So I found a squat challenge. 100 squats a day for 30 days. Today is my first day doing it. Worth a try for something different. Looks fun. Sent from my Moto E (4) using BariatricPal mobile app

hit a small stall but didnt give up upped my protein and exercise and kept on

Looking the nurse in the eye after she'd put in the catheter... Oh the indignance! This thread just brought back those memories 😂

I had lotion, body soap, change of clothes for 2 days just in case I had to stay an extra day, and a good book for when I couldn't sleep at night. You might want to bring some good house shoes to walk in. Sent from my Moto E (4) using BariatricPal mobile app

I still don't do pasta at four years out. Empty calories that take up stomach space. I have eaten zoodles a few times, and they're a decent substitute. condiments - they do have sugar, although I still used them occasionally. As far as spicy things, if you can tolerate them, there's nothing wrong with eating them. My sense of taste intensified after surgery, so sweet things tasted sweeter and spicy things tasted spicier. I couldn't handle spicy things quite as well as I could pre-surgery, and to top it off, I couldn't slam a glass of milk after eating something that was too spicy for me since we're not allowed to drink right after eating. SO...I did shy away from spicy things for awhile (I still don't eat anything *super* spicy, since I can't drink anything afterward to cool my mouth down!!)

Pre surgery testing for me was ultrasound of liver, abdomen, etc., EKG, and labwork. That was it! My surgery date is June 3rd [emoji3] Sent from my LM-G710VM using BariatricPal mobile app

My English isn't good if you don't understand anything tell me and I rephrase it [emoji28][emoji28] The hardest part was at the beginning to learn when to stop eating, because with less of 1 oz of food I was full and vomit if I eat a little more. The easiest is to buy clothes now🤣🤣🤣🤣. Well I think is not easiest part, but when you start to feel better, physically, your self esteem. My pre diabetes and my high blood pressure dissapeared, you feel better. I think people treat me the same, some think I make a good decision, others I feel are waiting me to fail. But I hope to have enough discipline to keep doing it well. You have your surgery done? Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I’m 4 days post op (5/24), and I have no pain or discomfort, but I’m so nauseated, I feel terrible. I’m not dehydrated because I’m getting over 60 ounces of liquid in. I took a pill that my surgeon gave me for nausea and they do help a little, but I hate this feeling. Anyone else on the May surgery list feel the same?
