Good luck!!! I didn't know they could go directly from RNY to Sadi! >>>Heading down the rabbit hole to read now!! Congrats on eliminating sources of temptation and working to take the weight off again. It's so hard--especially at our age!

I want to know all about the Crunchy Chili Oil!!!!! And the corned beef patty!

Yes. I used it. But ask your doc to be sure. I went to Amazon and ordered the Gas X strips. Helped a lot! Congrats on your surgery. But agree with @Ividacovich that sipping and walking is the best remedy of all!!

No. That would be highly inappropriate and no doctor would risk their license to willfully disobey standard of care (in the states anyway). It's too hard to get to be a bariatric surgeon.

Well damn! Maybe I'll try 'em and see how it goes today!!

Love shirataki in soups like this!!! So so so good! I was gonna have a salad for lunch, now I want Faux Pho with noodles!!! Maybe tomorrow. For some odd reason, when I eat shirataki noodles I am up a couple pounds the next day. I wonder if they glom onto a ton or water in your bowels? I know glucomannan is super hydroscopic.

I think I was about the same Rick. I started with baby spinach and baby power greens and things like english cucumbers (seedless), avo, tomatoes, purple onion and even red bell pepper. No issues.

Back at you pretty lady! You've been missed!!!

^^^^I couldn't love this post more if I tried!!

Thank you @James Marusek!!! I sparkle heart you and your great info! (Where ya been? You are missed!)

Cool!! Did they get crispy? Or more chewy?

Love me some fresh pork skins!!! They are the bomb dot com with queso and salsa BTW. And guacamole!!

YUM!!!

Did you call your surgeon? You will need to get to the OB pretty quickly to evaluate everything! Good luck hon. Let us know what happens!!

Awww ty! Can I keep you? I think it's my magic black turtleneck that I scored on Old Navy! It's a fitted medium almost too small in the shoulders! But I kept it cuz my scrawny turkey neck is still too small in it. Can you say Bobblehead? Course you can! But I also got a pair of the ON Super Skinny black jeggings in size 8 and guess what? I gotta return 'em cuz I think they are too big. Woot!!! So maybe I am still re-apportioning? I weigh 131.6lbs this morning. I think it's probably just optical delusion!

I channeled you yesterday! Did you feel it? The "boys" are in their chair and starting to get very excited about Christmas. Sorry I cut them out of the photo bomb opp!

My defense on no mineral oil would be that she's newly post surgical and barely able to get liquids down. So if it upset her stomach (especially being RNY = low oil) and she got into an emergency situation with vomiting or it backing up in her esophagus, it could be disasterous. Also what @MsBrown76 said...it's super hard to get down and keep down. I still remember the castor oil/grape juice debacle as a 5 year old. To this day I can not drink grape juice. I'd be more tempted to do glycerine suppositories mixed with MOM unflavored. But you also have to have a LOT of fluid to make the MOM work. So it's tricky and worse...what if she does have a complete impaction, perferation, or twist? Then what? You've just delivered serious osmolytics with no way to move down and out. That would result in a bowel burst. So it's not so simple and lay person solvable. This is a doctor situation for sure. I can just tell you, it's going to be Rosemary's Baby Terrible, the longer the constipation continues.

Was the wrapper a tofu wrapper?

Jaseeeeee! I love the last outfit. You look adorable in it. It's totally you!!! So much dang cute personality and beauty/glam! I can't believe your transformation!!!! You must FEEL so much healthier, right? You were beautiful and put together then and looked like a ball of fire (so much fun), but I know how I felt at my heaviest and how I feel now. It's night and day. WTG lady! Such an inspiration!!

Monday night football...

Oh wow! So who doesn't like a VERY thorough poop! So I'd vote it a win-win all around. You got to eat 16 baby cookies, poop like a champ, and were only mildly disturbed by it. Unlike writhing and sweating. And the other news is we know you will take the fluid right back off and be back to having to work hard to keep from losing!! Go girl!!

You have poo and water and gas mixed up in there cuz of a partial "asleep" part in your colon that acts as a partial obstruction. The question is why some of your bowel is decompressed. And what's the most gentle way to try to get things moving. And you have fluid around your lung. So make sure you are deep breathing and moving!!! And doing your spirometer. Dunno. But some one with medical training will hopefully be in to help you make sense of that. ((hugs)) And bless your heart. I know it's uncomfy / painful as hell!!

Dayum! Did they say they saw a crapton of stool in your images?

Does your doc know it's been 12 days? I'd guess you are major constipated, the question is what to do about it!!!

Congrats!
