Just be sure you’re okay to use a binder. If your team didn’t give you one there may be a reason. Staples, for instance, may not be good to be compressed. I’m not a doctor by any means but it doesn’t seem like that would be a good idea. If they gave you one then yes, I agree with @Mspretty86 the binder was a great deal of help for me too but if they didn’t give it to you I would run it by them first. They should have an after hours number for those who just had surgery, I would call them about the pain meds. They will be able to tell you what to take and when and maybe even call in something else if you have an aversion to the liquid.

I do not want to scare you and I hope your experience is better my first movement after the sleeve almost sent me to the heavens 😂😂😂😂. I don't know what to tell you to take to make it more smoother. I hope the laxatives you take make it come out smoother!!

I',m waiting for the laxatives to kick in now. At first I wondered what kind ifnsadistbwouldmtellmsoleone to take a laxative at Bedtime, but now I get that it's nit an immediate thing. Hopefully tomorrow will be the day. My surgeon did say if I haven't had a movement by then, call them.

The only two outfits that I managed to get pics in while on vacation. Black high neck bodycon maxi, macramé fringed shawl, granny square boat neck sweater & tiered dress. I’ve worn these many times in but I try to wear them in different ways. Anyone else working a capsule wardrobe? Staple items? Favorite style?

I have a caffeine limit it’s about as much caffeine in hot chocolate, I am allowed hot chocolate which is wonderful with winter coming up. I find green tea off putting in taste but I drink matcha for its benefits.

ok then I'm going to prepare myself for that on Thursday, are you ready to start your pre op diet have you bought everything you need?

hi and welcome, my surgery day is 10/29 and I have my pre-admission appt on Thursday, is that when they gave you instructions on when to start your pre op diet?

Hey all, Thank you for your lovely comments ❤️ I genuinely appreciate every single one of them. I'm still in a bit of a slump at the moment! I have gained for the first time in my weight loss journey (albeit just 1lbs at the moment but still), my weight doesn't seem to be shifting down currently. I also bumped into a friend today who said: "you are looking so much better"...like...okay... I hope this mood/weight gain/stall goes away soon x

Cute outfits! I’ll play too.
