I put a cap full of miralax in my coffee every morning. Works.

Just to add to the above: Metamucil or Benefibre are great

I’m 21 days post-op from VGS..I have been on purée phase since day 14 (to go to day 30). I have been drinking my pre-op shakes still and doing a little purée, but honestly, I’m just not hungry. It takes everything most of the time for me to want to eat. Anyone else dealing or felt like this around this time? Starting W: 268 Day of Surgery W: 253 Today’s W: 234

My pre-op is the 14th surgery on the 19th too. I am in the OMG it's a week from Mon feeling right now. It feels like just time just flew by so fast.

Wow!! You look FABULOUS and so tiny! Congrats on a great report and for sharing! Can't wait for pics of progress and of your sis' wedding!!! Woot!

Yes! Absolutely! My latest measurements pre-surgery: 12.5neck bust 38 waist 29 hips 38 135lbs I also have a photo progression by month but haven't updated it in a long time.

Just because you slipped up once doesn't mean that you'll go back to your old habits. You need to trust yourself that you can overcome your addictions and live a healthy life. Besides, your new stomach not rejecting something today doesn't mean it won't tomorrow. I had a couple of spoons of ice cream with chocolate and was fine the first time. Next time I had such horrible dumping I swore I would never again eat anything chocolate.

I had my surgery on Tuesday and was home by Friday am. Immediately after surgery I had zero pain or discomfort, but I was extremely dizzy. So I waited about 7 hours before venturing our of my bed after sitting up for about 5 minutes. By morning I was walking around like nothing. The main thing I'm dealing with is the water retention. My hand from where the IV was is still "swollen". I came back home and weighed myself after drinking only about 30 oz of water in 4 days to find I gained 5 pounds!!! Shocked isn't quite strong enough to describe how I felt. I'm assured that its all water weight and it will go away quickly. My incisions are nearly healed with mild bruising around. I walk everywhere, not without effort, and I sip water and clear protein drinks all day - 1 sip about every 5 mins or so. Absolutely no vomiting at all, which I am pleasantly surprised by. Guess I'll wait for this water to go away?? Oh, and a weird thing is I started my cycle 3 days after surgery. I still had 12 more days to go when it spontaneously started. I thought that was weird.

Be sure to take your D3 and calcium together but apart from the multi. The calcium and iron don't go well together for absorption.

I just got sleeved 8/2/19 I walked in on Friday morning and was sleeved by noon... The pain was crazy the first night.. it was a combination of gas pain and my stomach feeling twisted... Saturday was a breeze just gas pain and now it's the 5th and we have gone shopping at Costco for our regular routine stuff.. the pain is gone but gas come from time to time...
