I am 14 days out from surgery. I had some issues right after the operation and had to remain in hospital 3 extra days. I'm home now and doing better, but it is still a challenge to get all the required liquids in. I've had to return to the hospital for

I am 64 years old and in the pre-surgery phase for gastric by-pass. In 2011 I had a lap band put in and had it for almost a year. I struggled to lose weight with it - over the course of the year I had it, I lost a total of 40 lbs and much of that was
