I think I have healed remarkably and I'm getting my Protein and liquids in! It's just hard to not be disappointed. I have a work trip for 3 days tomorrow and that will be good I think to just not think about it! Thank you guys!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

im starting to freak out. Today I lost no weight. And I hear when you start stalling it's a while! Ugh. I'm at 13.8lbs loss and I was hopping to not start stalling until 20-30 lbs. so now I probably will bc I'm gonna be freaking out everyday Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm a week ahead of you. Pain is mostly gone. But definitely miss the ability to drink Water. If I drink fast it just hurts and I burp. Ugh otherwise everything is good Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

awesome! How are you feeling? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It's honestly going a lot better than expected. First 24h suck. By 48 you still hurting pretty good. I came home day 3 and went to work day 4. I'm EXTREMELY tired and that part is annoying. It's definitely a mental game. There's a depression about being so bored around not being able to eat. Ppl say you will regret the surgery until you don't. I have not had one regret. I knew it wasn't gonna be easy, so I prepared myself. I did a week of Clear liquids. Started full liquids today. Incisions are healing well. Pain is much more like being bruised than terrible now. I'm very surprised with my weight loss for being low BMI. I was 195.8 day of surgery 201 when I left the hospital since they pump you full of fluids and I was 183.2 this AM. So a 12.6 lbs from surgery date and 18 from the post op. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How tall are you? And that's a bummer! It was self pay, so glad I didn't have to deal with that. I was BMI 33. A week ago when I got it done. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

if they don't mind you having issues lifting a pencil... Haha!!! I'm trying to put up a front but the lack of calories really gets to you. I walk around a 200,000 sft building all day. I've had trouble concentrating bc I just want to sleep. Lol. From being tired. Everything else has been great! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm a week post op today and my first week was clear liquids only. I was wondering why but today I had a Protein drink and it hit like a ton of bricks. And I have healed very well. So try some broth, tea, and clear Protein drinks. I bought a 4 pack at Walmart with 20g of protein per bottle. It's an Atkins drink and they have 3 flavors and are the consistency of favored Water. Good luck Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Ok guys... What chicken broth do y'all recommend? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yay how exciting. Congrats. I'm on day 3. Headed home from Mexico. Get home tomorrow, then life will start. Keep us posted Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks everyone!!! On my way home right now. Sitting at the airport and it's been a bit challenging. I feel hazy I think from being hungry. Even though I'm not hungry per say. But feel weak and definitely very very gassy still. Can't wait to sleep on my own bed tonight. Actually, I can't wait for a month to pass by. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
