I was told not to have caffeine. I had to stop it before surgery and was told only to do decaf for at least 6 months. I have just stayed away from the decaf and caf all together. I drink just water,...
Welcome. Everyone is great on this site and very helpful when you have questions. Any questions just ask. Good luck on your luck and the journey ahead of you. Just remember when times get tough why...
I had to pay my deductibles and everything before surgery. They explained all the costs involved when I went for my consultation with the doctor. Now they owe me $750 back because insurance paid more...
I did this for 3 weeks also. Then all of a sudden I started losing. I had to switch to 800 calories which took a little while. But I promise you are losing inches just not the pounds yet. This is...
Welcome. Anytime you need to talk let me know.
I would have to check with the doctor who performed the surgery and see what they said. I know I have to follow up with mine for 5 years.
I started forgetting to take my vitamin. I have trouble remembering to take this everyday for some reason. All my blood work comes back fine. So why is that we really need this vitamin? Also, I...
I had it very badly for several weeks. I had to get the doctor to give me something. I took Zofran during the day and Phenergan at night. But I also had trouble taking the Calcium Citrate. I still...
I had the sleeve done October 16, 2013. I had several chronic illnesses and took a lot of medications. Now I am able to walk 3 miles a day, play outside with the dogs, and go do things with my family...
I was feeling the same way. My doctor and Nut both told me the same thing that I had to look at the inches and other things such as how was my clothes fitting and other things. I am only allowed on...
great job. So proud of you.
I have only lost 33 lbs. in 5 weeks which 20 was pre-op diet and the rest 2 weeks afterwards. I have not lost anymore since I went to the dr. 10/31 and I am very frustrated also. They told me to eat...
sending you prayers. Keep us posted.
Try drinking the Premier Chocolate shake. It has 30 grams of protein. I was drinking these the day after surgery just fine. They have them in vanilla too but they were to sweet tasting. You can buy...
I mix my Unjury unflavored in with my crystal light fruit punch and it is fine. The nutritionist even recommended and approved it. They do not want you having over 4 oz of fruit juices for some...
Good job.
I have lost 33 lbs since surgery on 10/16. This includes doing the pre-op diet and then surgery. They said you would hit places like this but it is important to stay in touch with your nutritionist...
I am trying several brands of protein. I have tried Unjury which I really like. How do you get the powder to mix up so that it is not clumping. I tried stirring it and shaking it. Still major clumps...
I got the sample pack and it is amazing.... I have surgery in 3 weeks.
Question, I am trying some of the protein items before surgery to see which ones I like. I am currently trying Unjury. How do you make it to where it is not in clumps? I have tried shaking and...
where would you find evaporated cane juice?
That is one of my weaknesses. I love sweet tea especially being from the south.
I have now decided I want to do the sleeve. Now how do you get prepared before hand to get ready for surgery and afterwards? Any tips, suggestions, etc would be greatly appreciated. I am set for...
Thanks for posts. I have read a lot of information about the band and have decided against it. I am going with the sleeve. Now how do you get your mind set to do this. I know this is what I want to...
