DON'T worry about protein. Only worry about hydration at this point. I had NO protein for 4 days only gatorade and water.

Pain on left side under ribs
reno1128 replied to ctsleeve's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Had the same thing. Have you had constipation at all? I did and went to doc and he attributed it to constipation and having to "push" - sorry if tmi. Take a suppository or milk of magnesia and "clean" yourself out. Should help. -

I am almost 4 weeks post op and the sides of my torso and armpits are itching like crazy! So much that it wakes me up at night. Anyone else have this problem?
-
I haven't been on meds since day 4 post op. I have no idea what this is. I've heard its a side affect to rapid weight loss, new stretch marks forming etc... whatever you do DONT google it. Lol...scared me to death.

Sudden Diarrhea 3 weeks out?
reno1128 replied to reno1128's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
They told me it was because I was not meeting my protein intake. They said that protein is forst and foremost for your stomach to heal properly. So I have made sure to meet it and I have had no more problems. -

Talked to NUT and she said I'm not getting in enough protein. -
Surgey was on Aug 14th and I have lost only 14 lbs. I lost 7 preop. I have not lost any weight for over a week??? Is this normal? Im hardly eating anything but getting my protein in. Help.

5'10" SW 242 (Aug7th) CW 223 GW 170 Preop started on Aug 7th. Surgery on Aug 14th. Best advice...... Stay at least 2 nights at hospital Get your liquids in (dont worry about your protein for 5 days) Walk Walk Walk It gets better every day
-
Do your breathing exercises and walk walk walk walk!! Take pain meds if they get too bad. They will go away before you know it. Even if you're just laying there lift your knees up and move your body however you comfortably can.

Im having a tough time. Very hard to take any pills and throw up on liquids. I feel sooo weak. And my head is constantly throbbing. Also anytime I burp it hurts any suggestions? Surgery was 8/14/2013.
