Wearing a Binder?
SouthernSleever replied to mamasez's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ewww don't wear that! Your wounds need fresh air and to heal. No reason for it! -
OMG I want a beer!
SouthernSleever replied to pasquini's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Mmmm beer is good, just makes you burp way much more after being sleeved. I suppose that's okay for a guy but ya know ... I try to stick to vodka/cranberry -

Congrats on being single! Single + skinny = FUN! Sorry you are dealing with a break up and a STALL! Ugh! The stall will go away, I stall and have since 3 months post op, for every 3 weeks out of a month. Keep your head up! -

Email Nina and she will give you some great ideas. I can't remember what I ate during that stage but I know I would strain a bunch of soups. -

Let me know how it goes. I started smoking about 8 months post op...again.... going to kick it on Nov 1st...again You CAN do this! -
October 8th was my 1 year sleeve anniversary so I just wanted to respond and give you all a little update. Next year at this time you will be so skinny! Keep on keeping on your plans! Almonds are great to have as are cheese. I keep a little package of almonds in my purse along with beef jerky. Stalls will happen to the previous poster. Dont' up your calories just keep on keeping on! I stall 3 weeks a month then lose about 5lbs in one week. You will get there. THIS WILL WORK!

when is it ok to drink alchohol?
SouthernSleever replied to suez383's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had some wine about 2 months out. No big deal. Don't over do it and be aware that you will get drunk fast with your sleeve. I've blacked out once and passed out another time. You have to be very careful. Both those episodes were way over 6 months out and had to do with drinking too much too fast. -
Get the copper IUD. I can't have the horomones since I had a bloodclot in 03, and I think that's why they want you off the one you have now. The copper one I still have periods and sometimes they can be heavy but it's no big deal and I LURVE my IUD! BTW From what I've heard the hormones work locally not systemically meaning it doesn't get into your blood stream to affect bloodclots. My Dr didn't seem to agree but ask yours why you can't have it and mention what I just said.

Popcorn safe to eat?
SouthernSleever replied to Estrellita's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The kernels can get stuck in your suture or staple line which is why it's a no no until 3 months. I'd wait on popcorn and pomgrantes. -

SouthernSleever replied to SouthernSleever's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Thanks everyone! Less than an hour left. Apparently goldfish pumpkin has been offering 4 paid subscriptions to a website for ppl to vote for him. No wonder he jumped from 50 votes to now in the lead. I'm only about 10 behind though -

would seriously give almost ANYTHING for a .....
SouthernSleever replied to Sunny702's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If you are told by your Dr not to have it then dont but I was able to have a couple sips of pop after a month. I don't buy it and bring it home though, I'm afraid I would slip back into old habits.
