Oh and I haven't tried eating yet. I'm not really hungry. Just been having some Water and some protien shake. I tried broth but that hurt so I'm going to wait a few days before I try again. I'm still having to take the zofran like clock work and the codeine liquid too. How is yalls swelling? Is your tummies still enlarged? I'm still bloated. I can't tell if it's swelling or the trapped gas.

I'm feeling so much better today. I think the swelling for the hernia has gone down. I'm not having painful burps when I drink anymore and I can feel and hear the air come up from My stomach. I didn't drink nearly enough yesterday. But I'm feeling good. I only slept in 2 hour increments the first night. But last night I was sleeping about 3-4 hours at a time.

I didn't get a drain either. Today isn't too bad. Some gas pains. I had a hernia fix as well, but we knew going in. The doc said my hernia was much larger than shown on the EDG. He also said that I had one of the largest stomachs hes seen on a low bmi patient. It explains alot. Between having a huge stomach and the acid reflux hunger pains. Thats why I was always hungry.

Sorry. I found out on Monday that basically I have big boobs and they put the leads in the wrong spot. Surgery was tuesday morning at 715.
-
I'm out. My arrival time was 515. Surgery at 715. Very tired. Hope your experience was s good am mine yall
-
I've been semi good on the diet. I've lost 6lbs. But I'm low bmi so I'm not expected to lose alot.
-
He said that basically my boobs are big and that they didn't put the leads for the EKG in the right spot. I'm good! Wooohooooď

I'm going to a different state. I'm in TN, I'm flying to TX. This morning is my appointment for cardiac clearance. Wish me luck!
-
How are yall doing? I'm packing and preparing anyway, just in case. If he clears me I'm gonna have to make a mad dash to get to the plane ontime. Yall packed yet?
-
He said it would be about 80% I think the "%" depends on how bug your stomach is at the time of surgery. Because the stomach is able to stretch it's hard to pinpoint an exact percentage I would think. Yeah if it's serious, then I would be okay, but I'm pretty sure it isn't serious. I'm 28, lower bmi and 0 history of heart problems.

I will I'm kind of freaking cause it will cost me ALOT of money to reschedule. Like a grand. ???? I'm hoping it's nothing serious and he sees all is well on monday morning and let's me leave as planned! I'm trying to keep my mind off it. It's more difficult that I thought, it seems to be all I'm focusing on.... Is it Monday yet?
-
This is my hope. That it's something simple. If its a serious issue Then of course that will be different. But I'm fairly positive this is not anything serious. This makes me feel better! Thank you!

100% whey protein isolate
JapGirl replied to RoadToMe's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It may be lactose intolerance. I know that's common. Genepro and Isopure are both okay for dairy issues if it's dairy then you may be struggling to process the regular when protien, but whey isolate is safe for people like me Btw If you want to try the genepro you can order samples -
100% whey protein isolate
JapGirl replied to RoadToMe's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I like Isopure and GENEPRO. I have to have Whey Isolate because I'm lactose intolerant. Isopure is really good mixed with almond milk. Genepro only comes flavorless. Isopure - 1 scoop has 110 calories, 3 gram carb, 0 sugars, 25g protien. Genepro - 1 scoop has 98 calories, 0 carbs, 0 sugars, 30g protien. -
@@KarenDM I actually have found the perfect answer. I have been telling people that the time off I'm taking is for the hernia fix. Well turns out someone in my department had the hernia fix when he was in the military and he said he lost a ton of weight after and was on liquids for a while and ate much smaller meals etc. So I plan to use that excuse!
-
I will! Thanks for the insight
-
I told them when I scheduled the appointment. I plan to belay this to the doctor as well
-
I'm hoping since I'm 28, with a lower bmi, and low blood pressure, and 0 family history of a heart issues at all, that i might have a glimmer of hope..... I'm not putting too much into it though. Gah. They've had the results for almost a week. Why wait until now to tell me when I'm so close to my surgery date ????
-
I hope I could get whatever tests he needs that day. I'm in freak out mode.
-
I'm taking 2 weeks off. I know there's typically a lifting restiction for 6 weeks. All my work may have been in vain. I wont know for sure until Monday but I may have to reschedule. They JUST TOLD ME today that my EKG was abnormal and I'll need to see a cardiologist first to get clearance for surgery. I have an appointment on Monday morning but if he doesn't clear me that day then I cant have mine done ????????????????
