I'm 2 months out and at home I only do have a cup per meal. Maybe a tad more. If I'm working then I just eat something like a couple tacos, one and a half chicken strips or a grilled chicken sandwich with no bun. Then a few potato wedges or fries Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

I was told it's very important because it helps your kidneys get rid of the waste created when losing weight and I would end up on dialysis if I didnt start drinking more than 32 oz a day Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

How much does Sleeve surgery cost with no Ins ?
k.love replied to texasnewf's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My ins was billed $68k but I'm sure self pay would be way cheaper. I've had 2 friends go to mexico for about $6500 total and neither of them regret it. Do your research and you'll find something that fits your budget Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app -

Is one week off work enough?
k.love replied to Samantha1324's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Most things didn't bother me but doing too much of something can cause discomfort. Even moving around too much. Such as showering or trying on a few clothes while getting dressed. Nothing 10 or 15 min of rest didn't take care of Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Tell me about your immediate post-op recovery!
k.love replied to BelleOfBatonRouge's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery was same day as yours. I lost 20 lbs pre op and 5 lb then first week. I had zero issues and zero pain from the surgery. I couldn't tolerate jello afterwards but was up and walking 4 hours after surgery. I asked my surgeon if he actually did the surgery or if he just cut me a few times and added a few stitches.

Is it possible to get enough water when you work in the heat? I work outside and have coworkers fall ill regularly due to dehydration and I worry that I won't be able to drink enough with a smaller stomach Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

Anyone smoke their foods after surgery? Was wondering how your body reacted to smoked food like pork, Turkey and chicken. Baked and boiled just doesn't sound good to me Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app
