Hi all! I got my Sleeve surgery done through Dr. Carl Pesta and he now has a Facebook page. Mine was done on August 31 2011 ane I have lost 133 lbs from my highest weight. I feel great! If you are...
No your not crazy! I feasted before my surgery going to my favorite restaurants for my favorite dishes because i knew I would never be able to eat that way again. It was worth it and the surgery was...
Your welcome. =0) As for the soy milk, I don't believe so, but I have never had it.
Get in to see your Dr. He will need to see it in order to tell you what is going on. Such a major surgery you don't wan't to take any chances. Hope all ends up being fine.
You can get a protein powder that mixes with water and has 20 grams of protein per serving. GNC has it.
Give yourself time. Your body is adjusting to surgery and weight loss. You keep eating right, walking and getting stronger and you will see fat melt. You get used to the old you and the new you is...
Don't worry be happy! =0) I am not so lucky and wish I was having that easy so just think of it as being a lottery winner. =0)
I would talk with your Dr. about it but if you really can't handle sugar-free just try for low sugar. i know aspartame gives me horrible headaches. Plus remember you got a sleeve not the bypass so...
I am really trying to be conscious of what I put in me and my program through my doctors is a little to fast paced I think in regards to moving forward to the next phases. I appreciate everyone's...
Thank you all for your responses! I feel so much better knowing I am not going bonkers and that is temporary! I hope all your sniffers dim to normal to and good luck on your continued weight loss...
It has been 2 weeks since my surgery and I am smelling way to much of everything which adds to the nausea I get on and off. Does this go away or do I need to invest in clothes pins? It is just really...
I am post op about 12 days and the last couple have been rough. Eggs were OK a few days ago but now are a no and toast was OK but now no. I realize my back pain is really my new stomach pain and I am...
Congrats! I feel better just seeing your results for my future. =0)
You can do it! You will do fine. Just don't push yourself on anything after surgery to get to a step your not ready for. Less than 2 weeks and I learned scrambled eggs were allowed but my body said...
It could be from the shots they give us to reduce clotting which affects the hormones. Hope it clears quickly for you. =0)
Oh my God yes! Why can we smell things more?
You need to do what is right for you. I would take care of the heart situation before the revision just to make sure your body can handle the surgery. I understand if your husband has doubts because...
Man I can't believe it is so soon now when it seemed so very far and almost was refused. I am on the liquid diet and will be happy when it is done and know I will never have to feel this hungry...
I thought this day would never get here...literally. I have Blue Care Nightmare which requires 6 months of observation if you do not have a BMI of 50 or higher. On top of it my regular Dr. almost...
Thank you! Good luck to you too!
I have not had surgery yet and was wondering how your experiences were or if you have not had surgery how you are feeling about it. I have my pre-surgical seminar on Wednesday and meet my surgeon...
This is my one worry, losing the weight so fast i end up with stretched out skin. For those who have had the surgery can you tell me what you have experience in regards to this. It is my only big...
I feel as you did before your surgery. I know the only way I will ever get back to a normal weight is through this surgery. At certain points I though doing this was giving in and being a failure but...
Hi my name is Connie. I have been struggling for years with my weight like I am sure everyone on here has been. I had my son 14 months ago via c-section and 8 months ago I broke both feet and had a...
