i still put on clothes i liked from 80 pounds ago that i loved and look in the mirror and i look like i am wearing a mumu or some nice pajamas. i finally gave the "big girl' clothes away to charity...
hang in there! i had MAJOR head hunger and wanted to eat everything at first and obviously could not. but, in a few weeks it will go away. i now like watching cooking shows again to cook for my...
hey here! ukiah is such a beautiful place. i lived in lake county in the late 90's...the year there was a huge flood. anyway, i was banded and it was awful! just a pain to get the right setting, your...
bloody marys are are a drink and a meal...just be careful...they can hit you hard after 2-3
lettuce kills me, but a fresh veggie mix is great with olive oil and balsamic.
i am going with gallbladder. i had to have mine out 2 months after being sleeved. my doc told me it was "an unwanted gift of weightloss." get it out if that is the problem. i sure wasn't thrilled...
i am 35 and lived the live of an elderly person. heavy breathing up stairs, knee pain going downstairs. i am a teacher and i could not finish a lesson w/o almost collapsing. my cholesterol was 275, i...
you will heal and it does take some time. i can eat most things, but meat makes my tummy angry so i am basically a forced veggie. however tuna fish is fine. i also make salads w/o lettuce as that...
get it out. it is much easier than the sleeve to recover from. the pain with a stone is so bad! only bad thing, tummy stitches which we all know how wonderful those are to deal with...eye roll!!!
WOW! me too. i feel like such a girl now...even a bit sexier ^_^
four months out and straws are not a problem. the air from my surgery is gone and my tummy doesn't mind it. i am not chugging so maybe that is why it feels fine. sugar...oh...sugar. fruit is cool. a...
stay away from that silly scale for a few weeks. 1. iv fluids keep you alive and bloat you. 2. you are not hungry, but your body is fighting back. it is holding on to your fat as some weird survival...
i had my surgery in december 2012 and went on vacation in late february. i drank a few times and no worries. nothing fizzy, though. watch it a bit because you might get tipsy quicker. i didn't. it...
i had never had any gallstone issues unil 2-3 months after my surgery. get it out! it surgery is much easier and takes a lot less time to heal than the sleeve. i tried to soldier through for a week...
i am a "bad girl" who has a coke every once in a while. i poor it in a glass and let it sit for an hour. one small glass satisfies my craving and literaly makes me full and i use it as a meal...
yah, mine was all out of wack and i was/am taking birth contrl pills. our body is trying to figure this all out and lucky us our periods are a sure sign something weird is going on. luck us, eh?!?
exactly what these folks said...iv fluids are jerks, yet life saving. wait for like 2-4 weeks and you will be doing a happy dance!!
mine is 32 and yes, i have gerd. however, if take my pills in the morning and evening i never feel any problems. i wish it was larger, but only for selfish eating reasons...typical, right?
i get it sometimes when i quickly get up from laying down. i know it is time for a protein shake...but that is hao my body works. ask your doctor for the best answer. good luck, dear!!
i understand financial issues, but the sleeve is an investment in your life. also, running after a child at 160lb is a lot different that running after a child at 260lb. i teach elementary school and...
i was the same. i got really weak, too. protein drinks with some milk added and make it as thin as possible help keep you going. it prob will not stretch, but will heal and help you eat better....
in the beginning i could eat nothing but wanted everything and honestly got depressed about it. however two or so months on my mind got the message and all is well, finally. our brains are like old...
About 2 years ago I was banded and 3 months ago I transitioned to the sleeve after band troubles. Anyway, I am almost 100lb down. It is a big deal to me and I want to something nice for myself. In...
There was no sign of anything before I started my weight loss. Nothing. However, being female and family has a lot to do with your odds as well as rapid weight flux. Most of my older family members...
So I had my band converted to a sleeve in late December and my weight loss total had almost hit the 100lb mark. Great, right? Well, last week I started feeling sharp pains on the opposite side of my...
