    incentive spirometer?

    Addawn replied to boosh10's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Hospitals and doctors offices are great places to get sick, maybe you have picked something up? I used mine for 2-weeks and I am fine.

    I'm two weeks out and I am able to eat soft foods including eggs, eggs salad, chicken and tuna salad as well as soft cooked veggies and pureed fruit. The only time I have an issue is if I eat to much or too fast.

    My surgery date was 1/27. I lost 17lbs before surgery and 9 since. Steady is what I'm looking for, as long as the scale is going down every time I step on it I am a happy girl!

    Still Hungry!

    Addawn replied to nanno90's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    It could be either you need to drink more or you are not getting enough protein...or a combination of both. I'm 15 days out, I don't get as much hungry as my energy starts to bottom out and I know I need something.

    Time off work?

    Addawn replied to readinva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I initially took two weeks off, then opted to telework for 2. I only took off 1 week and am teleworking for 3. I want to get over the digestive issues (the runs) and be tolerating solid food before I go back.

    I had that too! It gets much better, I still have it on occasion (as they say, Never trust a fart LOL) but not nearly as much. On of my friends had surgery 3-years ago, she assures me it will stop completely.

    I'm so happy for you!!! You are doing GREAT!!! I am using Genepro unflavored protein, 1 small scoop has 30 grams of protein and you can put it in anything including coffee and soups. I mix it in pudding as well.

    Bariatric advantage

    Addawn replied to LBS15's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I was supposed to, but I have problems with artificial sweetner so I bought Genepro. Its flavorless so I can mix it with anything, I really, like it.

    Struggling w/ post diet

    Addawn replied to Pac-woman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    You may want to step back to liquids for a couple of days, then try soft food again. My husband had to do that. your tummy may not be ready for soft food yet.

    Prayers Love, I hope you get some relief.

    my favorite tastes like a Mint Chip Milkshake. I use 3/4 c Skim or 1% Milk, teasp. of coco powder (more if you want more chocolate) a couple of drops of mint extract, unflavored protein powder, and about 6 ice cubes. I put it in my ninja mixer...yum!! I look forward to it!

    Addawn replied to Penny C's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I'm on my third day of Pre-Op, it sucks but not as bad as I thought. I have three protein shakes per day, a cup of light soup for lunch, and veggies (1 c. cooked 2c. raw) for dinner. I'm glad I have a ninja, I can make some really good shakes with it!

    Anyone else on a foodie farewell tour? I've been on one since I got my date (1/27) I think I've gained 10lbs! On on my last few days, my pre op starts Tuesday. This is madness!

    I picked the gastric sleeve because I have severe Ulcerative Colitis and my Gastro and Surgeon thought it was the best option.
