What I am getting at is what is actually in these HCG products? Because I know it definitely isn't real HCG because the real HCG is prescription only. ; ) (null)

First Day On Pre-Op Diet And Sugar Substitutes.....
Capt Derel replied to Meljp's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Cleaning your house as in cleaning everything you cant eat out of it. Your going to want some substance in your stomach and liquids just dont cut it LoL. I fight with this everyday and my deckhands feel obligated to eat right in front of me knowing that I am starving. Its been an eye opener for me. (null) -
Dr. Kelly Drama, Coordinators, Etc.
Capt Derel replied to joyceob21's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I can answer that. A forum called obesity help. Thats exactly where I read that. I know because I searched gastric sleeve deaths in Mexico on google. (null) -
Dr. Kelly Drama, Coordinators, Etc.
Capt Derel replied to joyceob21's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Like I stated earlier Kelly would have gotten my business if I wouldnt have already made all my plans. Now theres a Doctor in New Iberia in Louisiana that does it for $9800. Thats just a few more dollars (null) -

That "death" by knicked artery was brought upon by coordinator wars. So know one knows if its true. (null) -

Capt Derel replied to joyceob21's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I see someones got that shovel digging their own hole deeper. Retaliation is never justified. Better reread what you read or lay down and relax then read it again. I just stated they HAVE messy people on these boards that start mess and I just knew it was going to be brought up sooner or later but if you would read instead of jumping to a conclusion. You read "killed" and never finished reading. Thats pitiful Andy Lmfao (null) -

I could be like a few of the others on here and say "What about that woman he killed!!!" Wouldn't that bring you down hearing something like that. Fortunately its untrue but thats how some people are. Dr Kelly would be my next choice but I had already scheduled with another. I have read many threads and on a poll in my mind that I pieced together from reading I hear more good things about Kelly than any of the others (null) -
First Day On Pre-Op Diet And Sugar Substitutes.....
Capt Derel replied to Meljp's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Do you think drinking them for a 4 week period is going to kill you. All I can say is for myself, without them I would fail my 2 week post op. I am on my pre op and its already coming close to me breaking down. I goto bed starving. But drinking the EAS drinks help big time. I also use Promasil zero carb shakes but they are just as good as Water "no thickness". Hope your house is cleaned out. Goodluck (null) -
I am going to show this to my old lady. Shes gonna luv u for this. She loves pizza (null)

How Does The Stomach Heal Together From Vsg Surgery? Can Anyone Tell Me?
Capt Derel replied to Dooter's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thats why I am going to Mexico. When mexicans are born they automatically get a jack of all trades card. They believe in Duct tape and super glue. I would like to know the answer myself. I can see the stomach liners bonding up to 1/4" max only due to the scar tissue from the staple holes. I am asking for JBWeld (null) -
Iv fluids (null)

Now I see why they say do high Protein, high fats and low carbs. Makes all the sense to me. My back been hurting about 6inches away from my spine and about 1/3 up my back. I have been drinking loads of Water but since I am in ketosis I will go swig on some lite olive oil to see if that helps (null)

1 Yr Out, Starving, Even After A Protein Shake, Help?
Capt Derel replied to AMLP's topic in Food and Nutrition
I agree. I have tons of books on muscle chemistry. Most dont understand that its an art. When I was 20 I was on track then some emotional issues then money issues hit me and I went into a hole, got fat, and now I cant get out of it because I am too weak. But I have faith in the sleeve and its ability to kick me in the gut. I have always ate healthy but just way to much and recently in the last couple of weeks I found out at entirely the wrong times. Things happen and its just time for me to take control of me again (null) -
Yes maam (null)

1 Yr Out, Starving, Even After A Protein Shake, Help?
Capt Derel replied to AMLP's topic in Food and Nutrition
@Tattoedzombie-your a lifesaver. Well to me atleast. My biggest drawback was will I be able to pack back on muscle after this surgery. Keep in mind I was going to get the surgery anyway but now you have verified that I can attain my goal. Thanks alot (null) -
Egg drop soup duly noted. I was curious myself about this. But as far as hot and sour. That made me hurl and that was 2 years ago. Maybe I will give it another go around in 3 weeks after my op. (null)

Yeah lol. I can fit in it actually but I sure would appreciate more room hahaha (null)

Well your not alone. My father and mother dont like the fact that I am going to Mexico fearing they are going to take out some extra organs. My wife doesnt want me to do it because I will get lose weight and my muscles with show again so I will be cheating on her. My wifes parents and numerous friends say I dont need surgery just moderate my intake. Well I will give you my reasons to have it. I want to look like me again, my job depends on my mobilization and ability to enter confined spaces and don a fire suit apparatus, so I can get cleared of sleep apnea,fit in my corvette, so I dont look like a fat guy on a moped when I ride my motorcycle, so I can fit in rides at amusement parks, so my son can look up to me and I can be his role model in continuing an active lifestyle for him. I want to quit hemming my pants because I have to wear a size 40 pants and the shortest size is 34. I could go on but you see That there is numerous reason of why to do this surgery than to not. Sure I can do this 2 week Protein shake thing like a breeze but sooner or later Imma relapse like always. With the sleeves aid I dont think that I will have much choice other than to conform. Tell him you appreciate his concern but I am certain my life will be better with it than live miserably without it. Death is a mere numbers game (null)

Vitamins And Weight Loss?
Capt Derel replied to MariaVSG's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Have you tried taking them at night right before bed? This is what I do to all my Vitamins because I take Synthroid. You aren't supposed to have Iron or zinc within 4 hours of ingesting T4. So I just take everything at night. Maybe someone else who is post op can chime in on taking vitamins at night. (null) -
That takes a Load off many of our shoulders to hear you say that. Just keep us updated day by day please. (null)

Isopukes are the clear liquid Isopure Protein drinks in a glass bottle. I just wish my local gnc's carried the green tea flavor (null)

Thats why I said the general consensus lol. (null)

Alcohol After 6 Weeks Out?
Capt Derel replied to shannonbcaldwell's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ahhh.. No one knows. Mystery to be solved. Maybe since your bodies are in a catabolic state your liver has an increased working load due to the fact that its processing and burning up your body's own fats rather just storing them. Alcohol consumption would increase its load and which may cause harm to the liver itself.. From a doctors perspective- Why create a problem too soon Yay go me (null) -
Well how is it over there? (null)
