Too soon to go back?
torismom2 replied to bmbrush413's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You're exactly right - work can wait! I took off three weeks. I did fine when I went back, but you have to get your protein in to keep feeling good. I also found that it was much easier for me to get on a regular eating and protein drink schedule when I am at work. -
I was sleeved on Dec 19th and a lot of foods just don't taste good to me anymore. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it temporary?

Nausea and being tired -- 3 weeks post op
torismom2 replied to toodabarn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 5 weeks post-op and still feel nauseous every time I eat. Food doesn't quite taste right either. I am hoping this will pass in a few weeks. -
Wow, your doctor must be really conservative! I got to start adding back regular food at 4 weeks. I bet you can handle scrambled eggs or mashed potatoes, but don't want to tell you something against your doctor's instructions.

Anyone had surgery and was alone afterwards.
torismom2 replied to MsBriteEyez's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had a friend take me to the hospital and home again. I don't think you need to worry about being able to get around... they make you get up and walk a lot in the hospital! And walking is the best thing for you too. I live alone and I was glad that I didn't have to be around other people eating at first. I think you will be just fine!! -
Oh My Gosh, This protein drink is so delicious!
torismom2 replied to MamaDupa's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I am sooooo tired of vanilla and chocolate, but I hate the fruit Nectar flavors!! I add a scoop of unflavored to my vanilla or chocolate, and I also add sugar-free Jello pudding mix (dry) like cheesecake or banana for a little variety. -

3 days out and having trouble with liquids
torismom2 posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hi, I'm Stacey. I had my procedure done on Wednesday, 12/19. I am having trouble getting enough fluids in. I try to sip on my water, but things like Crystal Light just taste too sweet. And I don't like broth. What should I do? -

Thank you all. Th last few days have been really hard! -
My doctor says I can't take any pills for 5 weeks after surgery, so I should crush my medications to take them. However, one of my meds is a coated pill and it says not to crush. What should I do? I HAVE to take this med!!
