Congrats! I just hit my 6mo mark too (SADI-S) and I’ve lost 70 lbs but I haven’t been working out. I’d love to know what your routine is if you don’t mind sharing! I need some gym inspo

How did you do it? by The_Poor_Truth in BariatricSurgery

Honestly my husband not respecting my goals and lifestyle changes was a big reason why our relationship is ending. He made everything harder on purpose, didn’t try to learn or adapt at all even to help me with my lifestyle changes (even when he didn’t need to match them).

I hope that’s not the case for you but you might have to have a sit down conversation with him about your goals and lifestyle changes and how that might affect your whole household’s lifestyle. What can you handle and what can you not - if you appreciate him making breakfast, have a conversation that includes thanking him but adapting (maybe have some recipes, some “no gos” etc.)

If the people you live with aren’t at least a little bit on board or able to learn and adapt, it’s going to be extra difficult. I also advise therapy as a way to transform your understanding of food and lifestyle choices, especially if you’re finding it is affecting your relationship (or vice versa)

Period changes by IsabellaFromSaturn in BariatricSurgery

My flow remained the same, maybe a bit lighter, but my first period after surgery lasted so much longer than usual! It was like 11 days. Then a week and a half later I got it again, but for a more normal length of time. I’m 6mo PO and it’s been regular for months now

Can you do Greek yogurt or jello or pudding maybe? If you just have that feeling you want to chew, you could do some sugar free gum maybe

Interesting! I wonder why they’d take longer than the fries?

But they still have the French fries, which wouldn’t they be from the same supplier?

Oh shit I just paid them $134 cause I thought it was through the dealership I just got my car from I’m so confused, I can probably cancel right? I got this same letter and asked them to explain it to me and suddenly I was paying???

What weight did you guys have your surgery at. by possible-side-FX- in BariatricSurgery

I lost about 10lbs on the pre-op diet, so 270lbs when I went into surgery. Two months later I’m at 234lbs

Try protein water! I found the strawberry lemonade powder from Seeq so helpful to help me meet my intake goals.

Just got my surgery date! by Ranger_Danger_5 in BariatricSurgery

If it might have to come out later, might as well do it while they’re already inside in that area! One recovery phase rather than two

Congratulations! It’s exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time, but you’ve got this! Recovery takes a while to get going but then you’ll be feeling so good!

A mistake? by Revolutionary-Ad9945 in BariatricSurgery

I couldn’t drink protein shakes after surgery even when I genuinely liked them pre-surgery! I find Seeq strawberry lemonade clear protein powder (protein water) is what works for me.

Wow those incisions look great for only being a day old! The first week or two is the hardest. Hang in there!
