Well if youre bypass just feel lucky cause some of us are capped at 2 oz. you are losing weight and pain free thats good. If you had a sleeve im not sure that you would feel the restriction as much because its like comparing your banana to my golfball when banana would be better compared w banana. Congrats on lb loss

Yeah but in this day and age a quick email especially with telehealth might be a good idea. Though i love this threead for all the suggestions and am currently about to try to go choke down another shake myself lol i think the best thing is to try to get all the grams from real food but i did not do that today so nast shake it is

Miralax one spoonful in your flavored water each day

oh also maybe see about a script for something called zofran for the initial days with your inflammation it may help

i do not have band but i saw an episode of fat doctor where a person got the band and the surgeon handed her a cup of water and if she couldn't keep it down he took some fill out. I hope you get to feeling better!

Hi . I use a really nasty multivitamin that only has to be taken once a day and it is what my program requires it is bariatric advantage ultrasolo. I also use really yummy calcium chews 500 from bariatric advantage. Strawberry flavor is greattt caramel second fave. I have 3 of those a day.

Well maybe not as clear as you thought if you arent getting the responses you desire lol. Everyone is human and im sure they are trying to help with their responses. Look i went off the board for my early protein i ate some over easy egg yolks. It was kinda liquidy so i went with it and it was my own idea. Just dont eat the thicker goo around the yolk that might be consider soft. there is protein in each yolk. also i discovered not only do i hate the smell but container the drink is sitting in so straws are helping me. most that hate the protein shakes switch to real meat asap. 3ounce of meat is 21 g protein in general. If you can get that in 3x a day youd be fine without protein powder at all (if your protein goal is 60g like mine). other foods have protein like that fairlife milk. ofcourse you can get this approve w surgeon like the rest of us

These tips about putting waiting between bites and gulps is true for me. i actually set spoon down for awhile in between or there can be pain and suffering. In the very beginning when i couldnt force myself to drink nasty protein shakes i ate over easy eggs. Just the yokes they have protein. But eventually did the plug the nose and drink thing lol. Right now im in soft foods.

Not really but i lost a ton the first month which i am currently in and the surgeon said she is very pleased! If you are doing bypass say goodbye to big portions in preop 🦄 the surgery really does detour .. cant speak for sleeve

When i went to get my masters i considered it because it seemed like such a chill job lol

Thanks cat ! 🐆

I felt fine during preop i had some food funerals that were delicious 😋

Hi no biggie hope it helps. This one fits the soft chews its working good for me so far

I do not but try putting feeding tube on sleeve in title might stand out more

cat the librarian 👩🏼‍💼 i guess catwoman is from a story

I recommend food funerals preop because it may be awhile before you eat those really devish foods again also the portion would b smaller (if bypass). With bypass it feels like my eyes are bigger than my stomach so you may order something but only b able to eat two bites 🥴

I have similar but i have a complication called persistent ileus. Not on tube just eating what i can

Try different mixers to make it smoother like diet juices and fairlife milk

I wonder if thats the surgery or the tube. I feel similar but no tube. When do you get to come off the tube? Hope you are feeling better today

Forgot to mention you can place pillow on tummy for standing might help

Time of course. Heating pad or ice pack whichever surgeon recommends. Just hope you get to feeling better. If its muscle pain maybe get script of flexiril if its incision pain you can get a script for topical lidocain (make sure surgeon okays) just gotta push through

Hey im really sorry to here about that what do they plan to do to fix it? Is your weight loss journey still on

Nope u going to need some help incisions etc i dont have any children right now but i did awhile ago lol. Look those incisions for most of us it was painful to go from sit to stand to give u an idea. You are told a max weight u can lift but in my opinion have family /friends come for like 2-4 weeks. Better still one that also cooks lol

Theres no guarantee lol especially if bypass but the bypass is working so im trying not to complain too much 🥴

Hi! That pic of the two ounce had puree chicken salad in one and puree chicken alfredo in another. I am on soft solid phase now and Use my 2 oz ..They are spinach alfredo sauce and cheese soup. So good to be out of puree lol
