JennaG0902 8 Posted April 2, 2013 They told us we could have it from Wendy's...I pureed it and was only able to eat 2ounces before I was full but it was a nice change of pace! Today was the 1st day I could have that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JennaG0902 8 Posted April 2, 2013 DmHellow, where are you from? How are you feeling since your surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmhellow 4 Posted April 2, 2013 DmHellow' date=' where are you from? How are you feeling since your surgery?[/quote'] I am from Macomb, not feeling to bad still sore. I had a band that slipped so they removed it and did a sleeve. So surgery went a little longer because they had to take down adhesions. But really not feeling to bad. Who did your surgery? Dr. Hawasli did mine at St. John's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JennaG0902 8 Posted April 2, 2013 Dr.Zeni out of St.Mary's. A few people I know have gone through him and highly recommend him. I have nothing bad to say about him or his staff they've been amazing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ylopez 10 Posted April 2, 2013 Jenna, yum I love Wendy's chili but I have to ask if I can have that cause it has meat in it. My Nutritionist says to stay away from meat for at least 4 months after surgery. Vsgmommy, glad to hear someone else can get down 8oz as well. I was worried I'm able to take in too much. Yes I have noticed my clothes starting to feel bigger. I wore one of my favorite blouses yesterday n it was long cause my tummy has gone down. Has anyone gone back to work yet?

JennaG0902 8 Posted April 2, 2013 It's crazy to me that every dr has different rules but Iguess they know what's best for us lol. I weighed myself today, I'm down 32lbs. I've been doing it every few days but think I'm going to start weighing only once a week. I'm so excited for all of us! 1 dmhellow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
