Everybody is asleep and everything is ready for tomorrow I just felt my anxiety go from 10 to about 3 . This is a great forum , I really apperciate all the encouragement. Now it's time for me to settle myself for the evening. Everybody have a great night and I hope the scales are kind to everyone in the morning ...lol

I do the okios I think that's how it's spelled I have plain, blueberry and carmel. It has like 11 g of sugar and 13 g of carbs and 10 g of protein. My nut as well as my physician told me it was ok . I brought the individual (4 oz serving) and it was Awesome:) my sleeve had no problems digesting it and an hour later I was able to get 16 oz of water down . This was the first meal ive had since my surgery on 8/14. Each physician and NUT may vary in your diet and when you should eat what. As a nurse I always reccomend you follow the specific orders of you person physician. Dr James Harris in Wilmington has you on purée diet two weeks out if you tolerating full liquid well.

Seriously guys I'm about 3 seconds from balling like I'm 3 . I swear I don't want to feel this way about my children .....they are the reason I did the surgery becuase I want to live as long and be as healthy as I canbe for there kids. My seven year old just told me to go lay down and he would give my 3 year old a bath in my bathroom and he did it ... Got him out and dressed him and everything ....( ok the tears have arrived). I can't wait for October so that the hard part will be memories and I can get my mother of the year award back ! And it back to work for me tomorrow .....lord give me strength!!!!

I'm really concerned that I may be loosing to quickly I've literally lost 23 pounds in 5 days . Has anyone else experienced this ? Starting weight 235 this morning 212.

No my doc didn't have me do a preop diet because I had lost 14 pounds two months prior to surgery with diet and exercise. I went in at 235.

I would say investigate the possibility of a leak if that hasn't already been done. They went over heart rates over and over with me prior to being released. My doc advised me to call him ASAP if my heart rate went up .

I just posted something similar . My sugery was on August 14th I weighed in at 235 today I'm 212 It almost scared me as I wasn't for sure that it was healthy but from what I gather this is normal. The advice I got was to enjoy it and though it scares me a bit I'm trying to embrace it as a wonderful start to my journey. Best of luck to you

Hello everyone . My surgery was on August 14th done by Dr. James Harris in Wilmington NC. How everybody doing ?

Lucky you. My surgery had no complications but the anesthia caused really severe N/V and the pain med caused even more nausea. I'm still struggling to get fluids down but each day gets better. Good luck to you on your journey

The O Yeah brand has 37 g of peotein and the GNC has 29

There is a strawberry and cream shake made by O Yeah that is awesome. GNC has a lean strawberry and cream shake that taste great as well.

I'm excited about it but I wasn't sure if this was the normal loosing curve. I'm really having issue's keeping up I'm still on the full liquid diet and I know I'm not getting enought water or protein. It's physically impossible for me to drink 68 ounces of water, but I do get in about 36 ounces. I drink 29 grams of protein and I do that in 3 seperate incriments. I do the best I can
