Almost Died Fm Vsg Surgery.
Bedhead replied to Kim David's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
If you really wanted that badly to know what happened to you, you would pull your medical records. By federal law the hospital/doctor has to make them available to you. -
Wine And Whine Wednesday!
Bedhead replied to Lilee84's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been sleeved for 23 days and I hate it. I feel like I've destroyed my life and I will never feel ok again. -
I'd rather pay cash for the sleeve than ever even consider putting the band anywhere near my body.

I'm in NY and did not need 6 months of weigh ins. It's more down to insurance rules than state rules.

I Am Not Understanding....
Bedhead replied to PreciousCargo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My NUT is totally against low carbing. She advocates making wise carb choices- but that's it. -

Oh and my info session was mid-November, my surgery was feb 6th. Less than 3 months from start to finish.

#1,2,3,4,5 and 6 should be calls to your insurance company. Check, double check, recheck, check one more time, confirm, then confirm the confirmation. Do nothing else until you've done that!

Only my husband and doctors know! I started a really intense workout and dieting routine before surgery and just told everyone I had ulcer/hernia repair.

Did The Dr Really Set My Goal For 100Lbs?
Bedhead replied to Priscilla Johnson Wright's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I thought I was going to be painfully slow- but I've almost lost 30lbs at the 3 week mark. -
From One Addiction To Another
Bedhead replied to MoonSiren's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Also the only time I close a credit card is if it has any sort of monthly or annual fees attached. I've had a lane Bryant credit line open for years and I don't even have the cards anymore (long since shredded). -
From One Addiction To Another
Bedhead replied to MoonSiren's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I see addictions as behaviors that are destructive- it does not sound to me like you are being financially destructive- you are paying off everything you buy immediately. If you were amassing debt by taking out loans and lines of credit- then I would be worried! -
Does Everyone Get A Drain?
Bedhead replied to atkinsoncl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did not have a drain. -
If you can do without them this long you may as well keep on keepin' on.

Hours To Eat A Slider
Bedhead replied to BluebonnetMagonlia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Whoa. This thread got weird in a hurry. -
This early out I think they're more interested in us getting some sort of nutrition in and the carb count just isn't as important when you can't even eat a full cup of food per day.

Can I Be Dehydrated If I'm Getting In 80-96Oz Of Fluids Per Day?

It could be a bladder/kidney/UT infection -
Coconut Oil For Weight Loss And So Many Other Good Uses.
Bedhead replied to AMLP's topic in Food and Nutrition
I wouldn't fry with it at all! It will start smoking like crazy. It's more like a spread- you'd put it on your toast or something. -

I've been using it for years as baby lotion, diaper rash cream, and lip balm! -
Did Medications Help You?
Bedhead replied to andi0120's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
On my last hospital stay it was found during an endoscopy that I had SEVERE erosion in my new sleeve. The Sucralfate basically turns to paste when it hits stomach acid and adheres to the lining of the stomach to promote healing. It has made SUCH a difference in just a few days. -
Liquids in = liquids out!

Did Medications Help You?
Bedhead replied to andi0120's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm on 20mg of Prilosec in the morning and bedtime. On top of that I take Sucralfate 4x daily and it has pretty much preserved my sanity. It's a miracle medicine! -
Has Anyone Got Pregnant Six Months After Vgs
Bedhead replied to sarah nelson's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
As much and as desperately as you want to get pregnant- I can not encourage you enough to wait. Your body had undergone a MAJOR surgery and it really needs the time to adjust to all of those changes. Wait the extra 6 months. In the grand scheme of things it will go by super fast and you will maximize your chances for the most healthy pregnancy possible.
