Hi all! I’m 3 years out from sleeve, and the past 6 months have been having a lot of issues with canker sores, and “burning mouth” syndrome. Lately I’ve been having a lot of upper GI gas, and reflux....
Thanks guys!
Hi Amy!
congrats on your journey! I felt the same way!!! I had about 9 months of hoops to jump through. I scheduled in a few "last meals and snacks" during that time period. I scheduled them so...
Congratulations!!! Glad things are looking up for you after dealing with so much!
I'd say it took me about 3 months to get back to my full energy level. Hang in there! It gets better!
Hang in there! I know it's frustrating. It was a few months wait from after I finished everything before I got the surgery. Granted, after I had finished all my pre surgery work ups (which took...
Hey everyone! It's been awhile since I've been on due to hectic life circumstances. I was wondering if anyone here has had kidney issues following surgery?
My glomerular filtration rate which is a...
Thank you all for your responses! I feel about a lot better now :)
After your consultation how long until your surgery with insurance? I have Cigna insurance and it was 8 months from my first consultation to surgery.
Did it hurt day 1 ? Day one I was really sore....
Congratulations!!! What an amazing accomplishment! Would you have ever thought at your heaviest that you would be able to do anything like this?!
Welcome! Congratulations on trudging through the 6 month pre-op period! I know it's difficult and frustrating, but like you said you're in the home stretch!
Good luck!
I have a question. I'm a year out, and I'm still getting the majority of my protein from protein shakes. I drink two a day, one for breakfast and one in the afternoon (sometimes I'm not hungry for...
Looks delicious! I'll have to try those!
Don't know anything about protein shots.
I do know, however, that I need less sleep than I used to. I used to sleep 10+ hours / night on a weeknight, 13+hours on the weekend, and always needed a...
Congratulations future grandma! Your daughter is stunning in that wedding photo. Also, great job on the running!
Way to go!! Congratulations :)
Great job!! It's sometimes hard being "good", especially at events like that! You made great choices, keep up the good work!
Hello, and congrats on getting your surgery approved!
1. I'm aware that VSG is not "magic" but logistically, it's difficult to figure out how or why this works when other options don't. Is it the...
Hi Christina!
I felt a lot better during my pre-op diet. I was a type II diabetic, and getting off the carbs, sugar, eating a much lower calorie diet helped with my energy levels big time!
I...
congrats on your surgery! Hope recovery is going well for you so far!
so glad to hear that things went well!! Great job getting up and walking!
Hi there!
I can't really help with the acid reflux as I never had a problem with it before surgery , and have never had an issue after.
As far as sagging skin goes, for having lost over 100...
Hi Pumpkin!
Congrats on getting your surgery scheduled and the amazing pre-op weight loss!
This surgery was by far the best decision I ever made.
Haven't gained any yet, but have been stuck for a little over a month. Like you, I've had an extreme amount of stress and have gotten away from how I SHOULD be eating.
I don't know if this will...
Wishing all the best for you!
