hi there!!! are there really gay people here?!?!?!?
rdoactv replied to anninva's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I think its cuz being GLBT has so little to do with our journey on this site. I know for me, this thread is an afterthought. Im usually looking at others more specific to the surgery. But it's nice to pop in here from time to time and see how everyone here is doing. -
Dr. Kellys staff change..
rdoactv replied to rdoactv's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Thanks DD. Congrats on your success. I expect to be a slow loser. I'm 5'0. And a bmi of 39. I feel good about my decision to have Dr. Kelly perform surgery. Guess I was just hoping someone had had a recent experience with the new staff. I know Omar was very personable (I prefer that personal touch. I guess) and good at what he did. Hoping the experience in its entirety is as good as others I've read. -
IMHO..anything that offers a full body workout by just standing there and being vibrated is about the same as "take this pill and get a beach body in 30 days while eating what you want"...smile, again..just my opinion.

Maximum Protein For Minimum Quantity?
rdoactv replied to Shape_Shifter's topic in Food and Nutrition
Another idea is Shrimp..highest protein behind Chicken. 3oz shrimp(approx 3-4 medium) = 18 grams protein. Easily packable for work/outings as well. -
Had My Surgery On The 24 Of September 2012
rdoactv replied to sambrooklyn's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Are u taking a B12 sup? Bleeding gums can be an indicator of a deficiency of B12. Try a sub lingual..walmart carries them. -
Measureofme and other upcoming Kelly sleevers, congrats. I'll be looking for your posts. I go 3/28 with Dr. Kelly. I've heard wonderful things and continue to eat up the info when I see other patients. So few post more than a few months out. The Kelly patient bloggers seem to fade out after a couple months. Lol I guess they are too busy enjoying life than to sit at a computer posting. Who can blame them? Good luck to you.

Amytug, I've noticed the same trend with the surgeons. I trird posting a sx date, starting wt,surgeon question before trying to gauge wt loss/time. It seems Almanza,Garcia pts lose faster. Im going to Kelly but I think his pts lose slower. He uses a 36. The others use a 32. Don't know if this is the reason, or if its truly pt related. The size of bougie difference is minimal but I wonder if it still plays a role.

Fresh market carries a great selection of dried veggies..green beans are my fave, beets, zucchini, carrot slices and many others. You purchase them by weight. But doing your own sounds like a great idea. You know what's in it for sure then. Hmm, thinking I may try this too. : )
