SoonToBeThinKAT

Fiddleman that's exactly what I thought! I have never heard of it before but can't imagine putting coca cola up there!

Ok so just an update on what the Dr's office said...full dose of miralax 4x a day and 2 colace morning and night and if not relieved by tomorrow to do an enema. If that doesn't work then she mentioned a Coca-Cola enema??? Wtf! She said it's an enema with flat coke.

I went out and bought some miralax and if there are no results by tomorrow morning then I'm calling the dr office when they open. I didn't worry too much when a week went by and even 2 weeks bc I had gone 2 weeks every other time but now that I'm 2 1/2 weeks its started to concern me. I will let everyone know what he says tomorrow if no results from the miralax.

That is what I'm afraid of happening. I have an appointment with the surgeon next week and I plan on brining it up. Hopefully it's not that. Thanks!

Yeah when I go it's normal. Well it has been in the past anyways.

I don't know why I didn't even think about chewable fiber! I will definitely pick some up today. Yes I am getting in my fluids. It's just weird it's like I have nothing in me lol

Was sleeved on 9/19 and started out at 262 and today I am 220. So that is 42lbs in about six weeks. I have stalled some which frustrated me and my weight loss has completely slowed down these last 2 weeks. However I am seeing the results of the weight loss but not necessarily in a good way. Don't get me wrong I am so happy with the loss but I am so disgusted with where I got myself to and now that I can see the loose skin especially on my inner thighs. When I started this whole process I didn't think about the changes I would see before I got to my goal weight and yes I expected loose skin at that point and had actually started to prepare myself for a full body lift but I just can't even look at myself in the mirror without critizing every part of me. My husband is so supportive and keeps saying once I start working out to fix the loose skin and that he doesn't really notice it. Sometimes I think he says it because he has to. I know the sleeve is not a quick fix and I am completely committed to using the tool appropriately but I just don't like what I look like until then. Just a rant thanks for listening.

I have gone thru some of the threads for September I think I'm the only one scheduled on 9/21. Anyone else out there getting sleeved with me?

I get hungry but I just.don't even feel like eating. Some things sound great to me but the thought of eating whatever.sounds good just disgust me:(

at my heaviest 5 weeks out taken today

Thanks Everyone!

Thanks! Its hard for me to see it but ny husband says there is definitely a noticed. I started day of surgery at 262 and as of this morning 226 i have stalled for a week so hopefully i start losing again.

I have seen a difference in my sleep pattern. Im now usually in bed by 7-8pm and sleep 12 hours but wake up frequently thru the night and i even take naps during the day. Before surgery i went to bed at about 11 and woke up at about 6:30 am.

Ok so I just got a call from the patient cord at the dr office and eveything has been approved. They just sent my info to the insurance company on Wednesday and I already have approval. My surgery date is September 21! This is all really real now!

I am almost 1 month and a week out and still constantly nauseous. I can't take it anymore. Anything I put in my mouth causes my stomach to churn. I am on motion sickness patch and ativan for nausea and no luck:( hopefully it ends soon

It sounds like we are in the same boat. I'm still out of work because of it:(

I know each person is going to be different but I also thought you would be able to notice jt in your face. My face seems as fat as ever but my.clothes is loose. Just waiting for my face to think out some

Ok so I am having a serious craving for a sonic shake:( sugar free fudge pops aren't doing it for me anymore:( and when I say craving I mean I'm ready for jump in the car and drive there now ugh! It really sucks being 4 1/2 weeks out and still on a liquid diet!

I am really waiting for it to be gone from my face and neck. bc of.a condition I have I had to rake a a lot I'd steroids which causes "chipmunk" face so hopefully that goes away
