I had my surgery in December and I’ve only lost 26 pounds. I feel like I should be losing more.

So it’s been a month since surgery. I’m down 20lbs. 🤗 but some days I poo a little and then I’ll poo a whole lot and get stomach pains. Then booty hole burns. I think it’s from acid or gas, idk. Anyone else have this??

Finally Got a date
Mrs.Braxton<3 replied to lili@ne's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I thought everyone did the liquid diet. My doctor has me on dairy, meat and nuts. I am scheduled for the 18th but I have my consultation tomorrow. Maybe a few days before it'll be just liquid too. -
I am so excited. I have my pre surgery consultation tomorrow. They needed to move it up from Monday to Friday so I'm good with that! Gave me a tentative surgery date of the 18th!!! I can't wait. So they asked me to start on the diet now that is supposed to shrink my liver. I see a lot of ppl talk about a liquids diet only before surgery but they asked me to eat only dairy, meat and nuts. I can't wait to see what they say tomorrow in my appointment. I'm so ready!!!

Well I'm okay with not taking the birth control pills because my husband is away on business a lot so I'm not too concerned lol but I was concerned about taking Excedrin for migraines. I think I will call though and ask the purpose of no pills. I'll let you know what they say.

I'm sorry, I don't know what those acronyms stand for LOL. I am doing the sleeve surgery. I feel a little uneducated about my surgery. I been waiting so long for the insurance to approve it that I been focusing on getting them what they want.

I didn't even think about not doing exercises that involve the abdomen. Thank you! I will for sure check with my Dr. I want to make sure I get started in the gym as soon as I can so I can build a routine and habit of going. -

That's true. Give me more time to get my diet in line. But to be honest, I kind of wanna eat all the sweets I want now before it really has to change. I gotta change my mentality.

I recently googled why you cant take pills before surgery and somehow came up on an article about pills after surgery and how they can punch a hole in your stomach. so now Im a little nervous for after because I get really bad migraines. I usually take Excedrin but I think that might be an issue after surgery.
-
I will be checking for sure. Thank you.

That is so great though. I am so happy for you. For a woman, feeling good in your clothes is an amazing feeling. Congrats! -
Are you allowed to take phentermine after surgery?

Ah. Thank you. I can't wait for my appt before the surgery so I will know more of what to expect. I'm kind of freaking out. I'm nervous and I want to do it NOW but I gotta wait til next month.
