IDK...putting yogurt...down there....kinda weird...

Will I ever be able to take a normal drink again? or will I always have to take baby drinks?

the reason i asked is because i forgot for a minute that i had surgery and couldn't take a normal drink...and of course took a normal drink of water...as soon as i swallowed I was like oh CRAP that is going to hurt...i kept waiting...and nothing...then suddenly...a little sharp pain and it was done...i was like...wait...really? that was it...does this mean i might almost be normal again? that would be AWESOME!

My jeans are to big already! And I went to Walmart...just looking around in the clothes to see what's out there for when I need to buy a few staples...and I found this really cute black and white printed maxi dress in a size 22/24...only one they had. So I bought it. Came home, tried it on..just to see how much more I needed to lose for it to fit...and holy balls it fits!!!!! Have to wear a smoothing garment under it...but it fits!!!!

Other than a few throwing up episodes I have not had any issues. I feel amazing!

Holy COW that sounds sooooo good!!! I know what I am going to make tonight!!! lol.

I sooooo want a pickle! I have been wanting one for DAYS!!!!! But I can't have one yet!!!

OMG!!!!!! So happy for you!!! I hope I do as well!!!!!!

I can't wait for you to have yours!!! It's going to be so awesome!!!

eat some jello...seriously...that has helped me get over the head hunger...just to be able to chew on something...or feel like I am eating something....

ME TOO!!!! LOVE that in such a short amount of time I have soooo much more energy!

The first 3 days I had some major regrets....but then I stepped on the scale 3 days post op and saw I had lost 5 lbs and it totally flipped a switch in me. 1 week post op and I have lost 12 pounds...I will NEVER regret this life changing surgery again! I can't wait to lose more and do all the things that I have always wanted to...this surgery has given me my life...and for that I will ALWAYS be grateful!

Alternate positions? lol. Im kinda thinking this will be an interesting topic!

Little silver bead things on the collar? 20 bucks?

I had surgery on Monday and was back at my desk on Thursday morning. I felt great and it helped me get back to normal...well my new normal.

Jello, pudding, milk, protein shake blended really well with some fruit, grits...well if you are on a full liquid diet that is.

I'm 3 days post op...I can barely manage to get in 6 oz...how did you guys do it?

Welcome!!! I am 4 days post op! Today has been one of the best days I have had! How are you doing with everything?

who cares how tall you are??? You look FANTASTIC!!!!! SERIOUSLY! All that height means is you get to find you a super tall man...so you can wear heels if you want...or you can wear all those dang cute flats they have out now!

I can see others have posted in this section but I can't see the posts....

im obsessed with it too! i went thru this morning and ordered a child's sweet and a medium unsweet....mixed it together...and added some lemon! Voila! a drink i can sip on all day!! Im actually excited...i seem to be getting in more liquids today....which is AWESOME! I had 6 oz of apple juice already and and about a 1/4 done with my tea....im sooooo hoping that I will be getting in all my liquids soon and will be able to take in something with some more consistency....

I feel like i am posting all the time now....but i am having some lower back pain...and shoulder pain...as everyone fears...i am afraid i might have a leak...i have been coughing although it is a dry cough...and I think that the shoulder pain is actually from me tensing up so that it doesn't hurt so bad....but of course my head takes over....anyone else have this issue?

I attempted my first food intake since surgery...it did not...I repeat did not go well. I attempted to eat a few bites of potato soup..tummy started getting mad so I stopped...goodness is this what's its going to be like?
