weight loss pills after surgery
Ms.AntiBand replied to ramirelek's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Nope. I took so many drugs to aid my weight loss over all the years that I'm DONE abusing my body. Funny, now that I'm doing it the healthy way ... It seems to be working -
Any issues with using US $ in TJ?
Ms.AntiBand replied to tesser85's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
No problem at all. Just don't offer more than $10 bills. If its something that costs a lot then yes larger bills are ok. -
My Dumping Syndrome horror story (read if you dare)
Ms.AntiBand replied to HatheryOnHerWay's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Oh my... Thank God for loving husbands. -
They do.. You're just not at the right donut place! Thank goodness, huh?

Yes.. Many enablers here don't realize that just because something works (temporarily) doesn't mean it's the right thing to share. The wrong path is not the lifelong path anyone here needs to be guided to.

Hair is getting to thick.. Anyone else ?
Ms.AntiBand replied to MariaL1981's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My hair also went thicker than normal thick until about 4 months out and then my bathroom started looking like the sheep shearer came through. I tried ignoring it, then I worried, then I panicked, and then I gave up worrying and I'm 6 months out and it's slowing.. Or I'm just good at denial -
Best bet is to search complications and leaks and you'll find some references of others who have had leaks

TOTAL DISBELIEF
Ms.AntiBand replied to NeverBeTheSameAgain's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ok, so you're going to think we're all a bunch of weeping saps.. But ya got me teared up too! Soooo happy for you! If I could dance I would do a dance for ya.. But I can't .. Trust me. If I could hold a tune that wouldn't start the neighboring coyotes howling I'd sing a song for ya, but I can't ..trust me. Sooo you'll have to settle for a OMG.. CONGRATS! -
Are the carb/calorie free? I'm always looking for something cheaper

Post-Op Care and Surgical Records?
Ms.AntiBand replied to Canary Diamond's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
This isn't something most MX surgeons provide. They do provide ( well, mine did,) with a video of the surgery and a pic of my removed stomach. They don't take X-rays. They do a bariatric scan for leaks but not X-rays you can take home -
Post-Op Care and Surgical Records?
Ms.AntiBand replied to Canary Diamond's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Ok. Ask the MX surgeon you're considering and if not.. Move on to another dr. -
Post-Op Care and Surgical Records?
Ms.AntiBand replied to Canary Diamond's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
When ever I had complications from WLS and had to have urgent care they did not need any records. They do all the X-rays and exams you need if you have issues. -
I will, maybe, have a bite or two after I reach my goal. Until then I'd like to stay away from the processed sugar and ****.. ;D

What a sad sad little person. -
Comparison Chart/graph on Mexico Drs.. anyone?
Ms.AntiBand replied to Tris's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I would never go with a public generated chart. Too much BS and commercialism would ruin the outcome. You can only count on your own research not others word of mouth. After you narrow it down you have to talk one on one with other patients including on the phone or in person if you are near one another. Don't count on hear-say or community charts.. How could they be real? It's the Internet -
I went to Trophey Cupcakes, the ultimate Seattle cupcake shoppe, to get my boss a birthday cupcake and OMG.. They have piña colada cupcakes!?!? WTH...? I had to wait for my order and I swear I kept my eye on one piña colada cupcake, and if it moved a fraction of an inch.. I would have devoured the entire section. Sad thing is.. I wasn't hungry, I just knew the sucker had to taste heavenly!

I want to ride my bicycle, i want to ride my bike...
Ms.AntiBand replied to karpouzian's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Heh.. When I first started reading this thread I imagined all sorts of seat shapes. Like those massage seats they set your face in.. Ok, sorry lol! But a good note.. Get my bike from the shop today! YIPPEE!!! -
Why I am so constipated Surgery Jun 10th
Ms.AntiBand replied to bashmom's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Exactly.. You aren't eating so don't expect to eliminate much. Also, don't forget that pain meds REALLY mess with BM's -
Info on the Marriott, please?

lets be honest, 1 week post op
Ms.AntiBand replied to erikahdz2005's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have to admit because I didn't have anything physically to remind me that I just had VSG, not pain, no energy loss, NOTHING, I had to try really hard to remember I was on a post-op liquid diet. Plus, it was Christmas. I found myself picking up Xmas treats and putting them in my mouth! Of course I ended up spitting it out. Nothing is worth WLS complications. Been there, done that, and never again -
