  1. Lovely I did have a problem with the little dizziness or weakness. It was about eight days postop. I laid down and I took my blood pressure which seem to be a little low. I took a little nap and after that I seem to be okay I did add more Water that day and I seem to be fine. I have not had any other problems and today is my post op.I have been taking blood pressure pills for about 13 years now and it seems that my blood pressure is starting to be pretty low. I will see my doctor in a couple of weeks my primary care doctor that is, and see what he suggests. I understand that you normally don't get off your blood pressure meds until you lose about 50 pounds. Deb I'm praying for you too. You will do fine.
  2. Athomas, I havent tried the new whey liquid protein but it sounds yucky. I have tried the plain powered whey in and hate that too :-)
  3. Kathy, I also had a hiatal hernia repaired that I didn't know I had.
  4. Kathy my pain the little bit of pain that I had, was surgical also. I took pain medication while in the hospital once because I don't do very well with pain medication. I ended up having to take pain medication two more times maybe day four and a five and then that was it the soreness went down and the swelling went down some and I was much better. I hope you feel better soon.
  5. Chelle, u r too funny. As women we r just used to taking care of most things ourselves. Definitely rest your body while you can. When someone else has to take over for a while, they ready appreciate us more :-)
  6. Sue, unjury is good. I like the vanilla and strawberry but I have add more liquid to the strawberry because its so sweet to me. Great loss.
  7. Lovely, awesome loss. Yes the unjury shakes are good. Champion chocolate brownie is good too.
  8. Lovelytrl I lost only 5 lbs my first week too. Hoped for more but it is what it is. My 2 week post op is tomorrow. I like the vanilla and strawberry unjury. The strawberry is very sweet so I add a few ounces of water.
  9. I didn't use a cpap machine but I feel like im sleeping better now for some reason.:-)
  10. Hey Babble girl, lol, chellede My incisions started itching at about one week. One was very swollen and irritated but calmed down quickly. My belly button area developed a large bruise that it didn't have the week prior but it doesn't hurt so I guess its just tissue trama. I thinkim healing pretty good.
  11. Thanee, you will do great. Good luck to all our October sleevers.
  12. Chellede and everyone, we can all do it! Yay! The soup sounds great. This Tuesday will be my 1st apt, my 2 weeks. I then have a 1 month and then one a month til one year. How about the rest of you?
  13. Susan I was exactly like you. I only followed the 15 min rule the first 2 days. Then I could drink the protein drink, about 12 ounces in about 30 minutes. I can do it about 20 minutes. I will see my doctor on Tuesday. I will ask about it. I dont seem to be having any issues with gas or pain. I hope it doesn't mean that I will be able to eat hardy too, lol.
  14. Simply Sue My doctor only required clear liquids the day before.
  15. I hope I made the reply to the correct person. I'm still recovering laugh out loud.
  16. Chellede that is awesome. Make sure you don't overdo it I did the first couple of days because I felt so good. Keep up the good work. Get lots of rest too.
  17. Chellede, hru feeling?
  18. Kathy My prayers go with you. All will be well. Go into surgery positive and come out positive ????. We will be waiting for you.
  19. Karen I did notice that when I took a drink that was a little too big I wouldn't get the burpees. It seemed to last for the first 5 days. Only get that occasionally now.I do seem to have the sensation of bubbles in my stomach most of the time but it does not seem painful to me
  20. I don't think your personality will change unless you lose 50 or 60 pounds and get extra fine :-) I felt a bit off for the first few days but it will pass in a few days.
  21. Kathy Lol, thanks. I think its the lack of food getting to me. I hope Chellede laughed out loud too.
  22. Kathy Lol, thanks. I think its the lack of food getting to me. I hope Chellede laughed out loud too.
  23. Chellede Your stomach is pissed off, lol, what's left of it :-) mine growled a lot the first 5 days too.
  24. Karen Congratulations! Sounds like you had good drugs like me! I hardly remember the first night, lol.
