2 week post op check up, all good Yay! Bring on puréed food! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm a little similar, just seen my surgeon. He said the left side hurts more and for longer. Try not to worry yourself to much, I'm sure your surgeon will put your mind as ease when you see them Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Snap! Sudocrem has worked a treat for me! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Try not to panic, everyone is different but I wasn't on liquids only as my pre-op diet. Just a week of eating small portions of healthy food. Like chicken/fish salad. Just do your best to stick to your instructions from here on out Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Its not I cant drink, I am choosing not to drink. I could barely handle one cocktail preop so I am choosing not to post op. HW 385 SW 359 CW 338 Sleeved 10/5/16 mocktails/ virgin cocktails ?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

What goes in must come out, and lots of us are just on liquids...That's how I'm trying to think of it Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Take some slippers and loose clothing, something comfy. Take something to read but more of a magazine than a book because the first couple of days the anaesthetic has you snoozing lots! The first day and night were rough for me, was waiting for my next lot of pain killers, the gas pain is really uncomfortable and kept feeling really sick! After that each day got better and better, keep moving, little and often! Even on liquids I don't feel low energy levels (sleeved 10/25) but I am always cold! I didn't find the abdomen was that painful, the incisions were more uncomfortable when trying to get comfy in bed, but a nice soft pillow helped! Best advice... There's light at the end of the tunnel... We're all on a journey, try and stay positive. Everyday were on step closer to out destination GOOD LUCK! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Refreshing to hear, I'm much the same. Sleeved 25/10, I know, stay off the scales... But that's easier said than done! I think I'm an early staller too! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

There's light at the end of the tunnel, you're on a journey, keep traveling! Sleeved on the 10/25 and starting to feel 'normal'. Hang in there! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

In regards to spotting, I have a contraceptive injection which stops periods and I've spotted every day since surgery 10/25... I think it's just hormones trying to work out what is going on! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Starting puréed next week, would love to hear some of your recipes (especially ones that help getting Protein in!) Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

25th October over here! Anybody having issues with their wounds? I have one that likes to leak a little! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you Kathy, only had my op on Tuesday, been walking to try and get rid of the gas, I'm constantly burping! I see my doctor in 10 days so will ask him then I'm feeling good thank you, hope you're well yourself! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

When you talk about Jello, do you have it in its firm set state? Worried to try this in liquid stage! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Had my surgery 25/10, sent home with 10 days of heparin and told to expect bruising, and nosebleeds. Nasty jabs! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
