I like the Caltrate vanilla chews.

One month out only 16lbs down. Constantly constipated, no weight loss in 2 weeks. Lots of meds to make me go, no dairy at all. Still having sharp isolated pain when I cough, sneeze or turn over. No energy, no desire to eat cause I know it's just clogging me up.....and the list goes on and on....not to mention depressed!

Fluids are my struggle which doesn't help with my issues.....I think right now I just want one "normal" day....lol

Ok I'm 6 days out and I smell everything! My dogs, my carpet, my trash can....my fiance came in from work and I had to leave the room! Will this get better??

Got it thanks for sharing! -
I had GB last month and my Dr takes out your gall bladder as a precaution.

I'm 18 days out and my advice is don't go against your Dr's plan. I started purred food yesterday and pushed the envelope a little and had a soft food and threw up right away.....not plesent at all.
-
Excited that I get to start pureed foods tomorrow! I need a little variety....lol I'm healing well and have my post op next friday, but going back to work on Monday. Surgery was 3/25.

I'm in the same boat...15 days post RNY. Nothing tastes good. Having to force the protein in.

Full liquid diet and pain
skc72 replied to nikki.marie86's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't worry, while I was in the hospital I thought I was gonna die. My bladder was slow to start and didn't pass gas till I got home. But it does get better. I'm 14 days out -
I had Gastric bypass 3/25 and am getting married 8/1/15. Having surgery 4 months before getting married kinda freaked me out because I already bought my dress, but my fiance said we can get a new one :-)
-
I came home from the hospital 19lbs heavier.....but from reading the posts about it I expected a gain and it took a week to get back to my surgery weight.
-
Drink it through a straw....I used a tervis cup straw and was able to down all 10 ozs at once. I ended up having to drink a 2nd bottle so the straw definitely helped.

Glad you're feeling ok!
-
I know I'm 10 days out and a basket case! I cry at the drop of a hat and go from happy to sad to happy to mad in 10 seconds or less. Hoping this ride stops soon before my family commits me.....lol
-
Been in my bed since the first night but propped up on 4 pillows....hurts to lay flat or on my sides still. I only sleep about 2 hours at a time for some reason. Sorry to hear of your abscess hope all heals well.
-
Glad to hear you are doing ok! I'm 9 days out and still a little uncomfortable at times, but headed to Universal Studios tomorrow, so I know I will be worn out. How did you like the staff at Tampa general? I thought they were amazing!

3 week liquid diet post op
skc72 replied to kamcar616's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My NUT gave me the suggestion while on purred food to use a cream soup like cream of chicken and add baby food chicken. She said once u blend it together u would never know it had baby food in it. I'm working up my brain to try it when I switch to purred.....lol -
Congrats and love the tats :-)

I had my gall bladder removed along with having my gastric bypass. My Dr said he wanted to be pro active, that he knew I would have to have it removed in the near future so why cut on me twice :-)
