    Re: Update: Kristi7928 - PRAYERS needed

    I don't know why I thought she was your daughter - you didn't say that I guess I just assumed.
    I've been away for a long time so I am not up on who is who anymore. But I know I've made some good...

    Re: Update: Kristi7928 - PRAYERS needed

    Annie, I am so sorry about your daughter getting hurt so bad. It's such a stressful time even without that. I am not a big prayer person, but will try. Wishing her a good recovery & sending +...

    Re: Tell us your good news....

    AnnieG, what a beautiful thing to do for parents suffering such a loss.

    Right there with you with being an introvert. Wondering how much of a hermit I will be by the time we get through this.

    Re: Tell us your good news....

    I'm enjoying my garden and watching my plants slowly wake up. Peonies are starting to sprout from the ground, daffodils - some in bloom, some just about to. Tulips are starting to sprout their...

    Re: Hello Everyone

    It's been a long time since I was trying to wrap my head around the rules. I got my sleeve the month after you did - so I am going off memory now from quite a ways back. I'll bet you are correct,...
  11. Re: Traveling to get VSG in Tijuana during this pandemic

    Another factor is the possibility of Mexico closing the border temporarily. They have only 26 cases last I saw in the news - we have thousands. They see our situation as a huge risk, which I can't...

    Re: First big gain, please help!

    I'd think that starting the pill could definitely make a difference in weight, since hormones can affect water retention.

    Re: Former Rockstar considering revision

    Injuries throw such a wrench into things. I think they mess with your head as much as the physical damage to the body. I hope you are doing alright and that everything went well with your surgery.

    Re: Food Relationship Question - POST Sleeve

    I wish I could get away from measuring. But I need to, since my eyes are still bigger than my stomach. Especially with the small stomach. I put what seems like a teensy portion on my plate, but...

    Re: Ibuprofen/Anti-inflammatories

    Wow, that is a lot of ibuprofen! I used to take some too, but stopped even before my sleeve. I think that amount of ibuprofen might be bad for kidney function over time.
    There are foods that...

    Re: Hello Everyone

    Even though dish up small servings, I found that my mind set of what is small still overwhelmed my stomach. And that stopping when I felt full, was not good enough. Because 10 minutes later I would...

    I don't remember how long it took before I felt safe driving after my surgery. I was in Mexico for 4 days & didn't drive anywhere that weekend (after getting home). It must have been around a week...

    Re: How has having a sleeve changed your life?

    It's been quite a while since I've posted on this board. I had my sleeve in late 2013, I'm doing well although for me too it hasn't all been a walk in the park.
    After I got a post op infection from...

    Welcome to the forum, Nikkie. I think you are wise to approach this with caution & open eyes. You can get references, but the tricky part is not everyone may be real. Maybe if you post specific...

    Re: undecided about Mexico

    It seems lower than I'd expect in that amount of time, off hand. We are all individuals & maybe your body is trying to adjust. Are you measuring to see if you are losing inches instead of pounds...

    I'm so sorry. Maybe another avenue will open up for you. As for insurance, many employer based insurance plans in the US do not cover bariatric surgery at all. The employer must select coverage as...

    Is the 40 pound weight loss goal a number that sounds good, or where you would be if you are no longer obese or overweight? BMI is solidly in the obese range, so wondering how that pans out to only...
