Going To Tijuana Sept 26Th! Anyone Else
Cinders replied to Cinders's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Good luck to you too Jordan ! Have a great trip -
Ditto here, I am on day 10 and felt nausious during the first week but it has passed . I also felt dizzy a lot but the Dr said to not do as much physical stuff as I was doing (slow down LOL) I heat with firewood & its wood season so stackin up 10-15 cords was a little much apparently. You will get through the tummy upset, just keep your eyes on the prize !

Lets Get Real! I've Been Reading A "regrets" Thread
Cinders replied to DanaInNewOrleans's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Some great advice & positive inspirations on this post !thanks ! -
Sounds like we are on the same pre-op diet, only mine is 30-40 carbs. While I haven't had chest pains, I have gotten leg cramps & dizzy spells. Hopefully you are right & it is just that godd ol Texas heat but please check with your Dr asap as you don't want anything to come up prior to your surgery

Going To Tijuana Sept 26Th! Anyone Else
Cinders replied to Cinders's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Woohoo! I am nervous too but more excited. What hospital will you be going to? -
Hello BC'ers ! I have opted to have my surgery in Mexico. I am tired of the wait here. Been close to a year & haven't even been called for a consult. My surgery date is Sept 26th and I am very excited to get this jorney started. I am on day 2 of my pre-op diet. Any suggestions & places to go for allowable protein drinks/bars ?
-
I think we all have encountered the "user friendly" people out there. I have let go of the people in my life that I felt fell into this category as I knew they werre not there for me. I can't stand people that use me as a door mat or only call when they "need" something. Sorry, not that gal anymore, even before I have my surgery. At work, I just say , oh, I'm not sure better check with"..." LOL!! User Friendly- no more !!
