Re: Last time I checked, this was the "Man Room"
Ms.AntiBand posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Since not everyone can respond to the topic where it stands... I'm guessing that most responses in the man/woman rooms are without noticing that the post was in a restricted area. I admit I am one who only reads the title of the posts and never the category it's located in. So, please forgive us if we accidentally respond to something in the wrong room. Just a kind reminder is needed and I'm it's easy to delete. -
Surgeon trying to talk me into band.
Ms.AntiBand replied to bigbeauty78's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree. Your dr is pushing the band for his own reasons and not because it's the best WLS for you. Many people have gone miles just to to find the perfect dr that fits with their needs and it looks like you should also. -
SO does you fat giggle like JELL-O now?
Ms.AntiBand replied to nursesettie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
LOL.. Laura you're such a post killer On a side note..I don't know what the OP posted other than her title because it's blank.. Why is that? Is her font white? -
Lucky you .. I can only wish for something like this with insurance approval. Congrats to you

Ms.AntiBand replied to nursesettie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yep, I'm getting to where I don't have any fat BUT.. That dang skin that's still hangin' around goes every which way but with me. Luckily I'm not much of a skin shower anyway and I'm able to wrangle it in with tight fitting clothes ;D -

Ms.AntiBand replied to bigbeauty78's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Shame on this surgeon. I can assure you the band I not the way to go. Check my story in my profile. If this surgeon pushes the band it means he's not experienced enough to perform your sleeve. GO ELSE WHERE! He's too new to the procedure and him pushing the band says it all. -
3 weeks out and I can't stop eating!
Ms.AntiBand replied to vsginkc's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I pre-op ate myself sick of food. Ate everything in sight and gained 10 pounds. I hated even the thought of food so I started my pre-op diet early and never had a problem. -
Woohoo, who else discovered via VST inbox that they are now a millionairess from a long lost aunt in Benin?

Lucky you.. All my relatives want money ;D -
Last I heard it was 6 mos post op and 500+ comments? But.. Who knows..?

People around here have been banned for their behavior.. Many times. Is that what you're asking? I don't know anything about the chat room.. I thought that was gone

Ms.AntiBand replied to Ms.AntiBand's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
There are quite a few nongender posters that could get away with responding on both. Nothing states that we have to specify gender or post a profile pic. Heh.. I'm pretty sure my comments would give me away though -
Hahaha.. I never noticed the dot rank before

Congrats.. What a great feeling it is to achieve some goals.

I was way into my 6th month before I noticed any real loss?. But some gets to be that wee bitty % that doesn't lose
-
Yep, pretty much everyone does. Those who say the don't.. Are kidding themselves or out right lying I suppose there's a very very slim chance you may be the .01 % that may not lose any hair, but just prepare for the hair loss and if you don't lose any then great

Anyone have or had Dr. Ortiz? I dont see any mention of his name?
Ms.AntiBand replied to Heather Meyer's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
If you use the search bar there's lots that comes up about him -
Do light weights lose slower?
Ms.AntiBand replied to Bellanthin's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I believe the closer you are to a goal weight or to what your body believes is a good weight.. The slower you lose. I think it's your body's way of saying "I'm hanging on to what I can" -
Yum... I'm drooling now

Actual Down time after Surgery?
Ms.AntiBand replied to ajayb19's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Although everyone recovers differently there isn't any difference in the fact that you SHOULD NOT LIFT ANYTHING MORE THAN 10lbs for a few weeks. I had no down time and was vacationing as soon as I left hospital.. But I knew better than to do any lifting. -
How long was your "3 week stall"?
Ms.AntiBand replied to JessicaAnn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I only weigh myself once a week at the most or sometimes every 2 weeks. I lose a lb here and there, but extremely slow. I'm ok with it.. As long as its less than what I was, I'm happy. I think the closer you are to goal the much harder it is to lose. -

Happy Happy Birthday Lip Lady.. 29 again? I had to give up 29 when my daughter got older than me -
How long was your "3 week stall"?
Ms.AntiBand replied to JessicaAnn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine was a seven week stall.. Or more! I stopped counting and just ignored the time. It slowly started to come off and I tried to be patient and just work with what I was dealt. -
I had a reduction in 2001 at 34EEE down to 34C/D I'm almost at goal and I'm 34C ... Not as perky, but not bad. At least it's wonder brable ;D

On the other hand.. Wouldn't it be nice if this was our greatest worry in life? Yippee... It's Friday
