I would love to hear from some folks about your weight loss after surgery the first 60 or 90 days after your sleeve surgery. I need inspiration. I am on this liquid diet and surgery in 6 days!

Add Miralax to your morning drink or shake, I also take stool softeners and have been reasonably regular

No but I hve tried the 40G Body Fortress and it is awesome!

Yes I will always need a multi and any thing else i my be deficient in moving forward. i am trying to find out what multi people on here are taking. Thanks

I feel like the sleeve gives me my best chance to eat "normally". I hope this keeps working like it is now, I am very happy with the sleeve. I believe having the lapband before has helped. I eat slow and can tell when I am getting full. I don't want to over do it!

Congrats on your weight loss, 28#'s in 4 weeks is incredible. I have lost almost 40 lbs since 1/25 when I got the call about scheduling surgery on 1/25. I have lost 23 lbs since surgery on 2/23. I hve been able to drink fluids pretty much normally since surgery. I too can eat almost a cup of food with out pushing it or getting sick feeling. I am eating about 1000 cals a day.

Thanks...I took alot of vitamins pre op. I think I am going to add some back in.

Flintstones makes a Bariatric Multi?

6-10 times a day LOL

Thanks for the info...I will check this out.

Good info.Thanks....Did you try a capsule or pill?

Why this one J?

How long before you were able to kick BP Meds to the curb? I have been on them about 10 years and have had some really low readings at times since surgery. I also suspect they create a little weight gain. Looking forward to being off these in the near future!

That is the best deal. Are you taking anything else? I want to hear from others

Hey Chiquita...I had surgery the same day. I have lost 22 pounds so about the same. I had two 5 day stalls in the first month. I m confident this will be successful as long as we stick to plan.

I too had this problem. Blend with ice in a bullet and just drink half at a time. It makes it easier.

I would do this when I had the band too. I hated that damn band!! I would sneeze when full. Anyone else experience this or have another trigger?

How many calories are you guys getting in a day on average? I am only one week post op and have a Zoom call with Doctors office today and do not remember hearing a number from surgery to regular diet. Let me hears from you on you caloric story after surgery. Thanks

I've had 2 stalls in 27 days, about 5 days each time. This is a marathon and a way of life once you get to your normal diet phase. I am in semi normal which is pretty good. Once you start eating again it doesn't take much to make you full!

I got the call on Jan 25th that I was scheduled for surgery on 2/23. I was postponed from the original date of 12/16 becuse of Covid spike. I have lost 34 lbs since 1/25 about half before surgery and half since.This is my second stall in less than 4 weeks. The first lasted 4-5 days. I am on day 5 of the second stall. I am around 1000 calories a day, getting all my liquid and Protein. Hopefully this won't last much longer and the scales will start moving again....very frustrating.

Thanks! Dude...You sound like you have spent some time in the U.S. Your english sounds American!

That is crazy! I am not sure I will lose 110 lbs but if I do somebody better notice!

Congrats on your weight loss! We will see what happens. I suspect from what I have read it will be similar to what you are saying.

You are probably correct!
