I'm 5 weeks post op and until now i lost 29 pounds i think it's slow but everyone is different and since one week I'm having bad constipation my stomach sounds but no stool . I'm started to get worried that this constipation is getting worse and it has made me stall in my journey. Also my doc wrote me a lactose syrup to take but it didn't work .

Hello I'm from Pakistan Two more days and i will be 1 month out of surgery Well my doctor suggested me to try minced chicken mutton and lentils and Beans but very soft after I complete a month To be honest i miss desi food a lot I'm someone who loves spicy food and biryani But I'm controlling I would stay away from rice as much as possible and roti/nan Because they will reduce my weight loss. Btw when did you have your surgery? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Same situation here I'm 2 weeks post op and I drink my broth very slowly that it gets to cold and i end up rewarming it Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Well i would suggest to avoid caffeine as much as you can from now because when you will be post op you cannot have any caffeinated drink so definitely you will have more headaches better avoid it from now and get used to it .. And good luck Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Same issues here before surgery i would drink a lot of Water because I'm a thirsty person but Post op it's hard for me to drink even if I'm thirsty i feel blade running down my tummy when I drink water . But I would suggest just try a different brand of water might work or see which temp water suits you best cold or room temp Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hello everyone i would like to ask what fresh juices are Good in Post Op liquid diet ? I'm 5 days out of surgery and currently only been drinking quater cup fresh orange juice , chicken broth and hardly drinking enough water , but someone said me orange juice is very citric and suggested i should try apple juice but when i tried apple juice i felt vomiting .. Any suggestions on good fresh juice

Thanks for the reply If that is the case then what else shall i have instead of fresh juice ? Because I'm only having chicken broth , water and juice

I agree to that thanks for your suggestion I will try apple juice diluted with water

I'm so worried that i did this stupid thing I'm having my sleeve gastrectomy surgery in 4 days . my doctor gave me 2 weeks pre op diet to shrink in my liver but i didn't followed it correctly i was thinking about that these are my last days to enjoy food i regret it now . actually I traveled to another country to have the operation i had my blood tests and everything I'm worried because what if i have fat liver and mu surgery will be cancelled ? I will feel like a complete loser because all i ever wanted was to do the operation and I didn't took the diet seriously my doc also gave me a ultra sound to do will they find out in ultrasound if i have fatty liver ? I mean does ever fat people have fatty liver ? My BMI is 42 i never smoked or drank alcohol . I know friends who did sleeve gastrectomy but they didn't go through pre op diet and they are doing perfectly fine now Please i need help I can't move the surgery to another date

Thank you all for your reply I'm going to tell my surgeon everything true , I didn't completely cheated because as i said I travelled a different country for the surgery before travelling i was following my diet and after that I couldn't cook myself i ordered from outside . And my doctor allowed me to eat grill or steamed fish chicken and beef . And as babbs said i know few friends who didn't do any pre op diet but are successful with the operation And hellya I'm totally ready for this , this is exactly what i want i know i did the wrong thing . But i have 4 more days left and i will try my best to make use of it get more strict with my diet and walk a lot

Good luck with your surgery . My surgery date is also on 21st Sep Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
