Week 2 Post Op, Should I Start Shopping?
atkinsoncl replied to anniew's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree w/ pdxman! Don't spend a fortune on clothes that aren't going to fit you in 2 weeks. If you see something that really catches your eye, buy it, but I wouldn't go overboard. I know, it's easier said than done! Shopping is going to be so much fun . -
Excellent!! Glad you are doing well! Wednesday is right around the corner.
-
Oh, I know! When I got it done, I literally thought "what did I just do to myself." I thought that for a few days, but trust me it does get easier. Two weeks out today and I feel great! Hang in there! Hope you feel better soon!

Stomach Cramps! Help!
atkinsoncl replied to arj1016's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh no, sorry to hear about that! Take care of yourself and keep us posted! -
I've been getting the hiccups frequently and I'm 2 weeks postop. Does anybody know why or how I can try to prevent them? Am I eating or drinking too fast? It's almost embarressing! I'm sitting in my daughter's parent/teacher conference and wouldn't you know it, along come the hiccups. Thanks!

Stomach Cramps! Help!
atkinsoncl replied to arj1016's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did! I tried to drink coffee on Sunday. I started with crampy stomach and then diarrhea. Maybe you should go to your Dr. if it's really bad. You don't want to let it go. -

Length Of Stay In Hospital?
atkinsoncl commented on sugarbear6281's blog entry in Sugarbear6281's Blog
I was only in the hospital one night. I was a little worried to go home so soon, but once I got home, it felt great! -
I agree with Cheri, get checked out by the doctor. You could also have been allergic to something they used in surgery. For instance, I was allergice to the glue they used on my incisions . . . that made my stomach very itchy.

My Surgery Is The Day After Tomorrow. Oh My!
atkinsoncl replied to Felicity549's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Best of luck to both of you! I only took a book, change of clothes for discharge, and toiletries. The less the better. I didn't pick up the book once. I slept for most of the time, if not sleeping, I was walking. Good luck and keep us posted! -
Best of luck today!! I will be thinking of you!

I took pictures of myself with yoga type pants and just my bra. Didn't like the way it looked, but felt like I needed to do it.

Where Are My April 2012 Sleevers?
atkinsoncl replied to JimmyGotSLEEVED's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Love your quote about your ankles! Wow, 100 grams of protein . . . I need to eat between 60-75 grams. I drink about 64 ozs. Always have to take water up to bed with me, which leads to frequent bathroom trips. -
Best of luck to you tomorrow!! Please keep us posted!!

Can't Believe I Just Ate All Of That!
atkinsoncl replied to jiggyjen1982@yahoo.com's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oooo, sounds yummy!! I should get to my mushy stage today after my preop appt. I think I'm going to get some to bring home. -
Can't wait to try it! How long did you have to wait to do pureed stage? I remember telling my nutrionist that I didn't want to do the pureed stage, now I'm excited to start it .

Hi! Yes, there have been pretty many that have been sleeved already. I was sleeved on April 4. Congrats on your surgery date. That's great that you are doing the buddy system. What great support you both will have. -
Thanks so much for sharing this! I bookmarked the website for my puree stage next week. Can't wait to try the recipes!
