  1. I ate during pre-op and now I’m freaking out!

    I did all the resets and all that stuff and unfortunately they didn’t work for me. I used my fitness pal and tracked everything I even breathed. I also know I have a...

    Re: Heartburn

    It got better for me shortly after surgery. Then I started feeling hungry all the time and found out that heartburn can also feel like hunger so be aware of that if it happens to you. After a few...

    OMG! I watched Dr. V. He is so awesome! I bet his success rate is really high. He seems so cool!! Lol. I’ve never seen a doctor act to casual and chill. I wish he’d have been my surgeon. With all of...
  8. Re: I wish someone had told me this 6 freakin years ago!!

    Yeah, I’ve heard that too; that we never lose the cells, they just get smaller. The only way to get rid of them is lipo (which I want so bad!! Lol). I honestly never knew anything about RMR and feel...

    Re: Weight regain 2 years post op

    I’m so sorry to hear you are going through this. I myself have regained 70 so I know how hopeless it feels. I just posted what my nutritionist told about how your resting metabolic rate can...
  10. I wish someone had told me this 6 freakin years ago!!

    So I’ve had a regain of 70lbs and couldn’t for the life of me figure out how I could possibly be gaining because I don’t eat enough to have gained that much. Well, I’m having a revision to bypass...

    well, it’s covered since it’s medically necessary to repair the hernia so that’s good. I’ve tried the resets and all that stuff and I’m getting nowhere except for back on the diet roller coaster....

    Re: Gained 15 pounds after sleeve

    What Anne said times infinity! I too am recovering from a few years of stress that led me to make choices which caused a 62lb weight gain after losing 118lbs. I must have said 100 times that I was...

    Re: Post Op Day 7 - Do others feel this way

    My post op days hurt like hell. I felt like someone had repeatedly punched me in the stomach. I had to have a pillow pressed against my abdomen at all times for comfort. It took me every bit of the 7...

    Re: Does it get better??

    I was not cleared for regular food until 7 weeks out. There is a reason they progress you slowly back to real food. The biggest concern right now is not damaging your staples. Eating foods not in...

    Re: Doctor’s Note?

    What she said. My doctor was vague and gave dates. Your work is not allowed to ask. If they do, you don't have to tell them.

    Re: OMG VSG! Can it stretch?

    I'd like to know your definition of falling off the band wagon. Can you give an example of what you've eaten that you feel is a "bad food"? At this point post-op you will have more restriction than...

    Re: Tragic - please be aware

    I guess I'm very fortunate that my surgeon prescribed weekly B12 shots when I went in for my first follow up. He said he was giving them to me because there could be "B12 absorption issues". I gave...
  24. Re: Too many conflicting opinions are getting me confused!!

    Thank you all for your responses and words of support. A hybrid type of keto just works for me. I unintentionally did it when I got sleeved. I'd never even heard of keto. Back then, I just ate the...

    Re: Yep.....today is the day

    People tend to set their goal weights at something they feel is achievable OR what their doctor tells them to set it at. Often, doctors tell them to set their goal for an 80% to 60% loss since...
