I was laying on the couch not paying attention & my chi-weenie dog jumped on my stomach! Talk about ouch!' Robyn
-
I have been very careful bc she loves to lay on my stomach, but I wasn't paying attention. Normally I have been laying with a pillow on my stomach when I am on the couch, but the time I don't have it, she picks to jump in my lap. Poor girl, she probably thinks I am ignoring her! Robyn

I had an incision that wouldn't quit bleeding so they wouldn't let me shower. I had surgery on a Tuesday & showered Thursday when I got home. :-)

I found it at a natural store, but I think their website gives locations you can buy it. :-) -

Yep!! So delish! Robyn -
Those that drink nectar, do you drink it with milk or Water? Just curious! :-) Robyn

I know we are only allowed Tylenol after surgery (fine for me bc I am allergic to all NSAIDs anyways), but can I take a Tylenol PM (or half of one)? Or melatonin? Something?? I am having a hard time falling alseep at night, & would like to take something to help me. What has your doctor said? Of course I will call mine before taking anything, don't want anyone giving me medical advice if they aren't "allowed" to! Lol. Robyn

Nurse said I could take it, no problem! :-) Robyn

Mine doesn't allow Jello either on the 2 week full liquid. I am like you, sick thinking about drinking yet ANOTHER Protein drink. What about Popsicles? I am allowed creamed Soups, are you? I am on full liquids for another week (HURRY UP 26th!!), and I am so ready for blenderized foods. Robyn

My doctor has me on 2500 mcg sublingual a week. I could take it however I want (500/day, once a week, whatever). I found some sublingual that is 1200 mcg. How would you take it it? Right now I am doing two days in a row. Would you spread that out? What do you find gives you the best energy? Thanks! Robyn

Am on all liquids. When I "eat" cream soup I notice a lot of "bubbles/gurgles". I don't know how else to describe them, but that's all I can think to describe it. My husband doesn't understand, but hopefully fellow sleeves do! Is this normal? Thanks!
-
I was on Clear liquids for 7 days, now full liquids for 2 weeks, start blenderized food on the 26th. Follow YOUR doctors orders though, s/he has a specific plan for you to follow bc it is what works for the patients they see. :-) Robyn

When I "eat" I Get Bubbles?
robynluevano replied to robynluevano's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No, like you, it doesn't hurt, just feels weird. And I have to arch my back & it helps. Seems like sometimes it is gas?? Sometimes I burp, and sometimes I don't. ::shrug:: -

I was told Flintstones are easiest for "us" to tolerate. And my doc said to take a calcium citrate supplement. :-) -

I am now only on full liquids, but just preparing for when I am on soft foods. Since I don't eat ANY seafood, what is the suggestion? I am just thinking wayyyyy ahead, lol. Maybe my tastebuds will change & I will like it. Lol. Thanks y'all! Love this site & the great people I've met on here. Such great suggestions, help, and encouragement. Robyn

I am the same way with water only! I am 2 weeks post op now, and able to drink a bottle of water in about 30-40 min if I wanted. I can't take large drinks, but I can take a normal "sip" and keep doing that 4-5 times in a row. Put it down, wait a bit, then again. I have no issues drinking water. Other things (milk, no sugar juice, ect) I have to sip. Robyn

Wow your doctor considers cream of wheat a liquid? So interesting how each doctor is so different. I'm not being snarky, or trying to sound rude at all, I am just surprised!! Robyn -
What Is More Important To Drink The First Few Days? Gatorade? Protein?
robynluevano replied to SkinnyMinnyMom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
All my dr wanted me to focus on the first week was staying hydrated with any Clear liquids. Robyn
