    TOM and Cravings!

    I haven't had a continuous period like that, but I have been getting it twice a month like clockwork. My surgeon's office said the first 6 months toootally wack out your hormones, so any sort of weirdness is normal. My weirdness has persisted past 6 months, and my gyno thinks it's because I restarted BC. I got off of it a month before surgery and two months after because of the increased blood clot risk. Still haven't normalized, and if it continues, she'll want me to switch to another level. Your hormones really change dramatically.. Wow twice a month, I don't know which is worse going on 12 days or twice a month. Hopefully these will return to normal soon.

    May 19-23 Sleevers, Roll Call!

    Sleeve on Monday May 19th, from pre-op to now down 31lbs . Been back at work for over a week now, back was really bothering me at first. I think due to having to sit up straight all day, it still is bothering me but not as much. However I go for my follow up appt today and will let the dr know.

    Eggs

    Saturday was my first scrambled egg, Eggs are approved for me in the pureed stage. I did almost eat the whole egg, however about 15 mins afterwards I could tell I ate to much. Have to remember to eat slower!!!

    Surgery Glue on Incision

    You can shower, just let the water run down your stomach. Glue came off about 2 wks later for me, healed great!!!
  9. I’m coming up on my 2 wks post op, going from full liquids to pureed foods and looking for tasty food ideas. I have eaten beans smashed up already, does the pureed food truly need to pureed to baby food consistency?
  10. Thank you everyone for the advice and ideas, much appreciated!

    11 days post op. Help me!

    I'm 9 days post and I am too feeling hungry!!!! I have not been able to get my Protein drink down, but trying to force it down hopefully getting more protein will help.
  14. I’m 9 days post op, and still having difficulty getting in the correct amount of fluids. Crystal light pink lemonade and sugar free popsicles have become new best friends. I have been able to drink one whole protein shake so far, however it has taken me all day to get it down.
