I just asked my bariatric coordinator if I could take gummies because I tried the dissolvable tablets and the after taste was horrible! So I bought the pills from here and I gag every time I take them. I honestly have been very inconsistent and hope I can do gummies again. Btw she said I could take gummies but need to have iron as well

One glass of wine....
BeckyTx replied to Hopefulin2021's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I’ve watched so many you tube videos and that was a question. The doctor mentioned that the tolerance is very low so maybe a sip or 2 will do LOL my craving is not alcohol but sodas which I hardly drank before surgery 🤷🏻♀️ -

So I bought the barimelts dissolvable tablets and omg that awful after taste is so bad! I just can’t take them anymore. I just ordered regular capsules. -
Since that’s the incision where our stomach was taken out of , it’s more tender. But I’ve noticed the more walking I do the less soreness or pain I feel, although not completely gone.

Yeah my dr said decaf for now. I’m just too scared to try. Also, since coffee is a diuretic, it can cause dehydration so that’s my worry. We just gotta be careful.

That I know of yes, I have that on my plan along with yogurt. Today I’m 1 week post op and start full liquids.

Help!! Surgery in two days!! Advice needed
BeckyTx replied to Mark P3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don’t take a lot to the hospital , I was there Tuesday and Wednesday I was out. Just comfy slippers to walk around and lose fitting clothes. Walking was highly recommended to relieve gas pain. Sipping was also a big thing but I was very nauseous at first. Because of the IV fluids, I had to go pee like crazy LOL So make sure you don’t rush to go -
I "snuck" having WLS
BeckyTx replied to chiquitatummy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My family and 3 coworkers know. I don’t plan on telling everyone my business, but if asked, I will say I was doing keto LOL since they knew I did that before. My 6 & 9 year old don’t know, I just told them mommy was sick from her tummy but that’s it. They haven’t even noticed anything different since I still cook for them. My hubby is my #1 supporter , he has been so helpful in this process. -
Any March Surgeries?
BeckyTx replied to Hopefulin2021's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
March 16, I’m 1 week post op. Let me tell you, when I woke up after surgery I was like omg what did I do?! That pain was no joke! I had 2 c sections before and that pain does not compare LOL -
