I hAve osteoarthritis in lower back and neck I am schedule to replace r/ hip 9-17 l/hip10 29 before surgery I was taking a minimum of 10 alieve liqua gels a day I had to stop 20 days before surgery and have not taken one since. I work out min 4 days per week and find I am more sore if I miss than if I workout. This has not been all a walk in the park but there can be no testimony with out a test. Keep asking questions and read lots, hopefully the procedure that is right for you will become evident! -
Made A Gross Error In Judgement...
vsginnj replied to Piplula's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
See the little boy eat flan with two spoons! Daddy couldnt do it, so so sweet!! Now I am being accused of eating vicariously through him. Note to flamers And child welfare caseworkers ; he had a age/weight appropriate portion and we left the rest! Btw 8 months ago flan was called Vitamin f at our house! -

This happened to me. I changed my vitamin and split the dose half am&pm, it got better fast.Seems lots of people have this problem with bariatric advantage chewables.

I Ate And It And I Am Not Going To Beat Myself Up!
vsginnj replied to franfaith's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I snack all the time. Even have carbs ,use sugar in my caffeinated coffee and love ice cream . Last week I bought a pound of fudge on the boardwalk mmm it was so tasty!! Ok my method may be harsh but that is how I give it to myself. I respond better to a kick in the butt than a butt pat and forget not everyone needs it like that, I think my original comment was misunderstood and I reacted shamefully. I beg forgiveness to anyone I offended. -

Amazing how co signing behaviors that got us here is seen as support. But suggest exercise and you are a troll. -

Good luck to you too. Thanks. The ins coordinator was as important as the surgeon she really advocated for me!
-
It did . I was sleeved 12/7/11 down 140 lbs !!!!
-
My surgeon has office in Salem and Essex. I used horizon and the ins coordinator was able to give me a surgery date on my initial consult. It left me six weeks for all pre op consults and clearance. They were very adept at working with ins co. I changed from band to sleeve 4 weeks into process and that did not slow things down.you can google search drKarl Strom

Where in nj are you!

Go for a walk about 20 minutes, if you are hungry when you get back feed the tiny monster that lives in your new tiny belly. I bet he only eats a couple tablespoons full ! Seriously,you are probably right about dr thinking you are further out I would call tomorrow and confirm that.

My jeweler soldered two small balls on the inside palm side they are removable and don't damage the ring

You need to have something on hand post op, unjury has a generous return policy that allows for taste! Chicken soup flavored though a little salty was a nice change from most other shakes I was intolerant to cold for several months and lived on that stuff!
