I am in East Oak Lane and had my surgery at Abington hospital.

I have found taking colace every other day helps.

2 days post op 6 lbs weight gain
KimLC27 replied to mishi's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I gained 20 pounds from all the extra fluid but thankfully lost it in 5-6 days. -
What is the best Unflavored protein powder? I am very discouraged because everything I try I really hate. I tried unjury unflavored today in my crystal light and could barely get 4 oz down. The premier chocolate shake is ok but I've had so many now, I can barely get that down!

I was surprised also! I had bypass on 8/4 and just advanced to puréed yesterday. -
I had my surgery on August 4 at Abington Hospital. When and where is your surgery?
-
Yes , I am taking a colace daily and it has helped a lot. Still with the left sided pain, but it's better. How is yours? I get tired easily too- been walking at night around the block twice and it wears me out. Two more days and puréed!

The gas x strips are good. I went for post op appt and all was good but this left sided pain is frustrating. I have cut back a lot on pain meds and I really want to not take any pain meds at all , but it's too much do you think it's muscular from all the manipulation?

I also am having a lot of pain on my left side and was a bit discouraged today. Glad to hear I am not alone. Thankful that the pain in my left shoulder from the anesthesia ,which had been severe,is going away. I have been struggling though with getting fluids in and finding things that taste good. 5 more days until puréed food!!

I am confused and thought this was for people having the bypass surgery, not the sleeve? -
