what is your post-op diet like?
StephS3 replied to suez1105's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
For me it was clear liquids while in the hospital, full liquids for two weeks, and then mushies for six weeks. -

I don't get the "don't eat bread"

I LOVE this!!! Really speaks to me. Thanks -
I use MyPlate on live strong.com. I like it because you can enter the portion you eat down to the tsp if you want you are not locked into the serving size that is on the packages. It is the best one I have found. Good luck!

Timeframe for going back to work?
StephS3 replied to dreynolds05's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also had my surgery on a Thursday and took the following week off. I work in accounting as well. It was the perfect amount of time. But like others, I was and still am very tired, I had my surgery on 7/7/11. So take it easy, but going back shouldn't be too bad. Hope that helps! -

I had surgery with Dr. Halmi on 7/7/11. I think that he and his office are great! Good Luck Everyone!!! -
I had my surgery on 7/7/11. I slept in my chair the first week becuase laying in my bed was too painful. My stomach felt terrible laying flat, pulling and stretching feelings all over the tender site. I would say that you don't have to rent a recliner, but make sure you have somewhere else to sleep, like a chair or sofa, if the bed is too uncomfortable. Hope that helps.
