    Leaving dieting behind

    njgal replied to bellabloom's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

    Welcome back! Good to have you back. I was following your posts pre-surgery and have a new understanding and appreciation for them now that I’m post-op.

    No such thing as insignificant. If it gets you thinking, then it’s good!

    This is useful for me as well. Thanks!

    Every program is different. It was fine by mine but then again, I also am allowed to drink coffee 4-5 post-op. I’m over a week post-op now and have yet to want coffee though. Good luck.

    Absolutely... you can be the poster child for joining a gym. They may even give you a couple of free trainer sessions

    The restroom

    njgal replied to Sherry Rice's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    As long as it comes out though, eh? [emoji12] See how it goes tomorrow and might be good to invest in flushable wet wipes, the dry stuff will hurt sooner or later.

    What a great write-up. I mean, I’m only 1 week post-op but can totally see the value in all of these. Thank you!

    Today I realized I haven’t even thought about my knees in a couple of days. They don’t hurt anymore.[emoji171][emoji173]️[emoji172][emoji170]

  15. njgal

    Luuuuuuuuv eggs! Can’t wait to incorporate them again and hope desperately that I’ll tolerate them.

    Absolutely!! If changing your date guarantees your husband being there good. As someone who just went through it a week ago I can tell you my husband was a blessing to have at the hospital and when I finally made it home two days later. Good luck!!

    Low bp

    njgal replied to whoa12's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Naturally or due to surgery? I’ve always run in the 10-7 range. First couple of days post surgery it was 9-5 range. Now it’s back to normal (1 week post op). I did notice my resting HR went down from 70s to 50s though and that’s back up as well.
  21. njgal
    Nice progress, congratulations!!

    Have you tried looking at ThreadUp?

    Centrum here as well... surgeon’s recommendation actually (as long as it has 400 folate in it).
