Need Buddies & Mentors feeling alone
ibehere10 replied to Pink Butterfly's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi pink, my fitness pal is a great web site and app for smart phones! It is a way to track your daily food/calories/protein etc. I love it and it helps keep me on track. If you have a smart phone just search my fitness pal or go to the web site myfitnesspal.com. You can add friends to your name. My name is the same as on here. Ibehere10! -
Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call
ibehere10 replied to newgrandmother's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi all, nice to see so many Sept ladies on here!! I was 9/10 and doing well . I have done pretty good over the holidays, so far ! As another gal posted , I fill up on protein to avoid letting my sweet tooth dictate what I eat! Only sweets I have had is the sugar free pumpkin pie without eating the crust! Just a couple of teaspoon fulls satisfy me. I truly hope each of you have a wonderful year ahead!! For anyone using My fitness pal my name is "ibehere10". Thanks for the support and for frequently lifting my spirits!! -

That is great!! -
Hi Maurice, welcome and congrats on your sleeve. I had surgery on 9/10/12 and still have to take small amounts of fluid or I get pain and feel nauseous . Some people seem to be able to gulp quickly, hang in it will get better!!

It is frustrating that every doc and nut have such varied interpretations of the various diet. All I know is that I followed what my doc and nut have told me and I am doing well with the loss in lbs and inches!! Congrats on your sleeve!!!!!!
-
I have found that when Ian not losing lbs I am losing inches. Have gone from a jean size of 22/24 to 16/18 depending on the brand. Have never felt better in my life. When I do feel down I take a picture of myself and compare to the pics taken shortly before surgery in Sept and that fixes my blues!!!!!

Congrats!!

Finally! I'm post op (barely)

Congrats!!! -
I am RH negative , doc never mentioned it nor has any of the other surgeons who have operated on me. Only issue for RH negative women can be with childbirth and the problem is not necessarily for the Mommy but for the baby if the baby is positive. I believe that is the issue anyway

Congrats !!!

3 days post op and NO energy!
ibehere10 replied to ShrinkingMama's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was wiped out the first two weeks. We have to remember that it is MAJOR surgery and your body has been traumatized. Get your fluids in and allow yourself time to heal, everything else can wait!! This is your time!!!
