esophageal spasms
theimprovedjulie replied to SoCalBoiler's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had that same problem for about a week. Now I am using ice for my Protein drinks. Hopefully yours gets better soon! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I am 17 days post op. I ended up in the ER yesterday after suffering for 2 days from severe light headedness upon standing. DEHYDRATION IS SERIOUS! Even though I was getting min 64 oz it is not enough! I ended up getting 96 oz plus the IV fluids & feel better today. Please please get some fluids! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Marinara sauce - puréed stage suggestions

On my blended phase I was told to soft scramble the egg, then blend it. My mini food processor has sure come in handy! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
When do you eat and drink?
theimprovedjulie replied to LACRACRA2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My dr said the 30 minutes doesn't apply during straight liquid phase. When you start blended food is when you have to wait. And I started it Thursday & am finding it difficult to get enough Water in especially when I take a nap everyday. Just ended up in the ER with dehydration.

Anyone NOT have heartburn or gallbladder problems?
theimprovedjulie replied to AchieveGoals's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my gall bladder removed when they did my sleeve. I developed severe acid reflux 3 days post surgery. Granted I'm only 2 1/2 weeks out but I'm taking 2 Pepcid/day & it's still waking me up at night. It has been quite the struggle when I need sleep to heal but can't sleep due to the reflux.
