There are some really smart people on this forum. I cannot say anything better than it has already been said. Only regret, I didn't get here sooner. Go for it. You will NOT regret it!
Hey big guy, I had gall bladder surgery done laproscopically about 15 years ago. Those scars are completely gone. I had a hysterectomy with an incision about 6 inches long done about 12 years ago...
we have all tried it all~~that's why we are here

I am doing all those same things. Sadly for me, I also have inherited thinning hair. I already had male pattern baldness before surgery and now it is even thinner. However, I stooped to using the...

Carmen, prayers for peace and guidance are being lifted for you.
I order what I want and ask for 3 small to-go boxes when it is brought to the table. I divide the meal into fourths and put it into the boxes immediately. The waitress gives me funny looks, but it...
I heard that the pre-op diet is different based on your surgeon, your pre-op weight, your co-morbidities. There are a lost of factors that are taken into account.
I had surgery exactly 2 weeks after I met with my surgeon and then 3 weeks recovery before I felt good enough to travel. I did not meet with a nutritionist until after surgery. I will say I have...
I think you handled the situation very well. Continue on, girl. You've got this. It will only get easier!!!
I noticed you don't list your weight on a ticker. I have one because it causes me to be honest and tell someone whether my weight is going down, up, or staying the same. It forces me to be...
Congrats on reaching your goal. I hope you find someone that can answer your question.
Domi, thanks for sharing your experience. That's what this site is for. Everyone has a different experience with surgery. Please don't feel "stupid" because you had no idea how this was all going...
This is a life changing experience! My first visit to my Primary Care Physician after surgery resulted in my leaving diabetes and blood pressure meds behind FOREVER!!!!! If you have any support at...
Your friend obviously has problems you never noticed before. I guarantee she has not changed, you are just noticing it. Tell her she hurt your feelings. If she doesn't apologize for her actions,...
I was always the one roasting when everyone else was freezing. Who knew my thermostat was attached to my stomach. I am cold all the time!!!!
Count me in! I have been lax on exercise. Time to start walking!!!
My nutritionist explained the amount of food you take in and why it changes. There is a huge amount of swelling from the surgery and staples. The opening in your sleeve is about the size of your...
I told people at work and my family. I have not told facebook. My friends and family have commented on pictures posted that show my weight loss but no one has said "weight loss surgery" on...
If he likes tea, I suggest decaf tea. It is all I drink now. Perfectly legal for sleeve patients. Praying you find answers soon!
Expressing your feelings is exactly what you need to do on this forum! You have to be real somewhere and you don't want to share those feelings with friends and family who may say "told you so". ...
