Kidney stones are a side effect of the surgery. It's because of all the calcium we are taking in. Since my surgery on 2 March, I have passed 5 kidney stones (I was already prone to them prior to...
Much like everything else in this world, you have to balance the benefits of the surgery with the risks. Yes it's possible that there could be complications ... this is surgery ... there are ALWAYS...
I had to undergo a psych eval as well ... they just basically want to make sure you aren't suffering from any disfunction, such as body dismorphic disorder (I can't spell today) or that you have body...
It's the iron supplement and/or the iron in your multivitamin ... I asked my nutritionist after seeing my first "greenie"
OMG you are only getting 200 calories a day?!?! Gunka that is not NEARLY enough ... Even on clear liquids, you should be getting 500 a day ... Please PLEASE drink juice or something that has some...
YAY! Stalling BAD ... I'm so glad you are SUCH a loser!
*HUGS*
Smoothie King is a TERRIBLE choice for a protein shake ... If you look at their nutritional charts (Nutritional Information for 20 oz. Size — Smoothie King) they are actually quite low in...
I was sleeved on March2 and have never been to a support group meeting ... I found their timing, unfortunately, to be the WORST possible for me so I use the online boards as my support group.

I usually have...
You CAN do this, Roman ... just keep saying that to yourself ... you CAN do this and you aren't alone!
Cheers!
I swear by 2 things:
GNC Amp Protein Powder & Atkins shakes. They have gotten me through to this point with ease ... I strongly advise AGAINST the Vanilla powder for GNC (it tastes like raw cake...
I still have some slight issue with this ... every now and again, I have to take a suppository to help things along ... but then again, everyone who knows me will tell you I'm so full of sh*t that my...
Congratulations! You are making such positive, healthy choices to live your life!
I know this will be an unpopular option but, if you find that you really can't choke it down ... buy something else. Instead of worrying over having to choke it down and making yourself DREAD it ......
My journey was 2 years from the time I decided to have the surgery to the date of my surgery. My surgeon doesn't do a liquid pre-diet and I wanted to take the time to lose the weight that had to...
They don't remove the hunger hormone ... Beginning about 2 months post op, I felt hungry again ... I wasn't hungry for the longest time but I did eventually begin to feel hungry again ... So you have...
Thanks all ... and yes ... yes it did ... AMAZING
Unfortunately yes ... you can ... which is why my advise is to deal with the issues that make you WANT to binge
The stomach CAN stretch back out again ... you can MAKE yourself eat past the point...
Grumblefrog ... Obviously, everyone is different and we all lose at different rates, heal differently and each experience is it's own ... however, from my perspective ... the risks of the surgery...
Congratulations! It always feels good when you finally "click" with someone ... Thankfully, my surgeon was the first one I met and he was absolutely AWESOME so I know how good that feels.
Cheers!
