Neuropathy and Sciatica history
hopeful2 be slim replied to butterfly2014's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my scitica pain is also much less due to loss of weight. -
I have read all about stalls and why they happen.so now i am not getting upset...i am looking thinner...I am sure the scale will move soon. all the best to all of you.
-
Maybe its gas.try walking..when ever i had nausea it went away with walking.since all your reports were clear.
-
you must walk.I too felt tired but forced my self to walk though I walk with a stick due to arthritis. you will see the difference.

thanks Michele, i live in India. Here our postoperative is not so good. I phoned but they say we cant tell you anything over the phone. not even diet change.thanks a lot. I will be careful.I am sure no harm in taking fish oil in the milkshakes.I have just started fish also.I was on a veggie diet so far.

How long does it take to heal?
hopeful2 be slim replied to ShayLove's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am 1 month post op.I still have pain if I exert. We have to go slow..only walking for 3 months. otherwise your stomach will hurt. this was a major surgery so better to let the sleeve heal completely. all the best. -
How can band removal cause a leak? the band was much higher ,if there was scar tissue healing might be slow.

Hurtful family member (off topic)
hopeful2 be slim replied to Ree's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Honestly its time to make her realise that she is hurting every one...be strict with her. and dont loose your peace of mind...I know its easier said than done... but you must be strict with her. -
Hurtful family member (off topic)
hopeful2 be slim replied to Ree's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
my sister's husband was the same..always shouting and throwing tantrums if he didnt get what he wanted.or when ever he made a mistake. But one day she got the courage to shout back and now she does not give him a chance to shout... he does not have many qualities,has had numerous affairs,has wasted a lot of money and so on. -
i was getting pain if I sat in 1 place for too long...walk every hour are Doc's instructions.avoid bending too much. all the best.take care.
-
its wonderful to read your story...I too am motivated. My problem is I cant walk much due to arthritis. But I will succeed. thanks and best wishes

I am so confused about food
hopeful2 be slim replied to GotItDoneInHarlem's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
the best thing would be to eat a few bites less. Then there is no fear of the pouch stretching. -
I have done it at 1 time. here in India we have to pay for it. and for two surgeries the cost would have been huge. My doctor said I will try to do it if every thing is ok. so far no complications. Only healing time is more.
-
this post is really encouraging.I am 59 and had my surgery 4 weeks back. My knees are hurting too much as no medicines allowed...cant walk much...I am loosing weight . I hope I can be as successful as you!!
-
i have got a headche since 3 days. I cant understand the reason. is it dehydration?I am taking more fluids since yesterday.

Is there anything more depressing...
hopeful2 be slim replied to Madam Reverie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
thanks. even I am planning to buy a wig and start using it before hair fall starts.I have very short hair and I can buy a wig with a similar style -
Which Bariatric vitamins, minerals and other dietary supplements do YOU take ?
hopeful2 be slim replied to Alex Brecher's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
thanks Alex.when can I start Omega 3 ?I have been taking those regularly. But now Doc said no medicines. My knees have gone dry!!! its been almost a month now. Maybe I can cut them ope and mix with milk or something? -
a little concerned
hopeful2 be slim replied to katt1584's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes dehydration also causes cramps...increase your liquids and do the foot exercises. I know cramps can be very uncomfortable.add electrolytes to your liquids. Get well soon. -
i dont think toast is a good choice. we have to avoid bread. and we need only soft foods. Sorry you are going thru all this...it is depressing I know. I have got a headache due to dehydration. How depressing...I was trying to get in soft foods every few hrs and neglected my liquids...
-
Did you follow the diet? strained liquids for 1 or 2 weeks,then purees,then mushies... our stomach is still very much swollen and healing.so we have to give it time to heal. The first time i tried scrambled eggs I felt nausea. So I have not had it again. the sleeve dislikes many foods now. It is normal to eat only few bites. I am sure your doctor will guide you.You can go back to Clear Liquids for 1 day.
