Froggi

I have a large container of metamucil for when I do get stopped up..if ever lol

I've been on protein shakes in small amounts since day 2 of post op. It's so hard to get protein in because I am just not hungry. I get full so easily. I can't wait until Monday when I can have blended soups yummm lol and pudding

On surgery day I was down 56 lbs and a bmi of 54 I cannot wait until I am in the 40s!

Thank you

From the hospital no. My surgeon and his nurse practioner came in to check on me and gave me the card

Once I start adding creamier liquids and such in the full liquids and mushies will it get some better? I start full liquids on Monday. Have been on clear all this week.

I got mine the morning after my surgery around 7 or 8 am in the morning

I got a card saying I have the band ans such my nurse said to use it in restaurants

My diarrhea did die yesterday but it came back this evening...but I guess as they say liquid in liquid out? Anyone got any ideas to help make it not so bad?

I spoke too soon about my diarrhea being gone...it came back to play this evening.

Posting to ask a not so nice question... Did anyone here have problems post op with diarrhea during their liquid stages and if so when did it end. I'm being tortured.

I'm doing okay...having a lot of diarrhea since surgery...as they say liquid in liquid out. Lots of gas pain still too but the pain in the incisions is letting up some. I stopped taking my pain pills on wednesday

I'm feeling much better now. I am 4 days out. Still really sore but I don't feel nauseated or have diareha anymore. I cannot spell that word for the life of me. Not hungry at all and I start full liquids on monday yay.

Everyone is updated. I had bought a scale to check my weight but everytime i stepped on it like one time right after another the weight was different...so I am going to try to find a better scale...I wish I knew if I lost more or not.

I am fine ya'll...I was just too groggy and nauseated to want to come online...I came on a few times though for like 3 minutes lol. I'll try updating the spreadsheet later today. I am feeling much better today than before...diarrhea FINALLY died yesterday. Since then I have been feeling much better. Before as soon as I drank something it was back out of my system and then i was really weak and tired...today I actually feel like a person again...still really sore but doing good!

I wish I was having constipation issues...instead I'm opposite. :sad: It sucks horribly I want it to go away. HOping it will soon. :crying:

The pain and nausea meds they gave me are pills was crushing them yesterday but today i jut cut them into pieces the crushing tastes horrible Tonight I finally took my main meds without crushing them they are smallish pills though. THANKS TOO :crying: Yes I am!! Just wanting this horrid gas pain to die...and the evil d word...:tt2: I seem to be the unlucky one who gets it instead of constipation.:cool2: Thanks hun I am so happy to be on the other side! Thanks!!! I am very happy! Thank you slim:biggrin: Thanks again Thanks I have been walking a lot...it's not helping much though. Still tons of gas pains. LOL you're silly.:sad:
