Val212 I was sleeved by Dr Bacal August 2012. He is wonderful not to mention his entire staff is so accommodating. I had some complications but he kept me informed every step of the way. I actually miss the newness of being sleeved. He's going to perform a panniculectomy on me in a month to remove some excess skin. Good luck, take it all in and enjoy your new reign on life!

What Are Your Thoughts About Healthy Frozen Meals?
angel313 replied to TheNEWME!'s topic in Food and Nutrition
I tried eating smart ones for lunch for about two weeks. I lost the least amount of weight those weeks. My protein was down and carbs were up and I wasn't even eating a full meal. I no longer eat them. Instead I just eat a piece of cooked chicken or fish with a veggie -
Happy camper - I think it is for one but I'd have to look on their site because the balls I made are small so I don't think they are that high. Plus their recipe called for reduced fat creamy peanut butter and I use natural. I'd say mine are 1/2 or 3/4 the calories. Enjoy!

I'm 3.5 months out and clumps at a time come out. My doctor said its completely normal. He states our bodies are shedding cells and that includes hair cells. It will slow down. I cut 6" off so it won't pull so hard on my scalp and I've added highlights to give dimension so you can see any thinning spots. Good luck!

Miralax is amazing and it has no taste. Mix it in with anything liquid. It helps loosen stool.

Stomach Dent And Bad Inscision Pain?
angel313 replied to Fallenangel2904's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Pain is very common and so is the dent. I am 3 months out. My doctor said to massage the dented area(s) in a warm shower and eventually they went away (I had 2). Use your pain meds as needed and prop your belly with soft pillows or roll a blanket just to support it if you want to sleep on your side. It took me a couple weeks before I was comfortable enough to sleep on my side. I ended up pulling a muscle by trying too soon. Good luck! -
What Vitamins Are You Taking?
angel313 replied to Summer-smile's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
2 Celebrate multi vit, Celebrate vitamin D 5000 IU, 4 bariatric advantage calcium citrate chews, bariatric advantage iron 30mg, Natures bounty vitamin b12 sublingual 2500mg. Just remember calcium and iron can not be taken at same time. I hated taking them at first now I have a system down and actually like them. I'm 3 months out. -
Lets Talk Coffee
angel313 replied to PerfectlyImperfect's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If I want to treat myself to the taste of coffee I order decaf. For example at SB and DD I order non fat decaf sugar free lattes. Since I haven't had caffeine or pure sugar in forever I can't taste a big difference. I HATE drinking my calories but I only have it once or twice a month. If you have a smart phone download the Starbucks app and you can create your own drink and it will calculate the nutritional value. Helps to see 250+ calories to make you curb your desire for it. -

They are discouraged because of the high acidity. High acid foods cause reflux.

Hair Loss After Surgery
angel313 replied to RoseNP's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@Fiddleman I am 3 months out and just started losing my hair. I was in tears. Dozens and dozens of strands at a time. Seems as if you are getting a ton of protein. How are you getting all of that in a day? On a good day I can only scrape down 60grams. I can also only take in about 500-600 cal a day.
