I'm drinking water but not urinating??
jiminy_cricket posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my sleeve done on June 15, 2017 and even though the first 2 weeks were ruff, I'm slowly doing much better. I find myself drinking over 64oz a water each day and only using the bathroom maybe once or twice. Is the common? Should I call the doctor? Is this serious? -

It turns out I had a UTI and possibly a kidney stone. -
After Surgery Taste Issues

OMG YES!!!! Mines were exactly like yours, and still are. I was sleeved on June 15th and I can't even look at anything sweet without getting disgusted. It gets better with time though. -
Having the same problem. My doctor just called and told me come over to do labs because it's not normal.

I literally just read all of the comments and I'm calling my surgeon now. My urine is light yellow, which is good, but I'm still not understanding the water retention. Keep you guys posted. -

Every time I swallow, the fluid travels and hits my stomach causing it to cramp up. It's really painful. Any advice? -
Where's everyone from? How's your pre-op diet going? What's your surgery date?
jiminy_cricket posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm getting nervous! I'm from Philadelphia and my date is June 15th. My doctor put me on a 1,000 calorie a day diet for 2 weeks. I'm already 3 days in and I've lost 8 pounds. I am SO scared to cheat because to me this is a life or death situation, and I don't want to mess up. -
No Negative Comments! Did anyone cheat during Pre op
jiminy_cricket replied to Misha42000's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi everyone, I'm from Philadelphia and my Doctor put me on a 2 week 1,000 diet instead of a liquid diet. I was so confused when he told me this because everyone else does the liquid diet. -

What was your breaking point?
jiminy_cricket posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi everyone! So by breaking point, I mean what was the "thing" that made you say I'm doing this because I need to change my life. For me it was when I went to an amusement park and was kicked off a rollercoaster because I couldn't fit. It was really that most embarrassing moment of my life. -
Just the beginning

I totally understand where you are coming from. As long as you have your husband and daughter behind you that's all that matters. -

jiminy_cricket replied to BabyFat23's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi! I'm also from Philadelphia. I just received a date of June 15th and I start my liquid diet on June 2nd. I've only told my mom, spouse, and aunt, and the only one that's supportive is my aunt. I can empathize with you no having support. -
June sleeve buddies?
jiminy_cricket replied to JustJulie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
