Just a little harder only if you want to exercise... I'll probably do a few days here and there, but nothing crazy... Summer body goals

Bowel Obstructions and Chronic Constipation
GreenTealael replied to Jerrilyn's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
If you drink 1/4 to 1/3 the serving evening before it will produce a bowel movement the next morning. You don't have to drink a lot, just a little to stay regular. Experiment with the amounts. Pure Senna tea is also a little less harsh in it's effects I find, compared to Smooth Move, but your results may vary. -

Sleeve post op advised no supplements needed
GreenTealael replied to BrighterSide's topic in Food and Nutrition
Teams, even members within Teams, will have various views on this. My Team had differing views about when to start but the rationale was the same. Delay a bit until necessary. Regular lab work and self assessment usually will catch early signs of deficiencies. Some vitamins are water soluble so when the upper limit it reached you usually excrete the excess. The fat soluble ones are more dangerous. They literally stick around. No need to keep adding in vitamins you have proper levels of wasting $$$ or risk overdose/toxicity if preventable. CONGRATS 🎉 -

Hi Mystery! It's liberating. Who cares anymore if anything is left behind.. take it with you, give it to friends, less fortunate or bin it. If you are super duper worried, order less like appetizers. We are removing the focus from food. It's just a part of life now. Stick around, fill out your profile and join the party! Safe Journey 🎈 -
WOW that is a lot of work and travel, I'm not looking forward to it...

Crap. I forgot about that. Definitely going to need bras. I never had boobs until I got fat. I’m guessing they are going to disappear along with the fat. Oh well....worth it Forget about clothes then... Save for plastics 😓😢😥

You will most definitely have to get new underwear and bras...

WOW!!!! Big Big changes

Can I afford the post-op diet?
GreenTealael replied to sheslittletex's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I edited it to say Amazon and Walmart once I read you were in Hawaii (derp , speed reading), yes yogurt can replace a supplement. *Most* Teams prefer that you eventually work to get your protein macros from real foods instead of shakes when you can. -

Amazon and Walmart sells discounted priced multivitamins, Yogurt for protein vs protein shakes... -
Hi!!! I would suggest not buying a lot of stuff, just staples you love and are interchangeable in your wardrobe, think capsule closet, otherwise you risk lamenting the loss of clothing that you just bought or taking it to a tailor to have resized $$$$$$$$$$$$$ I very excitedly replaced my entire stock of clothing half way through my journey (necessary but short sighted - don't be like me) however I'm a tailor so I edit the best items. Once at goal, go crazy.
