Food Before and After Photos

The base is Acai, banana, and almond milk. On top is granola, hemp/chia/flax seed mix, peanut butter, strawberries, and blueberries. Measured and logged everything, roughly 260 calories and 33 carbs. Hard to limit the carbs when it comes to fruit. That would probably be about 3 meals for me though. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -

I was fortunate enough to go through the first two month post op without much problems but as I approach month three, I'm starting to fall victim to the notorious bowel problems everyone talks about. I think it may have to do with my diet being a little less consistent due to the holidays and not being home. I'm experiencing horrible cramping and discomfort...and even some bleeding. Hmph. I bought some Colace to help. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Lol! It is actually still sitting in my fridge. I made it and then was hit with a wave of stomach pain. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -

Anyone else getting these weird back-handed compliments? Work started back up for me today and I got a lot of "Oh, you're wasting away/too skinny/ etc. comments. Which are all bs anyways because I'm still technically "obese" according to my bmi. Why are people so rude? How do you guys respond to comments like these? #rantingaway Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Did you have to share a room in the hospital?

Hospital I stayed at had private room. Maybe you'll get lucky and no one will share the room with you? Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Everything tastes furry - 9 days post op

It has to do with being in ketosis. It will pass after awhile. Make sure you're staying hydrated! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -

It's great to do exercises with ankle weights! Sometimes the resistance from your own legs isnt enough. I use them while exercising with my personal trainer all the time. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Advanced skin corrector creams! What are you using to help out your skin?

I use BioOil. Expensive but seems to work well. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Because at the end of the day, most of us want more than a cat and I'm not talking to two cats or a dog. [emoji14] A lot of people do not respond on dating websites after liking someone because the message you have sent is not original. If a women is recieving a lot messages, a lot if the time she will only respond to the ones that are the most interesting, not the generic "Hi. How are you?" Dont let the the process get you down! I firmly believe the right person is out there for everyone. Theres a whole lot of people in this world and it ridiculous to think there is no one out there that vibes with you! I wish you the best!

When did you really start to see results?
Oct517 replied to Bypassgirl92's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
After about a month, you'll start to see the weight loss usually. Take photos to do comparisons! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Any Other Sleevers who did NOT have to do liquid diet before?
Oct517 replied to fun_freckles's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
They should have had you do a barium swallow and taken scans (x-rays) where they can see everything. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -

Oct517 replied to fun_freckles's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I did not do a liquid diet before my surgery. Only a 24 hour fasting period beforehand. Surgery went well and progress has been going smoothly. Trust your surgeon! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -
I started my journey FINALLY!

Congrats to starting your journey! Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Yeah, I dont actually respond to the people. I just smile. Not about to cause problems in the office over nothing. I'm more focused on how the comments effect me and how I feel about others. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Yeah, I got the same bs from my family for awhile. Two days after surgery my sister goes "It doesn't seem like the surgery is working for you." Naturally I respond "Its only been two days, you dipshit." At the end of the day rude comments from family bother me less than those from aquiantances.

Sadly, I agree that all of the negative or off comments I have received have come from other women. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app
