Shower and washing hair?
skinny_knees replied to ChrisInc2's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got mine done on Friday and my surgery was Monday. I did not wash mine as instructed. I think it is for people who typically wash their hair everyday. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App -

Freaking out because it's going TOO well?!
skinny_knees replied to fits_like_a_sleeve's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved on Monday and feeling the same. I was actually thinking about calling surgeon today because I had not seen this in post. I am very sore on my right side, but it does not hurt unless I move around. Eating and drinking does not bother me at all. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I think it's normal. It's where they pullout the excess. Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App -

I had no nausea, no gas pains, no problem drinking. I am in pain when I get off the couch or out of bed. I'm ok just sitting. Hopefully the pain will subside in a couple days. I had surgery on Monday. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App -

I had my surgery at 1:30 pm Monday, June 13, and I just finished the 20 laps around the floor my surgeon requires. Right after surgery was rough, but my pain is manageable. That first lap hurt like heck! I think I could get my laps in pretty easily because I did a lot of walking prior to surgery. If you are physically able, you should walk before your surgery. Iecwill help your recover. I also have no issues sipping Water, and not much gas pain Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App
