What's are you doing about clothes?
Mama Spike replied to Disabledaccount's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Not sure if you have a Clothes Mentor in your area. They have nicer clothes than a traditional thrift shop. You can also trade in your old clothes. However, they are style conscious and rejected several things I wanted to sell as they weren't in style. dde0b -
If it were me, I would up my liquids to 64. Only decaf tea and add walking. I don't go to the gym but I have a fitbit and work to get 10,000 steps a day.

Shall-what are you eating, drinking and how much exercise?

Not loosing weight
Mama Spike replied to DeAnnaGRn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That is only 5 days. You may still be carrying fluid and/or need to have a BM. Be patient. -
It is not common but I went home the same day and my surgery didn't start until 1. As long as you can pee, drink and walk you should be fine. As always if something needs further monitoring they can always keep you. Good luck!

I went home the same day but this is not the norm.

I put a snug tank top on after. I have an incision that would have been irritated with a sports bra.

My doctor put me on liquids for breakfast and lunch and a small meal for dinner. You will be fine just go back to liquids.

Get a fitbit. It measures steps and you can add your dance. I can't always get to the gym but I am working my way up to 10,000 steps per day.

I liked them but they grew old quick. My husband (non-sleever) is still buying them after I quite drinking them. I am still a fan of muscle milk light.

My Lunch: A Pictorial Attempt To Show You Life Will Be Normal
Mama Spike replied to gamergirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Looks good but what is the protein content? -
I like Sobe lifewaters. I buy them at Costco. And I like diet cranberry juice.

Great ideas just need to talk the other half into them!

I am taking biotin and b12. I am going to restart my coQ10. That helps my energy but it is only a gummy not chewable or liquid.

One month weigh in :(
Mama Spike replied to ualaw08's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am just shy of my one month mark and I have lost 21lbs. I would say my diet is 95%. Hang in there, we can do it! -
Shall-I have been exhausted too. Doc says it will be a month until I get energy.
-
Sounds like everyone is doing well! I am hanging in there. Still tired and needing more exercise. Shall-I wouldn't worry about it too much. My weight goes up and down every day but in total I am down 21lbs in almost 4 weeks. Just keep working the plan and get enough water and protein.
