My surgery was 2 days ago
MeMeMEEE replied to Terrib's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am pre-sleeve but my plan is to use the unflavored in my water, decaf coffee and tea...so that I will be getting protein in everything I can. -
somewhere it seems like I did see someone mention you do

I have heard others say they take something for the acid and that works for them

Got my letter yesterday from the program and I am Team Approved!! They finally called with lab results - I found out that I have low Vitamin D and have to start that right now. Also high cholesterol and triglycerides. Have to talk to my regular Dr about that. Blood in urine - they asked if I was on my period - seriously it took you nearly a month to call me, I have no idea!! LOL

you have to use the link that says BB or something similar. and to update, click your ticker (in your profile where you added it to your signature) and it takes you to your page for the ticker update - has you put in a pin at ticker factory

MeMeMEEE replied to BigTom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for sharing! I do have insurance for it so many of the "hoops" are counseling and nutrition appointments and I am praying they have prepared me well! -
Felicia - we will be the same time - I am about half way through my 6 months as well, last one is July 11th so hoping very soon after!! What is your starting info? I am 4'11 and weight now is 229 (down 13 from beginning of Dr visits). I am doing Weight Watchers for now.

Everyone seems to weigh so often.
MeMeMEEE replied to Griselda's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Ignoring the scale allowed me to gain back what I had lost before on weight watchers a few years ago, plus 35 pounds. I have to weigh in daily so that I don't let the numbers jump 10 at a time before I realize it -
I need healing prayers and thoughts!
MeMeMEEE replied to meggiep's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thinking of you and sending lots of healthy vibes!! -
What to bring as gifts, if not food
MeMeMEEE replied to Lots Of Hope's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I love the wind chime idea and specialty cheese - maybe adding a nice cheese knife -
I am choosing sleeve because it leaves your stomach functioning and there isn't the malabsorption issues.I don't like the reroute in RNY as I have lots of friends who are very vitamin deficient because of it. Overall it is a safer surgery also, per my surgeon.

unflavored or chicken soup flavored protein?
MeMeMEEE replied to MeMeMEEE's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I didn't know that about GNC - we do have them nearby - I will get some sample packs from them -
unflavored or chicken soup flavored protein?
MeMeMEEE replied to MeMeMEEE's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I guess my worry is I can't buy so many of them nearby so by the time I have to order them I will be moving on to more solid foods. Or do they ship super quick? I can just see me at home the week after surgery and having no protein powder! I agree the smell of the unflavored is icky but I think all protein powder smells nasty! Thanks for the tip on the vanilla in coffee - sounds great! -

I am so glad to hear your leak is healed and that there was an ulcer - just wish he had been more straightforward with you. -
Oh No Red Velvets! Hope it is not a trend!
MeMeMEEE replied to meggiep's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
awesome tip on adding fruit to cut the sweet - I will remember that! -
I got to goal once before with Weight Watchers, down to a size 8/10 and realized very quickly I will never be happy with my body when I am naked but I did love how I looked in certain clothes and so I just found the things I liked myself in.
