Tim C replied to Tim C's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I guess that is OK? -
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.

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!

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.

Heavy weights/ powerlifting post VSG
Tim C replied to healthy_steph's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
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. -
Day 4 PO. No Pain, No Hunger. Abdomen seems swollen.
Tim C posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
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. -

Tim C replied to Tim C's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
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. -

Tim C replied to Tim C's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
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. -
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$@!:
Tim C replied to Hopefulin2021's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
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...
Tim C replied to XtinaDoesIt's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
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!
