I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and was weighed at the doctor’s office. I lost 36.6 lbs in the CB past 2 weeks. Yay 🎉

I hope you feel better soon. My doc recommended Mylicon (gas relief for infants) and it worked great. After week 1 I haven’t needed it. Maybe check w/your doctor if it is ok for you.

I had my gastric bypass on Nov. 2. Before surgery I purchased some “Better than Bullion “ to use as broth. I also got vegan protein powder and several juices, bariatric vitamins and miso soup. The surgery was much easier than I expected. My doctor performed robotic surgery. I was nervous before surgery but it was so easy. I’m in the liquid protein phase now. I make my own shakes since I cannot tolerate commercial protein drinks and I vegan. I purchased 200 1 oz cups with lids to portion out my drinks and easy to take when I go out.
