Hey favoredone..love your new profile pic cutie! Have you tried some home remedies to help you sleep or consider asking a sleep doctor or pcp for something to help? Nothing ruins your health more than sleep deprivation..for me anyway. Congrats on your weightloss..you are doing great!

I was sleeved on the 27th..as most know, I had a leak. I had lost 24 pounds but gained some back when I was on TPN. I'm slowly getting that weight back off. It was a set back but I still have my eye on the prize.

Nausea, Anyone?

I'm having the same problem, have tried different things but nothing has worked. I'm a month and day out so I hope it ends soon. Diarrhea is an issue too. -
Just Got Some Bad News...i Need A Pick Me Up!
peacequeen replied to sleeve 4 me's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm so sorry to hear this news! Athero runs in my family so I understand what you are going through. I don't have it (not yet anyway..) Getting all your weight off is a first step that you've already conquered..so you are ahead of the game. Keep positive like the person you are and push forward..you seem like the type of person that isn't easily defeated : ) You'll be in my prayers. -
Peek Inside My Medicine Cabinet
peacequeen replied to LilMissDiva Irene's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Thanks for posting this, diva! I have a thyroid disease and my skin is sooo dry..I've been looking for something to help plus I have scars that I could use some help fading out..thank you so much! -
I found this website, thought I'd share. You click on a category and it takes you to a huge list of foods,,you click on any of them and it breaks down how many Protein grams are in a product. http://www.highproteinfoods.net/

peacequeen replied to peacequeen's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks everyone! Happy,,thank you for the sacrifice..lol -
Maybe this is the place to ask..as we all know, after 40 it's hard to tone up. Does anyone have any suggestions on great excercises that is good to tone the tummy?

What Is Your New Addiction?
peacequeen replied to medicgipson's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think it's obsurd that someone in the medical field would place the thought in your mind..that you are going to have another addiction. It's probably not always the case..they could've at least told you something positive..like "you may want to find something else to occupy your time" or whatnot. I hope my "new addiction" will be excercise and being happy enjoying new quality time with my family. -
Overly Full On Phase 2 Foods. How Do You Get Your Protein?
peacequeen replied to Kareforme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Protein shots are the way for me. I have found some that contain 42 grams protein and I can drink them in halves with crystal light. I don't even have to drink 2 full shots a day to get my protein in. Sometimes I drink chike strawberry shakes,,they are really good. -

peacequeen replied to Joiebean's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What a great dad you have! Congrats on your awakening and good luck on your journey..you'll do awesome with the good attitude you have. -
I have the same problem but unfortunately I'll repeat what you already know..you have to get the fluids in.lol Sometimes when I have something warm, it keeps me from getting that "gross" feeling..like I want to throw up. Other things count as fluids, you can have sf popsicles, jello..crystal light makes an awesome peach tea..if you like peach.

I was told that bypass was an option for me also. First option was to let it heal on its own, which is the choice I picked and so far so good. A leak can be caused by several reasons besides food. Don't beat yourself up over a nacho whatever you do..very doubtful that caused it. Keep us posted,,I'm right there with ya girl..I'm home but still on tpn and antibiotics (thought my line would come out today but nope)

Thoughts and prayers going out to you.

Different Kind Of Full

Yes, all the way up to my throat. I'm hoping with time, this will change. I have Gerd so it could be for that reason. -
I Have A Leak In My Gastric Sleeve!
peacequeen replied to MeMeMEEE's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It's so strange how tpn works, I gained 13 pounds back after losing 24. I hope after the tpn stops, I can get the weight off quick. I feel miserable. I didn't realize how much better I felt with even a little weight off. I can't stomach any kind of protein powders now..I'm doing protein shots. They don't taste too bad and you can add them to crystal light or whatever fruit drink you like.
