Wow it is official. Congrats!

No not at all. I just consider it a bump in the road. I am still positive that things will improve again. It is just going to take time and lots of patience. I wish you the best of luck. You deserve this chance at a better life.

I am doing ok now. Unfortunately I had some complications. You always think I will be fine those things won't happen to me. But sometimes they do. I won't stress you out with the details. Just know that you will probably have some hiccups along this journey. I thought once I was done fighting with insurance things would get easier. It hasn't. There is always opposition just in different forms. Don't let anything stop you from achieving your dream.

So I just had my first experience with dumping. Rapid heart rate, dry heaving, dizziness, and diarrhea. Here's what I don't get, it was from taking to big of sip of water. What the heck? Anyone else had this?

I think it is actually when I drink. I am going to try and take smaller sips and see if that helps. So how are you doing?
-
I am 8 days out and all of a sudden I keep getting hiccups. Only about 3 or 4 and then they stop but not fun. Anyone else had this or know what would be causing it?
-
5 days post op and feeling great!

I had surgery on May 26th. The first two days were pretty rough but I am feeling much better. Still a little weak but excited to start this new life. Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive on this sight. I have started cottage cheese and some strained soups. Any other suggestions on this soft liquid diet phase?
-
Best of luck. I am 5 days post op and already feeling pretty good. The first few days are rough. But know that things get better. You can do this. My thoughts will be with you on the 3rd.

Surgery date is May 26th. Yippee!!! I am six days in on my pre diet. It's not to bad but I am so tired. By dinner time I am ready for bed. Hope I get a little energy back I have a lots of things to get ready before Thursday. I haven't been to nervous yet but I am sure that will come. Thanks for being so supportive it is amazing how much bariatric pal helps. Just knowing others are going through the same thing helps.
-
I am so excited for you. Sounds like you are doing great. I am scheduled for surgery in 5 days. Can you tell me what that first week post op was like and when were you able to be up and about with your regular routine?
-
I started my pre op diet today too. Funny thing is I had to take my daughter to an appointment. I had two hours of free time on my hands and truly did not know what to do. Normally I would have gone somewhere to eat. Now just sitting in the car surfin bariatric pal. Lol. Maybe a walk around the park. Hang in there. We can do this!

Anyone ever tried a pressure cooker? My sister who had WLS a year ago swears by it. She says it makes her vegetables soft but keeps the nutrients and makes her meats tender and moist. I am a little nervous to use it. I would love to hear if anyone has tried it and some recipes.
