Incisions 1 Year Post Op.....
marie110 replied to SleeveandRNYchica's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
mine are looking like bullet wounds.. i have a total of 8 incision due to my prior gallbladder removal. depends on your skin and how you heal.. the darker the skin the more noticeable... but in time it shouldn't be that noticeable. i use aloe vera and mederma it kinds of helps... -
i was told 2weeks.. but i was toooo tired for it anyway so waited much longer...... really depends on how your body is feeling and when your body is ready then enjoy..

Day 4 Post-Op - Some Questions
marie110 replied to abbybeep's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
had same issue .. was unable to hold down even water.. in my case i got dehydrated and ended up in the ER.. to be on the safe side i would get checked right away.. and i agree on the protein main goal right after surgery is staying hydrated drinking water taking in fluids ... so def call your doctor.. I'm 4 weeks out and eventually it will stay down.. baby steps baby steps.. good luck -

Please Dont Judge - Yes Or No Is Fine
marie110 replied to Looking Ahead's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
no, please no.. smoking is not good for you period with or without sleeve.. its just bad doesn't help in anyway.. if you need a release turn to something else.. i found it very helpful to go out with good friends catch a movie a show ... just keep busy distract yourself with other things don't turn to smoking.. some ideas.. photo albums scrapbooking photography arts n krafts just anything you enjoy.. good luck.. -

I Want To Cry... :(
marie110 replied to gelen's_change's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
dont cry.. i had to wait for insurance approval for 5 months even though i already met all the requirements.. so look into that as well.. ask your insurance if after your weigh ins do you have any other waiting period. but look at it this way in these 6 months you can start preparing .. and maybe by the time your surgery is here you will have even less to loose.. time really will go by fast keep busy and continue your research and visit us here often for info support and updates.
