  1. BufBills...I have a ways to go before any brown liquor ☺️. But I am sure there may be a time I will have a short glass ...Just not yet by friend! Life is too short!
  2. Thanks that was good info. There is a fine balance of which I was unaware.
  3. Thanks...Hard to believe it was dehydration even though I thought about it. I have exceeded water intake every day. That includes surgery day. I have been under for several surgeries and never had a mouth that dry when I woke up! Had to be dehydration that day.

    Pre-op diet & failure

    Mke dang sure you are clear liquids today all day and nothing on monday at all by mouth after midnight tonight... and no cheating! You can do this!!
  5. Wow! Honestly I would be good with just going once every few days. I suspect that may not be the case for me but I lern something knew on here wveryday. Thanks for the scoop on poop!
  6. Thanks, I will ask my doc about it. Strange thing is it started right after surgery. Yesterday/ day 5 post op, I had improved pressure. Nurse told me it take a while for all of those organs to wake up.
  7. Thanks! I will pick up some Smooth Move!
  8. We will be saving a lot of money on Toilet paper and groceries!
  9. Yes you pre ops pack it in your bag to take to the hospital, Great Stuff!!
  10. Something I learned pre op. I had no idea. I've had several surgerise and never had a mouth that dry!
  11. Thanks for giving me the low down on POOP! I would think that you cannot make stool without food.Just wanted to ckeck ...Thanks for your solid answer!

    Scared I'm recovering too fast...

    Good to hear. I've had no pain to speak of at this point. I feel like my Belly is still swollen or could be from gas but I don't feel anymore gas. I hope everything contiues this way ! No hunger, No Pain and no desire to eat. I am going to lose weight for sure!
  13. Thanks for responding. I believe the main thing I need to worry about is the areunder my belly button but we shall see. Do you know the difference in mini Tummy Tuck and Tummy Tuck? As much money as I am going to save on food and booze forever, I plan to do something!

    Heavy weights/ powerlifting post VSG

    My surgeon said to wait 5 weeks with anything above 10 pounds. I am looking forward to getting back in the gym. My wife asked to stop over a year ago. She said I was just getting bigger and not losing weight...which I was.
  15. My abdomen area seems swollen(Could be from trauma).I don't think I have anymore gas right now. I have no pain or desire to eat at this point. If this is as bad as it gets I am amazed! Did anyone else have swelling or bloating in the abdomen area? I haven't weighed yet but feel I am retaining water. Any advice is appreciated. I have follow up with my surgeon on Tuesday. Thanks for any input.
  16. Thanks for sharing. It is good to hear that this is unusual.
  17. Glad to hear this is somewhat common. No pint in weighing until my belly goes down. I am bound to have lost some weight with such few calories.
  18. Thanks for posting. It sounds like we have/had the same issues.
  19. I feel the same but I know by belly is swollen. I will ask the doc about it Tuesday. Sounds like it might not be uncommon.

    6 weeks po

    Just Just continue what your surgeon and team said to do. This will work but you may be looking at over a year to get to where you want to be. This is a tool, continue the appropriate diet and exercise and you will lose!

    This Pre-op diet is a b$@!:

    I had 7 day liquid with the last day being clear liquid. i think that is long enough but 2 weeks sounds like overkill but your surgeons decision.

    Scared I'm recovering too fast...

    I sort of feel the same way. I've had almost zero pain and having no issues with getting my water in.I am not hungry I am still on clear liquids. I will be going back to liquid in a couple of days which means protein shakes!!! This is going to work for me! Good luck to you!
