Wow well I'll never do it again. It was so easy to eat! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Omg yes me too! I had soft chicken the other day and I felt I could eat more chicken then I should be able to. It's only been 17 days since my surgery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Is it normal that it was so easy for me to eat? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm allowed soft food at week 2 so I can eat soft chicken turkey etc. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had mine too. It doesn't affect anything. And the pain meds made me forget I was on my period Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How much weight did you lose in your first month? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It's my 11th day since surgery and I was losing weight without exercising but now it's stopped. What type of exercises do you recommend? Should I just walk for now? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Is it normal that my incision is raised? Like is it gonna turn into a scar and just be raised forever? Surgery was just Monday 9/19 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Do you wait 30mins after eating to drink Water? I'm so use to drinking after a meal. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was sleeved 9/19 as well! It only gets better. I definitely think the Protein helps me without me even realizing it. I do try to get up and not let my body get stiff and walk but it can be hard. As for the Water just do your best. It is hard but you'll increase over time so it'll be fine. I also haven't pooped either. My doctor told me to add miralax to my Protein shakes, so we'll see how that goes. However I'm not too worried about pooping. Especially since I've barely eaten!

Like is this normal? Today I've had 2 Protein shakes and pudding. It's my 5th day since surgery so I'm still on the liquid diet stage. I will be eating some strained Soup later. It's weird because I'm not use to eating and drinking so frequently. I use to chow down a big meal and not eat for hours then eat another big meal later. I'm not use to these little meals all day long. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Is this normal? The hunger is intense when it happens and it's hard to satisfy myself. I have a fear of stretching my stomach and eating too much so I'm really careful with sticking with the 1/2 cup size of food they told me to eat. I also do my Protein Shakes.

I'm not eating "real" food yet. It's soft stuff like pudding and broth. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

What is PPL? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Which one do you guys prefer? Or any other ones I should know about? I need to start adding them to my Protein shakes because I haven't gone since my surgery on Monday. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had my surgery 9/19. This past Monday. I'm craving coffee or tea!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It's my 3rd day after surgery. I had it Monday 9/19. I can hardly finish one shake everyday and my dietitian wants 3-4 to be drank a day. (Also I'm a little drowsy writing this, excuse any grammar mistakes) Is this normal or do I just need to force it down? Thank you Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you all! Getting better at it Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I would take a warm blanket and socks. I also brought an extra change of underwear to change into. But I wore the same clothes the whole time. I was too out of it to brush my teeth or anything. Or wear a bra. Big baggy shirts are your friend. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm right there with you. This is my third day. My surgery was Monday. I feel pretty bad I'm wondering when it gets better. I can't tell if I'm hungry or not hungry. Or thirsty or not. It's all just confusing right now. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
