I Hate It When People Misuse "literally"!
lessofmeismore replied to GeauxForIt's topic in Rants & Raves
Guilty as charged lol I have always said I could care less. Now that you mention it; it really does not convey what I am meaning lol -
The burping after drinking a soda is hilarious. I took my first drink of diet Dr pepper, I promise is was just a SIP and I let out this long long long trumpeting burp. My daughter grabbed the can back and declared no more soda for me. So now I sneak my sips and quiet my burps lol

Pain Is Discouraging
lessofmeismore replied to elibu's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Really concentrate on your water intake for now. Especially since you have an active infection. Also the antibiotics you take to clear an UTI require lots of water. So drink as much as possible. Water overload -

Avillias- it could be lots of things but a few reasons it might happen would be constipation which can block our ureters from draining our kidneys adequately. Also maybe dehydration because in the beginning it is so hard to get our fluids in. I hope you start to feel better soon!!! -

Has Anyone Cheated?
lessofmeismore replied to zebrasprinkles's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The tv commercials were the worst. Ugh. I never realised how much life/tv revolved around food. I had to turn it off,it was making me so hungry. The only thing that got me through the healing process was repeatedly telling myself it was temporary. It was a very difficult time indeed! I was counting the minutes down to my next food progression. -

It's important to follow your doctors plan because he knows what he did and used for your surgery. Not all vsg surgeries are identical. Also with all the swelling we have after surgery, you could have a leak/problem and not realize you did damage til weeks later when the swelling subsides. I'm not lecturing or looking down on anyone, I would never do that, I'm just stating some information for consideration. -

What Were You Eating A 4 Weeks Post Op?
lessofmeismore replied to lovex5's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was just transitioning from creamy/purees to mushy food at 4 weeks. Its hard to say what you can or cannot eat because everyone's diet is so different post op. I would stick with mashed potatoes, soft vegetables etc. I'm not sure at 4 weeks u will be able to handle turkey. Best of luck!!! -

Glad you caught it, lissa Let us know how your doing after surgery. I'm hoping I don't run into any problems but I'm just not that lucky. -
Sami, it will get better. The first days are hard but walking helps the pain in your chest. Take some pain medicine and try to walk with someone helping you. Congratulations. You will feel better in about 3 to 4 days!

I know a guy who took Epson salt for a laxative, this is gross so I warned ya but he said his BM's were sludge for an entire day. That stuff is potent. If anyone tries it, give us an update. -
Cowgirljane- that's what I do as well I like to just steal a little off everyone's plate. I'm also guilty of telling my husband, "oh no you don't want a potatoe for your side you want beans" lol because I want beans Hehe Hopefully they still love me

Peripheral Neuropathy
lessofmeismore replied to WhoDatFishinFool's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I too have PN and I've stopped taking my meds for it because they cause weight gain. It's a horrible feeling but I think the worst part was the testing for it. I will never forget that.. -__- Please contact your Dr ASAP! Best of luck to you!
