Well after a beautiful 2 years and 7 months relationship with my band I had to get the fluid removed for medical reasons. I am being told to eat enough to prepare my body for what is to come.. I am worried about putting the weight back on. I am seriously considering ‘ a Keto diet’. Any advise. xx

Most surgeons put some fluid in the band at surgery. You’ll know at you first fill.

We women are most time supportive to our husbands/ partners regarding WLS but they can never return the favour. Is it because the feel insecure that we are looking better and feeling happier with ourselves? -
Cold water makes the discomfort worst

Try drinking warm water or some tea.

My best luck in maintaining hydration was warm or hot fluids. Cold fluids causes constriction and more pain. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I think if we stick to PVC = eating in the order of Protein, Vegetables then Carbohydrates we will see some improvement. I tend to go the opposite way at times. Thus consuming a lot of the wrong foods. -
