November 8th down 54 lbs since pre op diet which started 10/28 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My large incision is bleeding. I had the stitches removed after 2 weeks and ever since it's been bleeding. I went back to my surgeon on Saturday and he said it's fine, not infected so he put stern strips on it and sent me on my way. Well, it's still bleeding - is this normal?

My birthday was the day before Thanksgiving so I had a celebratory cupcake. Then the next day on Thanksgiving I had some masked potatoes, little gravy, butternut squash and then later on I did have a brownie and small piece of pumpkin pie...I felt fine but I did feel guilty, especially when I got on scale this morning and I gained 1.5 lbs! I went to gym today but there are so many leftovers in my house...I'm being strong though but that's not to say I haven't been tempted- I wish I could eat like a normal person ...ugh Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I can relate- I'm 10 days out, still on liquid diet and I just got on the scale to see that I GAINED a half a pound! So discouraging! I can't believe it...feeling very defeated Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I drink with a straw- no issues so far and it helps me to not take to big of a sip. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had my sleeve on the 8th- the gas pains were terrible and I'm having a hard time getting all my Protein and fluids in. I've been dealing with bad cases of diarrhea (sorry if that's TMI).Incisions really don't bother me at all- I haven't taken any Vitamins yet Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
