Thanks I guess I need to figure out before someone reports me to hipaa any ideas how?

It's a mds name

First of all no patients names are on it so tell me how second thanks for the compliment.

3 months out (just about) down 66 pounds ... Yay but literally losing my hair in handfuls. I have fine/ thin hair as it is an now there is a definite bald spot on the top of my head. Using biotin, b12 taking in protein and multivitamin what else? I know sometimes it's inevitable but any other recommendations? Thanks!

Ugh I know it stinks I'm getting married in less than 6 months too!!!

Can you say yum??? Ordered Bari wise hot chocolate from bariatric choice and it is delish, about 80cal no fat less than 5gm carbs and 15grams protein!! I miss my coffee and hot chocolate this time of year and this really hits the spot!! I purchased a few of the variety packs (about $11) for 7 and love the mint and raspberry chocolate trying the amaretto and its yummy too!

Awesome job ladies, I have lost 54lbs including the 13 on pre op so 41 sine surgery! Yay!

Anyone else having this problem... I was cleared 2 weeks ago for just about anything besides pasta bread corn ect. So trial and error but I have been throwing up at least one meal every other day or so. It just sits there in my throat. Ugh so horrible

I want in too! Need some motivation... Weight before 2 week pre op diet: 294 Surgery date weight (9/11/12) : 281 Current weight: 244 New Years goal weight: 225 Not sure if I am over or under realistically buy we shall see!

Well just under (9/11) and 50lbs down!!!!

Looking into buying a variety pack, have tried eas protein shakes and unjury and getting a bit tired... What's your favorite flavor and why?

I have a iud and love it

Get GasX strips they work great

Still on shakes and clears for me.. Can move to mushy food October 1st.... Can't wait. Was sleeved on 9/11. Definitely getting sick of these shakes

Orange county New York

Dr Weiss in oc ny? He did my surgery and it was great! Good luck!

I have one between my breasts on my upper abdomen and 4 across my belly button with the largest right above it.... None hurt great placing!

I can't get rid of this head hunger did a 2 week only shakes pre op diet was sleeved 9/11 and did clears (no broth or jello) for 5 days now I'm on that plus 3 protein shakes a day and I'm coming to a wall. I neeeeed to chew on something I would love broth or something full liquid but it's not allowed per my md. Help! All I think about is food and eating I feel like it consumes my day. I can't stand the shakes anymore just thinking about them makes me sick (and I have had no nausea ) and am sick of sipping. Any suggestions?

No gum no creamed soups. I am definitely trying to get the shakes down wish I had something else too.

No jello at all... Sucks huh

Hey everyone! I was sleeved the 11th and besides a bit tired I am feeling great. The day of surgery I was really wiped from the anesthesia I remember looking at the clock at 1120 right before I went under and didn't wake up till 2. Eeek needless to say I'm sensitive to meds. The docs and nurses were amazing even the nurses aids I couldn't have asked for better care. They knew I was a RN so maybe I was treated a bit different but I felt like I was cared for by friends. I am on only protein shakes for 2 more weeks ugh what I would do for an egg or soup but not allowed to have anything but those clear sf fluids and sf ice pops no red or purple. Not much excitement! Lol

I am a nurse as well as was sleeved on the 11th also and I am beat. Taking a shower and getting dressed wears me out. I didn't feel like this post op at all maye a day while my body adjusted but we are recovering. I couldn't imagine going back to work yet even just a 'desk job' I can't even think half the time lol. I feel your pain hun.

I was sleeved 9/11 they aren't bad like Charlie Horse when your pregnant cramps but if I sit too long and get up I do feel tightness in my calves not a clot just dehydrated a bit and lack of Calcium and other electrolytes

I had my surgery 9/11 so I'm 4 days out trying to get all my liquids in but I'm sooooo tired. Help! I take a shower and that wipes me out completely. Besides the tiredness and weakness I'm feeling fine!

Surgery for 945 tomorrow still need to pack a bag (can throw it together quick in an right?) get my daughter ready for school and go!!! Yikes can't believe it's already here... Think skinny!!
