Sleeved 8/16/13 About 7 weeks out loving life

How long before alcohol ? Or simply one glass of wine ?

Many of you post before and after pics .... How did you deal with excess skin ? Going from a size 20 to a size 10 is a difference . Is it just working out during the week or a combination of diet and exercise ? I'm a little worried

Saralyn4: I ate about 1/4 cup which was advised to me by my doctor . It made me feel full as well so it depends but I would think no more than 1/2 a cup. If you feel like your going to fast slow down .

I am 6 weeks post op- sudafed used to work for me now I've been taking tj for 3 days and nothing. Can someone recommend something else ? Plz

Tish23: thanks but that's the one I'm taking is the one behind the counter 12hr . It hasn't worked as it used to before ... Anyone else taking anything different ?

Tish23 : I'm extremely congested

You look amazing congrats !

You look great !

Sleeved 8/16 Post op starting weight : 287 Surgery date : 266 Current weight 6 weeks post op: 234

Can I take suddafed? 1 1/2 month post op?

Is anyone else getting sick after drinking this daily ? I was sleeves 8/16 and was home on Saturday . I'm on a stage 3 diet which means clear quids. And fluids - with a requirement of taking thiis.

What about the ranitidine? I have to chew that too. ?

I was told to get chewable vitamins but some of them taste horrible. Do I have to chew them or can I swallow. Post op- surgery date 8/16

When did eating become more become more normal. I was sleeved 8/16 and have been on a liquid diet. Can't wait to be able to eat salads and Fruits ...

How long does it take for the healing to be done with before laying on your stomach and side don't hurt as hell anymore ?

If you eat too soon and don't follow the diet - or you eat when your healed and over eat

Anyone else legs fall asleep when you lay down for bed??? I was sleeved 8/16 and since I came home Sunday 8/18 both right and left top calves have been falling asleep at night when I'm laying down. Sharp pains on both top halves....

(Jma32) Feeling the same way - I was sleeved 8/16 - maybe it's too soon - but I can only hold down water , crystal light peach tea, and broth- feeling like everything is going straight through me. I can't so protein just yet makes me sick . Hope your doing better !

My surgery was 8/16 . I'm still having issues with holding down protein. And all I've been able to hold down is broth -and water . Can't wait to change It up - day 4 and sick of broth ...

Ok will do . Thanks !

Savanna - I wish I could be less frustrated - I am 3 days post op - and all I have been able to hold down is crystal light - water - and broth. I've tried the carnation instant breakfast - I've tried the cream of tomato soup and cream of mushroom soup( none of which my stomach has been able to hold down) . I can't seem to digest the vitamins well . My biggest frustration is not being able to eat actually healthy foods yet (fruit, salads). I'm afraid if my body isn't handling the simple milk down how is going to hold or digest regular food . Uughhhh!
