Almost 3 weeks post-op
sammielouwho replied to sammielouwho's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks guys. I had actually picked up a virus and was dehydrated. I went in and got a prescription and four bags of Fluid. I had lost 30 pounds in just over three weeks. Which is good, but I didn't do it the best way. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I had my two week check up on Tuesday and of course at that point everything was fine. However, the next morning all the way till today I wake up extremely nauseous. I'm afraid to take my Vitamins because they don't help. Even when I try to eat or drink something not much is helping. Is this normal? Any advice? I'm trying my best not to vomit, but I almost want to for relief! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

That's good to know, it will pass. I have nausea meds, but they aren't touching this. It's very upsetting :: Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

I spoke with my NUT because of my allergies she's suggesting first thing in the morning to drink some hot Water or tea to break up the mucus. If after this weekend that doesn't help I'll go back in. Thanks guys! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Yes I'm taking a ppi. It's not an acid type of nausea either. No I think I worded that weird. It's that the Vitamins make more nauseous. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Yogurt recommendations please

Dannon light and fit is the only yogurt my surgeon recommends! It also tastes delicious! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

How do you reward yourself for milestones?

My husband and grandparents (we are super close and they're like my parents) are going on a trip when I hit final goal. We were going to go to Europe somewhere, but I think I'll lose all my weight before the unsettled tension stops :/ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Hungry already! Is this normal?
sammielouwho replied to Angie1978's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's definitely both. I'm on the proper meds. The last two days are my first without pain meds so that probably is playing a factor. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
MARCH SLEEVERS?
sammielouwho replied to MRSJONES305's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm hanging in there I've had some "hunger" today but I haven't been brave enough to try Protein shakes yet, but I think I will this evening. My doctor requires or suggests 96 oz of Water for every patient. Since I was doing that two months prior to surgery that's been easier, but not obtainable yet. It come really close today. Maybe I can make it! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

So I'm officially part of the club. He pain and gas seems to have subsided. Soooo, my question is what days after surgery were the worst for you? I'm hoping it's just going to get better and better and not worse and then better. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Our local place has a diet menu where nothing is cooked in corn starch or anything. It's steamed and the sauce is sugar free on the side. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Discolored urine
sammielouwho replied to sammielouwho's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't believe so. I didn't when I woke up:) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
My surgeon's guidelines before and after surgery are 96 oz of Water a day. I'm three days out and surprisingly that's almost been done. Anyway, the question: I have a slight and very minute amount of pinkish tinge in my urine. I know it's not from dehydration. Should I be worried? It's not very much and though I do have some pain everything seems to be going well. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Discolored urine
sammielouwho replied to sammielouwho's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think I've found the culprit. I'm on a liquid narcotic and in between liquid Tylenol. It's shortly after I take it that this has occurred. Of course I'll continue to stay on top of it through the weekend, but I'm thinking that's what it's from. Hubby looked and said he doesn't think it looks pink...hmmm Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Mine seems to be more muscle type pain under the incisions. It hurts to try and get up and down. :/ I haven't really had gas since he first day and I'm not having pain drinking my Water. The pain that's bothering me the most are definitely the surgical sites. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
