naturally_bad77 26 Posted April 27, 2013 My nurse tried to make me eat too. I had surgery Monday. I took 1 ounce of chicken broth it was nasty and had grains in it. I ate one cube of Jello and drank my Water. Today is Friday and I have gotten up to 4 ounces of chicken broth. 20 0z of water and the sugar free popsicles are the bomb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs_Ashley 35 Posted April 27, 2013 I had my surgery on the 23rd. Everything went well I pretty much had no pain. I was giving anti nausea meds before surgery so I haven't had to deal with that. Today is my second day home and the only pain I have is from the gas. I been walking and resting. I have been trying to get in all my fluids, it's not that it's hard I just don't want it. I haven't tried Jello yet but I have some ginger tea and it's the best. Oh and I do have a band I've been wearing and it helps a lot keeps everything tight.

birdie1 7 Posted April 27, 2013 Thanks for letting me know that maybe I'm getting too much Protein and not enough activity. I mix I scoop of unjury chocolate and 11/2 c of Water. I also add PB2 1 ltablespoon . I mix in a cup that has a steel ball in it to mix it well. I also ate one of those cups of instant ramen. I also ate sugar free pudding. I had my surgery April 18 and weight day of surgery 186.. Today 179. It seems like everything goes right through me(diarrhea ). I feel full but not to the point of throwing up. Today I hate 1000 calories which is a lot. I think I'm bored sitting at home. Hope I'm not in trouble or doing the wrong thing. I am open advise and suggestions. I did go for 30 minute walk. Thanks everyone!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rootie3 29 Posted April 27, 2013 Where did you get the band? I thought that would be a good idea. I also signed up to sell "it works". I know people who use it and I've read online that it helps after weight loss surgery. I just signed up to sell so I get a discount when I purchase. If anyone else is interested I could sign you up!

opal_m 38 Posted April 27, 2013 My goodness the story is familiar . I too have deleted myself from history. I always snap pictures of my husband and children but NEVER of myself . I have been shamed for a long time of my appearance. I am looking forward to my surgery. I want to feel better and live healthier. 3 kckitty, Cindy.mcg and Mrs_Ashley reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SassySenior 111 Posted April 27, 2013 I was intrigued by your mention of It Works body wrap. So, I did a search for reviews. The best place to look is Amazon.com. Type this is the search box: It Works! Body Wraps. (1) Ultimate Body Applicators (Health and Beauty) The reviews were eye opening, everything from 5 stars to 1 star. What was interesting is that 93 people gave it 1 star, but only 49 people gave it 5 stars. The discussion is very interesting, so I recommend reading the comments to get a good feel for it. Some buyers got no results, others got fantastic results. So, I'd probably try it after some more research. How much does it cost if you become a distributor? And do tell us your results, rootie3. Promise? 1 SqueakyWheel&Ethyl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajeeprider 94 Posted April 27, 2013 I am 3 days post op. My abdomen is still swollen and hurts when I move. I only have nausea when I move too much or don't take my pain meds. But I have one area near one of my incisions that burns when I move. It is getting better each day...but there is no way I could go back to work in less than 2 weeks!

SqueakyWheel&Ethyl 160 Posted April 27, 2013 In a few days you'll feel a lot better and more energetic, but pace yourself. Don't overdo it or you'll be in bed all day the next day. 1 kckitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
