MeMeMEEE replied to RitaBee's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Great positive attitude - you will do great! Good luck with a new date soon! -
I'm pretty sure I hit my stall this week - 4 weeks out. Honestly I don't care if my reflux would go away and my sinus drainage would stop I would be thrilled!!

Guys it won't let me edit anymore so I can't add anyone Just keep adding your dates though and we will know

MeMeMEEE replied to mamamckinzie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
This is the group - just August 2011 and we named ourselves August Allstars - it would be right here when we do it. -

We could just make it something like Allstars September 10th Checkin or whatever? -
Today I had these same thoughts, I know it's because I have been miserable with drainage from allergies and just not getting calories in. I know it will get better. I am 4 weeks out today.

I have it now, did not before. -
Just want a sanity check please

I find myself putting eating off because of the wait before and after for drinking - it's hard to get my fluids in as it is! -
I lost 28.6 lbs preop, 21 lbs of that was during my 6 months medically supervised diet then 7.6 lbs during my 2 weeks preop diet which was liquids and veggies plus yogurt. I wasn't required to lose any of it.

Yes, if you are on any meds that are for blood pressure or if they lower you blood pressure that could be a big cause!! -

Tracking Food, Water, Vitamins, Supps and Meds
MeMeMEEE replied to splashdancer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I track my vitamins on myfitnesspal.com - have not tried to see if meds are there but could easily add them. -

I love reading everyones updates - I do notice alot check in other places on the board so sometimes I catch it and sometimes I don't. It would be great if everyone checked in one place! -
I just hit the jackpot!

Glad to hear that! That is awesome if they work for you! I have a friend who is sending me some samples - sure hoping to find something tolerable in there! -
my story... my emotions
MeMeMEEE replied to iiPinkxLoveii's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I think it is very common at this stage to not feel restriction - you are mostly on liquids. -
I vomit often, is this common?
MeMeMEEE replied to skyblew's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can eat very little too. I am having a drainage problem which is making me get sick from that, not necessarily when I am eating. I am hoping that taking a decongestant tonight might help. I am getting about 200 calories too, I can't tolerate the shakes at all. -
I think breast is probably leaner. I like the dark meat better myself though. Breast can be so dry.

Thanks for checking in - was wondering about you! I am still having trouble with milk I can't imagine having to add it in to so many things!!

Have you taken anything for it? -

MeMeMEEE replied to MeMeMEEE's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well I guess I'm just not sure how sudafed or benadryl might help more than zyrtec? I am not congested in my head or chest, they did an xray, it is clear so it leads me to believe allergy. I do have tylenol sinus and other such things in the cabinet - do you really think it will help? And can I take it on top of the Zyrtec I took this morning? -
FLMA or Leave of Absence question?
MeMeMEEE replied to StephanieG86's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
FMLA is separate from your employer, usually another company, and is completely private - all the letter says is approved, the dates that are approved - that's it! Don't lose out on this benefit for fear of your employer!! Even my STD is a separate company. -
That's awesome!!
