2 Weeks Out And Cheating With Solids
alliegb3 replied to Onederland's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
If you're cheating on ur diet- expect the pain. Follow that to the letter. I know it stinks and you're ready to be normal, but what you're doing is dangerous. It'll go away in like 20 mins. Don't cheat again. -
Mine were supportive, but we live in a misinformed world. You'll get through it, love.

2 Very Different Vsg Philosophies -- What's Yours?
alliegb3 replied to Fyrefly's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Depends on your NUT and how fast you can take things. I am 1 1/2 weeks out and doc has me on soft food. It's only two bites of tuna, but this should be about managing healthy food intake and exercise output -

Lumpy Thighs And Massage
alliegb3 replied to Knee2010's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
It's the pint of getting circulation going through your legs. If you massage them, put lotion on them, roll them, put caffeine on them.... It'll work. Just get the circulation flowing -
It's like all these clothes are now in our grasp. I used to hate clothes shopping but it was cause I couldn't find anything... As we get thinner- the possibilities expand

How Soon Did You Return To Work?
alliegb3 replied to CandiKiss's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh definitely if you gotta lift stuff- take longer. My doc said 4 weeks if I work on the floor (of the hospital, cause I gotta lift patients potentially) but I get to go back early cause they're putting me as a secretary for two weeks. -

alliegb3 replied to CandiKiss's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
2 weeks. But I could've gone after one week. I think you should go back after you follow up with the doc. That will be one week from discharge date (not actual surgery date) -

Taking In Alot Liquid
alliegb3 replied to lailabrownskinned's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I came out drinking just fine. I have no issues getting all my water in whatsoever. But one day, I ate two Popsicles, and boy I felt it. Now that I've started mushy food- oh, restriction is there. But water is no issue. Be grateful -
Yep, soups are great! Make sure it's low fat and no lumps (or stuff you'd have to chew) pudding, yogurt, all fair game. Congrats!
