Just got home from my post-op. 10 days out and he said I'm doing great. I've been cleared to go to the gym! Up to 15lbs, but hey! That's so exciting to me. I am 20.2lbs down since November 26th, which I'm excited about. Still full liquid until January 1.

I'm doing well with the fluids but not so much with the shakes. They're thick. It's hard to get them down. Got any tricks?

Oh no. I'm so sorry. Hopefully the med change will help. My follow-up is tomorrow. I'm on full-liquid for 21 days post-op, so I will be liquid until January 1. I'm beginning to get creative!

My surgery was 12/10. I was hungry yesterday for the first time. My sister is 2 years post-op & has been super helpful. I had a slice of the Laughing Cow Babybel cheese and that did the trick. It's super soft and my surgeon approved it under my full liquid. For breakfast today I had cream of wheat but I made it with a vanilla Adkins Plus Protein shake instead of water/milk. I made it soupy and I was only able to eat about 3 tablespoons, but I've been full for over 2 hours now! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

The gas was terrible for me the first 3 days! I'm feeling fantastic now though! Good luck today. Please share how it goes! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

My mother bought me a spanx body suit Tuesday evening. I've been wearing it pretty much ever since. It has helped tremendously. Walking is easier with it on, and standing/sitting is easier too. This will all be worth it! My sister is 14mth post-op and has lost over 130lbs. I'm holding on to that! [emoji5] Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
