@@SoExcited101 did you have to come off the pill 2 months before or after surgery?I asked this question in a support group last week. They said they used to require woman to stop by pills pre-op but don't any longer. That better be true because I am hoping to get a surgery date with in a week or two following my pre-op appt with the surgeon and if he tells me I need to be off the pill for a month or two I will lose my ****!I definitely agree!!Right lol Sent from my LGMS550 using the BariatricPal App

I was sleeved on 8 22 16 & my doctor told me I had to come off of the pill for at least 2 months. I would talk to your doctor who is doing your surgery before you do the birth control thing to be safe. Sent from my LGMS550 using the BariatricPal App

I just got sleeved 8 22 16 can't eat any of it so no struggle this way lol. But the day before my surgery my brother had a bbq I went and just had Water. It was tempting but not worth me getting off track with my surgery. Sent from my LGMS550 using the BariatricPal App Goodness that looks delicious! Sent from my LGMS550 using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for sharing this touching testimony to me! It really put a smile on my face! Congrats to you as well! Sent from my LGMS550 using the BariatricPal App

I have to admit I was kind of thrown off when I seen a MCDonalds question from 2011 then read this lol but I felt the same way myself. I was so over the liquids but in the long run it's worth it and you don't want to eat the wrong things and risk getting sick. Just drink plenty of Water and Protein it will pass. I know it seems easier said and done but I was sleeved 8 22 16 and I'm still on mostly liquids. I take it a day at a time. Stay positive and you will have a true testimony for the next person.

I had my surgery 8 22 16 as well and was told to just walk and wait a few weeks before doing weights and hard training. I also just walk around my house, the left side of my stomach still bothers me to be doing anything strenuous. Sent from my LGMS550 using the BariatricPal App
