Don't deny yourelf of these cravings. Denying yourself before surgery didn't work and doing it after surgery won't either. Concentrate on your protein, and as long as you are getting enough of it,...

Just google "5 day pouch test". It helps you reset and get back on track.
I don't know how long ago you had your gallbladder taken out but if it wasen't too long ago, get your copay back. When doctors perform a procedure they are paid a global fee. This means that the...
I used one of thoe beverage mixers (the long one that you put right in the glass to blend) to blend up my cream soups instead of having to strain them. I wouldn't go out and buy one but if you have...
Not to worry Jason, I went through the same thing. It is amazing how differently you will feel in just a few days. Hag in there, it gets better.
I just used a small rectangle shaped throw pillow I already had for the couch. It really helped.
Have a great time!
Update: I am now 7 days out and just reread my post. Boy did it make me laugh!!! No way I could have gone without the pain meds for the first 2 days. By the time I got home, only took Tylenol,...
Just looked online. They said that outside food exceptions are mde for those with special diet needs. They said to contact guest relations at the front gate. Bring your food with you and any...
Good for you! Keep up the good work.
I agree, is there any way to remove your own thread?
Don't consider this surgery major just because it is done laproscopically? We had 85% of our stomach removed. No matter what kind of incision is used to do it, it sounds pretty major to me. I...
I'm glad you had such a great experience grammargirl. My concern was not for the medical care you receive, I have on doubt the Doctors in Mexico are trained just as well as American doctors. It was...
Buzz, you are not the only one. I am only 5 days out but for the first 3 I would have told anyone that will listen not to do this. I was so "out of it" from anesthesia for 3 days. I absolutly...
OK, now I understand. See I knew that there had to be something I was not aware of. I assumed that most insurance companies were finally on track with covering this kind of surgery. I should have...
Honestly, this is just a question I am asking out of curiousity, and possibly some ignorance. Why does anyone have surgery in Mexico. I am not asking because I don't think it is safe, from...
Thanks everyone. I picked up 2 bottles at GNC to hold me over until I get my order. They don't sell the Isopure plus but I guess the reg Isopure will be fine for now.
Thanks Michelle, I am an office manager for a Family Doctor and you just made me smile :) PCP's are so underrated, it makes me happy to hear someone say this!
I have been using Bariatric Advantage protein powder. Def not the protein poowder kind of person but had no problaems with these so they must be pretty good compaired to others (I did have to stop...
From what I have read, not getting enough protein, water, and vitamins will do this. They are very important to keep up with.
You've lost just about a pound a day. Sounds terrific to me!
My doctors office has a group of nutritionists that we have unlimited access to for 5 years, at no charge (you pay a $250 program fee before your surgery). Does your have anything similar? If not,...
Can anyone tell me where I can find Isopure Plus? I've already ordered it online but wanted to pick some up while waiting.
So, I had my surgery on Friday. I went through the normal "what the hell was I thinking" on Saturday and was releived to feel better today. I would like to hear from people who did not have such an...
Thanks everyone, one less thing to worry about!
