Good luck all! It’s over before you know it and by about day 3 or 4 the gas pain subsided and you turn a bit of a corner. You’ll likely not even be hungry but Follow the team’s instructions and you’ll be fine. You’ll be amazed at the journey once you get settled in Enjoy!

Try Some avocado or small amount of low fat mayo? Soaking in broth works too

Wait the 3 days- just my opinion. Your stomach will thank you. When you get to that stage it’s difficult as is so don’t rush it

ER trip to rule out blood clot
BostonWLKC replied to Born in Missouri's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Glad you’re ok. I had some pretty intense leg pain at night maybe 4 months out. I chalked it up to dehydration.... went away about a week later. -

Introduction from a newbie
BostonWLKC replied to Gingertastic's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Try- Hot water! (Like decaf teas). I could drink cold water for the same reason. Have you tried to water down your shakes so they’re not so sweet? Come here often- post and respond to others. It helps the isolated feeling. Get out of the house too Hang in there 😊 -
Plus... just think of the awesome tax break on clothing donations this year ! 😂

It’s therapy to donate it all....-a beautiful right of passage. I felt amazing each time I let more go. Never going back there.... felt great to not keep multiple sizes for the different phases of “me” 😊

Telling the Family
BostonWLKC replied to KatallacStrong's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think Id have more of a panic by telling hem and worrying about , getting irritated with the opinions and conversations that would take place- and perhaps judgement . I chose to not tell anyone but my husband and I’m glad I made that choice You do you- good luck tonight! -
Happy Birthday!
