    8 Days Post-Op

    The United States Coast Guard did. They said we dont care how you lose it but you have too in order to keep your License. They want to pull my license because of BMI. They told me this is what came up in the conference in 2010. Bmi 34 and above. sleep Apnea, strokes, diabetes, heart attacks and so on. Also ability and agility tests in case of emergencies. In other words since they have to follow these same rules all licensed personel through them shall as well. I should have sued for discrimination. But I am not one of those people

    8 Days Post-Op

    I had my sleeve done on 2/17 This is my routine: Morning 17oz Eas Myoplex. 300cal 5.5oz V8 30cal Total time to complete 1 hour 45-60 min break inbetween lunch One fish filet around 4oz 130cal Total time 3 hours 45-60 min break inbetween dinner One fish filet 4oz 130 cal Total time 3 hours. 590cal/day average Notice no Water inbetween. After 1 hour after my last meal Thats when I get my water in. Usually a 20oz bottle which takes me an hour to drink. Did I tell you that food sucks. I really hate to eat now. Maybe my doc put the ringer on me cause I did it for my job cause he knew I had no choice.

    Exercise

    Ok I am not a woman first off all. But I will throw this out there. I used to be able to get the top of the line strenght thiomucase cream. I cant anymore so I cant vouch for products on the market now. I have used this before on my inner thighs for 6 months pre summer when I was 20ish. It did work for me. It helps mobilize fat cells. Do a search to get the full story on it. Capt Derel is surprising isn't he. But to get that mental focus your looking for. I cant tell you that. ECA used to be the way to go but we cant use that being sleeved.

    Diet Pills

    Rootman. Isnt it funny how EVERY diet pill with the exception of alli isnt evaluated by the FDA.. This means the ingredients they list ate probably in there just probably not as much as stated plus they add fillers to take up the excess. I always ordered my products from places like custom capsule which use real ingredients. They cost more but you know what your getting. But the FDA has banned all otc HCG products in the USA because they are total fakes. But you still see old stock on the shelves. The FDA finally did something good. Thats the first time in 15 years

    Diet Pills

    No ma'am. If you dont eat right after you will regain some of the weight back. Side effects are minimal according to my Doctor.

    Diet Pills

    In your country you may be able to pick up human chrionic gonadotropin straight from a pharmacy. It is an injectable through an insulin syringe and it has to be reconstituted with bariostatic Water prior to use and once reconstituted it only has a shelf life of 28 days. It works for weightloss but you still have to follow the high protei/low carb diet to maximize its full potential. If you dont do it right it the weight does rebound. But since were sleeved, rebounding might not play a big part. Its worth a shot if your getting the real product. Imho

    Diet Pills

    Did they mention as to what Real HCG is made out of? A womans placenta. Kinda gross imho. As a man I will pass on that. That idea just doesnt jive with me. But the Doc does want me to take it to up my testosterone production. Imagine that. For the most part it does work as long as its prescribed. Otc is fake

    Diet Pills

    There is a product out there called Raspberry Ketones. Its a metabolism stimulator. This is my theory being that we are sleeved. If we take White Kidney Bean Extract 600mg Chitosan 400mg Betaine HCL 200mg Bromelin 50mg blend designed to block both carbohydrate and fat absorbtion, while at the same time aiding the body in the digestion of Protein. The unique combination of White Kidney Bean Extract and Chitosan will effectively block the assimilation of carbs and fats into the body. Bromelin and Betaine HCL are enzymes that aid in the digestion of protein and create a synergestic effect to the already potent fat and carb blocker. + L-Carnitine is essential for the transport of fatty acids into the cellular organelle, mitochondrion, for conversion into energy by oxidation. It has a structure similar to that of amino acids and is formed from L-lysine and L-methionine. + Magnesium Aspartate Potassium Aspartate Heptaminol HCL Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Uridine Triphosphate Sodium Selenite Cyanacobalamin (B12) Together these are an effective aid in the body’s fat loss, muscle growth and cardiovascular system improvements. It achieves this by stimulating the metabolic oxidation and energy transformation processes. Its alot of stuff to buy but its all in liquid form so you dont have any pills to worry about. You dont have to worry about heartburn which I always get from diet pills. If anyone knows of anything better please enlighten me. My ears are always open.

    Revision Gone Wrong

    Do you think the surgery might have gone better if it wouldnt have been a Ban to sleeve revision? I know that I am not clear for months thats why I dont press on it. The slower my transitional phases are the better in helping my stomach heal. Some people get the raw end of a deal and its very unfortunate it happened to you. But I am sure once you fully recover youll feel alot better

    Fish Recipes

  17. White kidney beans extract is used to block carbs. Dont ask me to explain it. I just wonder how that works with regular white kidney beans

    Soft Food Stage Woohoo!

    The only thing I am handling is fish as in snapper, talapia, salmon, tuna, and swordfish. But it takes me about 3 hours to eat a 4oz steak. If I try and rush the eject button gets pressed. I wish that I could have relish so that I could make a crab salad. Seafoods great but I cant handle shrimp . Well this friday will start week 6 and Imma cook a crawfish ettoufe for my crew. No rice for me just crawfish n sauce will be just fine. Note: Starkist sinsations make a microwaveable fillet of fish thats awesome. I am buying more when I go home. Excellent

    Pre Op Diet

    I am pretty sure they wont push back the surgery if she did the 3 days of clears right before. You havent read the treads on women eating the day before and then trying to throw up and use mag citrate. LoL thats nuts. But their docs still did the surgery. From my collective gathering the whole diet perspective is to get up into ketosis. It helps out post op big time. But post op the last thing your worrying about is food except for popcicles . I was sick the week of my surgery. I got a shot on monday told both of my docs and both said you will be on enough antibiotics to kill nearly anything left that you will have by then. Hmm so yes tell the doc but will it matter 98% will be negative

    Staples And Pricing

    I saw the stapler used on my in the surgery room. And it was the ethicon echelon along with the refills . The stapler dont cost that much. Much less the staples. The US and Canada hike prices to make their costs seem legit. I asked the doc before hand how many rows of staples and he said 6. 3 on your new pouch and 3 on the old pouch. And I had my surgery done in jerusalem clinic in TJ,Mx for 4500 bucks. And they had over 20 employees. Figure that one out. Oh and my stapler and refills WERE in the factory presealed packs. Tell your doc to shop for his tools else where

    Pre Op Diet
