I didnt get to know you before your surgery but I am really glad you are doing better and I have heard nothing but great things about you and can't wait to experience them myself. Welcome back Ron Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

I can swallow decent sized pills but on an empty stomach they make me sick. My nut told me thats the only exception to drinking when eating is to take that vitamin. I have a few different chews from bariatric advantage my favotrites from the 250 are lemon and raspberry and from the 500 the orange. Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

could you be hitting ketosis post-surgery as opposed to pre-surgery? Sounds like "carb flu", especially with the metallic taste in your mouth…What is carb-flu? They just hooked me up to a IV and have me drinking a drink so the can do a CT scan.Hope all is ok Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

Was the pain almost like a pulling sensation?Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk Yes, I think when I reach up it definitely hurts, but even getting up and down now hurts more than it did this past weekend.A few of us have gotten that pain. I only experienced it getting up. One member said she held a pillow against herself while she got up. The pulling sensation lasted on and off for a little over 3 weeks for me.

Oh I'm going to have to check those out. I know Powerade zero and Vitamin Water zero are sugar free. They have really great flavors and the vitamin water zeros have B Vitamins in them that may give you a little boost of energy. Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

I've been fine with cooking. I got upset because my husband was going to order out because I had class. The fact that he was ordering out didn't bother me it was his list of possibilities he was rambling about. I said in the nicest possible way I didn't care I didn't want to know. But then he decided out loud he was getting pizza. That made me upset I got angry at first then sad and to top it off I'm not even a pizza person. Lol. Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

It's normal. This group is the best. Here want to feel better. My first cry was over a sportsbra.I have an incision between my breasts so I couldn't wear a regular bra and had to get a sportsbra no wire and barely any support. I balled my eyes out because I felt it made my boobs look ugly and I had to leave the house like that. It's funny now but it wasn't then. The sadness passes and will before you know it.

I think everyone goes through a little depression. I know I did my hormones were everywhere except where they should have been.My surgeon said one sip wait 3 min take another sip if you can sip again in 3 min do it and keep that up until you can sip anymore, then wait 20min and try again if you cant then 30min.

In the beginning you feel like you don't want to do anything but deep down you know you have to. I would go to the store, just for little things powerade zero or vitamin water zeros but enough for one day so I could do it again the next day. You feel better when you start moving more. You will get short of breath fast but take your time, it isn't a race. Your body is stronger than you initially think. Maybe even getting up to walk up and down a hallway or from room to room if the store feels like too much.I walked in the mall 3 days post op it took a lot out of me but I felt better. As far as sipping goes I think it's different for everyone, maybe set a timer for sipping so you can remind yourself you need this so sip sip sip. Hope these tips help Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

Hey everyone just wanted a lil info from anyone who may know. I was curious. What do we do if we throw up? How long do we wait to eat again? Should we drink something before trying to eat? Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -
