NerdyMHC 76 Posted December 15, 2012 I would talk to your doctor or a nurse about this with you being so early out. I was 6 weeks out when I had a cold and needed cold meds and I had no problem taking them then, but I am not sure what they suggest for only three weeks. I hope you find your answer! 1 Livinglifeout reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeaveItToSleever 80 Posted December 15, 2012 I don't see why not. I was taking a LOT stronger drugs than that in the first 3 days after surgery. A lot more, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

intoxicant 1 Posted December 15, 2012 Hi I was sleevd same day 11/26, similar weight how are you doing with weight loss so far? How the Nyquil sit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mom2mgaj 11 Posted December 15, 2012 Intoxicant: I didn't end up taking it. I'm ending week 3 and I haven't weighed myself since the first week. Friends and family are saying they already see a difference, but I don't. I don't own a scale and i am tempted to go out and buy one but I don't want to weigh myself daily. How are you doing?

intoxicant 1 Posted December 16, 2012 Oh great congrats on loss honey...My Dr. wanted me 2 start puree on day 22 so I am actually going 2 start tomorrow instead..super nervous and scared.. how has it been for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mom2mgaj 11 Posted December 16, 2012 It's a trial and error type of thing. I ate the riccotta bake... Which is a recipe that has been talked about a lot on this site.... It was good but came right back up. Think it was much to heavy still. I can eat egg salad. Thick Soup. Mashed potatoes. I still have a hard time with drinking. I'm so used to drinking all day at my speed that is hard to slow down. Pre Op: 298lb / Surgery Day: 288lb / Week 1: 278lbs / Week 2: 267.5lbs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
