B Vitamins And Bodily Rejection
Sparky79 replied to Fiddleman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Interesting information. I just had my 3 month labs done and my b12 was high and my b1 was dangerously low. I had to get a shot for the b1. -
I also have UHC and was approved in 3 days.

Well That's That! So Upset Right Now
Sparky79 replied to ShrinkyDinkMe22's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I found out pre-op as well that I have that as well but I was still able to be sleeved. I just have to have an endoscopy every couple of years. -
I tried salads about 7 weeks out and I have tolerated them just fine. Made me very happy!
-
Fingers crossed for you! I was approved by UHC within 3 days.

I also had surgery at Puget Sound Surgical with Dr.Billing. I'm 9 weeks out and have had no issues. The staff there is wonderful! -

How are you doing with raw veggies? I haven't tried any yet. I just started eating lettuce and I am so happy my tummy accepts it. -

My large one is almost healed. Last time I saw the dr he told me I could use neosporin and that really helped it heal alot faster. -

Hi! I was sleeved on 7/18 and have lost 52 lb so far. I am not able to eat much at all but I don't really have any cravings either. No regrets even on those "bad" days. I know this was the best decision for me. -
My tummy still hurts from coughing so much. I have bronchitis and my doctor gave me some codeine cough syrup. It didn't work as well as it has in the past but I found that it worked a little better if I took it after I ate something.
-
Im trying to find a remedy as well. Nyquil isn't doing anything for me and neither is codeine cough syrup. if I get some answers I'll let you know. Hope you feel better soon.

Any July 17Th Sleevers Or Close To That Date
Sparky79 replied to ImprovedDreamerGirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved on the 18th and lost 7 the first week but stalled for the next 2 weeks. Finally started losing again in the last few days. Down a total of 30 total including 1 week pre op diet. I'm not complaining. -
It's almost here! The nerves have finally hit me and I have begun counting down the hours. I'm still super excited just a little nervous. How is everyone else feeling? I can't wait to come back here after surgery and see how everyone is doing! I'm so glad we have this board. The support, encouragement and advice we get from everyone here is amazing! Good Luck to everyone!

I was told by my nutritionist this week that I need to try for 90g. It's not easy. I'm also about 2 1/2 weeks out.
-
Hi All, I was sleeved on the 18th and I can honestly say today is the first day that I find myself struggling. I want to eat lol. I want to eat more than I can. I won't but I want to. Feeling a little bummed... What to you do when you are having a tough day? What helps you get past it?

Have You Ever Wondered...?
Sparky79 replied to TinaMari's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I saw a picture of mine at my 1 week post op visit. It reminded me of a piece of raw meat lol. I saw a bunch of pictures that were taken during my surgery. Not something i'd care to see again. -
Wow. That was a little harsh. It was a harmless question she asked. Yes, I follow my NUT plan but I come here daily to get advice or ideas from people here who are actually going through this.

That's great! Congrats!
