  1. Went for my first post op visit yesterday. (Surgery was on the 19th of feb) They removed my bandages and everything looks good. I'm down 38lbs and I can have soft pureed foods like eggs, and fish. I feel good. I go back to work in two more weeks. That's what I'm not looking forward too. Lol

    Started my liver reduction this morning. I'm dying for a cup of coffee.
  6. I'm still on full liquids. However I had enough of these bariatric fusion drinks. All I wanna do is drink water and even my yogurt and cottage cheese taste funny. What's wrong with me?
  7. OMG! The weather was do nice yesterday. I decided to take a walk by the water. Then I went to the mall to walk around. My left side hurts like hell.

  13. Hey guys. Every morning I get up I weigh myself. And it appears that I loose a pound a day . Is this normal for anyone else? I mean I love it but is it coming off to fast?

    February Surgeries

    I just took it one day at a time. Each day gets a little easier. You can use gas x for the gas pains and walk around as much as you can. Trust me it will get better.
  15. Good morning all. This time last Wednesday I was being prep for sur g ery. So many things were going thru my mind. But thank God I'm here at home 30 lbs lighter(including the 10 day liver reduction diet) and recovering well. Left side still a little uncomfortable but I'm progressing very well. So far I feel like this is the best life changing decision I've made. Congrats to all who decided to join the losers bench.

    The first two days r hard. But just hang in there. You don't want to become dehydrated. I'm one week out today and I'm still not 100% it's a process. You'll be fine.
  17. Anyone having gas pains? And still experiencing mild pressure on the left side. Still hurts to move around, laugh, cough. Want to call doctor but don't wanna be a baby. It's only been 5days

    Day 5 post op

    Good day all. I had my procedure done Wednesday. I'm feeling pretty good. Haven't used any pain med since yesterday. However I'm still using my pillow as my crutch on the left side. It's getting better each day. I've been sleeping on the couch. But tonight I'm gonna try to sleep in my bed. I'm still tolerating my liquids fine but I must say if I sip another can of broth I'm a vomit. Lol
