First few days there is some pain, but mine was managed with pain medicine. After that, I had some pain when I moved, but it wasn't too bad. 6 months out I can hardly remember the pain. I'd do it...
I was at about the same weight you are at when I had my initial appt last October. You will get guidance on what to do. I believe the purpose of losing some on your own is to make sure your mind is...
You're doing great. Don't get discouraged. I've been in a stall for a month on the scale, but the inches are coming off like crazy.
The cappuccino flavor is better than the fuzzy navel and mixes up better. Not as sweet as most shakes. I ate a lot of the Greek yogurt and cottage cheese. (Blended). The unjury chicken broth protein...
My NUT said that I was eating too much at a time when I was just eating breakfast, lunch, & dinner. I went back to eating six small " meals" a day and sure enough, I'm out of my stall. The total...
Great job! Very motivational.
Are you drinking enough water. How about your blood pressure -- is it too low now? What is your doctor saying?
I think many on here are thinking about that we all had that " OMG, what did I just do" moment after we had surgery. The pain meds, coming off of anesthesia, concentrating on fluids and protein, the...
I didn't do weights until 6 weeks. I started out with walking and after 5 weeks did the stationary bike. At 4 months I can do about anything now as far as yoga classes, Zumba, aqua aerobics, etc....
I think it all depends on your insurance and if you have co health issues ( high blood pressure, sleep apnea, etc). If you are working with a doctor now, I'd think you'd be locked in, but you should...
Your feelings are normal. The pre-diet and first couple weeks recooperaing are the toughest, but then it gets a little easier.It's all worth it. You'll have more energy and feel so much better. One...
Mine started coming out in clumps at 2 1/2 months. My dermatologist said not much helps except the shampoo treatments, but you have to use them twice a day. I always took the right amount of calcium...
With the moving in September, I would wait. You shouldn't be lifting much until at least 4 - 6 weeks. Can you schedule the surgery for the first of October?
Returning to work after only 6 days...
200 sticks of butter
You're doing great with your weight loss! I remember everything you're describing. I'm over 3 months out and I can eat a little of whatever with no trouble.
My doctor said it was ok to take 2 silver chewable Centrums a day
Dehydration creeped up on me at the week I started soft foods. It was hard to balance all the water, protein shakes, and food with thirty minutes apart. Had to go to get infused with fluids and then...
I took off two weeks. Still a little tired that first week at work, but felt fine after that.
Good Luck!
Wow. You're only a week out. Way too early for any amount of chicken. It's important to stick to your doctor's food list while your stomach is healing. You'll love your sleeve very soon. Try to...
I had trouble with my vitamins. Recently switched to Centrum Silver chewable s and those work just fine.
Most of us questioned our decision to have this surgery at least once. It is normal. I am 2 months out and I can say that I'm lucky and can eat about anything that is on my list. I don't feel...
My nutritionist told me to give myself a break the first couple weeks and not worry about "grazing". Your stomach is healing and you won't be able to eat much at a time. You still need to get your...
Each day gets better. Hang in there! First week is the hardest. Try different temperatures of your fluids. I found warm caffeine-free tea went down pretty well and chicken broth.
The Syntrax Nectar Cappuccino flavor is very good. It's Whey Protein Isolate and I don't think it's as sweet as some of the other's are. I still drink one a day to make sure I get all the protein I...
