    Drinking While Eating!

    My surgeon says do not drink water 1/2 he before or after. To keep the protien (that we eat first of course) in our pouch longer. To make sure we get all the nutrients from the food. The water would push it through a little quicker, leaving less nutrients in our stomach to be flourished into the body. Just my 2cents.

    Coffee?

    My surgeon says decaff tea or coffee is just fine.

    5Th Fill

    I really see a lot of these same post about the fills. I'm only 1 week post op today, and the band fills we're a big discussion in our health group. My surgeon specifically said its clear liquids for 2-3 days after a fill. Then full liquid again for 2 days. Then slowly ease back to foods. Is this different for everyone too? Just wondering

    Day 2 After Surgery

    WTG girl! I'm a week out tomorrow. Made it around the block today! Yay! Everyday is another learning experience. good luck. Stay good!
  9. After this surgery, I'll be happy to be healthy, if there's excess skin. Right now, I DoNT care!! Least of my worries. Just want to be in good health do I can run around with my grand babies - whenever that happens. Hopefully not for at least another 15 years lol!! In my mind, doing the skin removal surgery is too permanent. But I know for some it's a nessecity. Good luck with everyone's choices.
