can give you gas.) I diluted multivitamin juice with chilled water and drank that in the hotel on my 2nd day post op.. i wont lie, the first 3 days are the hardest.. from day 4 you kind of feel better, atleast i did. If you have any other questions just send me a private msg, i will be happy to help
    20 days out of surgery, and this is the best decision i have made for myself, i have lost 11kgs, and have become more active than ever..without getting short of break, unlike before
    I guess you will be resting all day today, which is normal, i was out of it for the entire day of surgery due to the drugs.. i slept all day, the next morning was a bit better but still, i slept most days..didn't wanna do anything, not even talk coz that was making me vomit.. it's normal. Take care x
  12. I leave for the hospital at 7:45 this morning. Good luck to both of us.
  13. Well currently nil by mouth, can't sleep and extremely anxious!
