fluffylibra30 replied to mufasas-mom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It is a pain having to try everything on, I'm a grab and go kind of shopper. I don't care about the #s I just want them to fit properly! -
Grazing a lot after dinner :(
fluffylibra30 replied to CarolinePT09's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was grazing after dinner as well, it was mostly while watching TV. I figured it was a hand/bored thing. Now I find activities to do after dinner. Craft, read anything that keeps me busy -
Hypothyroidism and Protein Drinks?
fluffylibra30 replied to Chubarella's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take mine in the PM right before bed. My endo.said that was acceptable, just follow the food rule 1 hour before bed and I have learned to swallow mine without even any water. I have been sleeved for 14 months and have stayed on .75 since being sleeved. -
Diet pills after Vsg surgery !
fluffylibra30 replied to baseballmom02's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have not used them but I am interested If anyone has. I am thinking it probably isn't a good idea. Most are filled with caffeine, way more than we are supposed to have, also most OTC diet pills aren't FDA regulated and you really have to do research to make sure you know exactly want you are taking. -
Does anyone take a B1 supplement? My thiamin levels were severely low so they put me on B1 but I had never heard of that before. .... I was Rxed the b12 injection. My PC said the levels were on the high side, but my surgeon didn't seem to think so.

Calling all Overachiever Sleevers (ya'll know who you are)..and Achiever Sleevers too...

I do Asics, Nike Free, Nike Air Max, and Brooks. I like the Air Max the best. If you have a quality shoe store in your town (not a chain like Finish line or foot locker) they will do a shoe test with you to find your best fit and what kind of foot you have. My store spent an hour with me, and I swear they came back with the ugliest shoe I have ever seen. But it was the best for my foot so I bought them (brooks) I use them for my running days.

You will be able to "gulp" again! I Chug 20 oz during an hour workout. It will take about 8 months but you'll get there. The hardest part is remembering you Can't chug. Hurts bad!

Marshall's gets some Marika sometimes, they are the best sports bra I have ever owned. I grabbed 3 different sizes last time I saw them. It's called the Marika Miracle. They retail for 50$ I got mine for 10$. They are adjustable all over. And held me in well. Cause I do a lot of running and heavy duty cardio.

Ouch i made a bad choice
fluffylibra30 replied to diekoi's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am a year out and can still hardly tolerate bread. Still miss it too lol. I would make myself throw it up, but that's just me, the grossness is worth not having the tummy ache. -
Tanning beds or sunless tanning products?
fluffylibra30 replied to Bos123's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The Jergens natural glow is great, it doesn't make you orange anywhere. I get a mystic tan sometimes it's great as well! But I will confess bad for you or not, I DO tan In the winter. I suffer from S.A.D. And it helps A LOT! I use a SPF moisturizer on my face and cover it with a towel. I guess ill have to suffer the consequences eventually but it is best for me in the short term. I I also have a light box at home, which helps some. -

fluffylibra30 replied to LadiWobs's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would cut out the gravy first. Tuna, chicken, turkey. Anything you can put in the blender really. Just go with Protein first then some veg. I struggled on mushies cause my stomach liked nothing blended :-/ -

fluffylibra30 replied to Nicolanz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wouldn't recommend it either but I do 5 hour energy shots. 1-2. A week maybe. I Take an extra Nexium on those days just incase. I am a year out though. Make me feel great. Only vise I have. A girl needs some caffeine sometimes. -

Are you taking your vitamins? Ever since I started takin my vitamins my nails are long hard and strong. They used to be brittle and soft. -
Check those nutritional details
fluffylibra30 replied to Fiddleman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I use the spray dressings or dip my salad. Also I noticed that most "light" dressings may have less calories or fat but have more carbs. Gotta read those dang labels. -

Do you have a Facebook account? A lot of cities/towns now have local "yard sale" pages. I have gotten a lot of cute used name brand clothes on my towns sight. Even sold some too. People like buying "almost" new clothes. Just do a search on Facebook.

How are you doing on the "emotional" side of being skinny?
fluffylibra30 replied to CowgirlJane's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I myself am doing great, it's everyone around me who is Weirder. I used to work as a store manager at a local convenient store for 8 years, so I got to know a lot of people. This gentleman came in and we were always friendly. Saw him twice a day for 8 years. We talked about life, our families his wife, my husband, you know just stuff. He was always friendly in a nice person kind of way. Anyway, I saw him in the store and he tried to pick me up. Made me sad. He treated me so different. I liked being his friend not someone he wanted to, well you know. I just told him I was still quite happily married and just left the store. What's up with that? -
I'm worried about losin my belly button. I heard that happens sometimes when doing tummy skin removal (a panni removal) I'm just trying to learn to be comfortable in my own skin (ba-dum-cha.) but I would like some boobs. I have always had big boobs, I would like to have my DDs back. I'm sure they would look great on my tinier frame. Maybe ill max out the Visa. ????

It is everyone's own choice if you decide to share but people will gossip either way. Just keep your head high and enjoy your weight loss.
