Eat slow and small. My husband gets on me every time we eat. Like everyone said just a couple ounces and stop once you feel even the first sign of "full".

I have not. I've not shared my surgery with anyone except my husband and my boss. Good luck with everything!

I went to Trace Curry in Cincinnati, OH. Very happy with the care and results.

I've seen a variety of timeframes my doctor recommended waiting 6 months. I'm curious how long did everyone wait and what was the tolerance?

Is a 6 week stall common? I've been holding steady for a solid week.

Tuna salad felt stuck to me too.

Although I'm still on soft foods for another five weeks, I'm starting to feel like myself again. A week in the hospital battling dehydration and major GERD made me question what I had done. At last,...

I'm trying to figure out if any certain foods trigger it. It's like I'm choking on fire. Can't even think about laying down:( I'm only three weeks out (Thursday) so I'm hoping it settles soon.

Where did you find it? I hate swallowing the pills.

How long before the heartburn subsides? What's the best medicine?

Ranger...I agree. I'm sure it will feel awesome in the not so distant future. Looks like you are having great success with weight loss. For the first time in my life I'm eating to live...not...

My surgeon gave me two weeks but was happy to release me once I was feeling up to returning. I had surgery on April 21st and returned on May 2nd. I could've easily returned earlier.

I ended up taking a week. Worked out well.

I'm 5 days out. Having difficulty with water seems like there's an air bubble with every sip. Juice and jello seem to go down a bit easier but I e had virtually nothing since the surgery. Incisions...

Good and bad. My doctor requires Medifast/Proti-VLC diet. The powdery packets get old really quick but its convenient. 100 calories each 5/day. It's been a hungry two weeks. How was yours?

My surgery is tomorrow...feeling the same!!

Best of luck. I'll be with you on Thursday!

I'm having the same dilemma. At one week are you up to returning to work?

Amazing testimony! Congrats and thanks for being inspiration to others!

I'm right there with you! Started my preop diet on Sunday. My doc requires you purchase their food which is powdered low cal low carb high protein. Mostly soups, mashed potatoes, drinks, etc. The...

I'm impressed with your rapid weight loss at only 105 days out. My surgery is next week and I'm hoping for success like yours!

Welcome and congrats! I'm scheduled for April 21st!

Good luck. I'm the same size with the same goal. Surgery is the 21st. Interested to see how things go for you!

Your insurance covered the tummy tuck?

Your insurance covered the procedure?

I'm curious how much time I need to take off work. I have a sit down job that requires very little movement.
