Nicolanz replied to ajeeprider's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions

Anyone else considering sleeve with BMI ~32
Nicolanz replied to highhopes's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Yes! I have a bmi of 32 or 33 can't remember, but I would have this surgery if I started at this weight. -
Bikini Pic - share yours!
Nicolanz replied to SleeveNZ's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
You look hot! But ummm I don't even look good on a one piece! Maybe one day......I'll just share your excitement for now! -
Well I have two small boys and my happiness level changes by the minute! Haha! Overall, I have nothing to be unhappy about except for constant car issues and gallbladder problems I'm having at the moment. Sometimes I just want to run away and sleep for two days straight! Even with all of that, I'd say my happiness level is around 8. Everyday struggles with the sleeve, eating right, seeing the scale move, not seeing the scale move is all an exciting challenge. I love it! I even appreciate rough days because easy is boring. I love to overcome challenges and I feel like I'm accomplishing something. I'm totally rambling now.....but yea.....I'm pretty happy with my new life!

I was afraid to tell mine too. Once I did she was extremely happy for me and checked my blood. What a relief! -

12 week Transformation challenge for vets
Nicolanz replied to Fiddleman's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
Ok fiddleman, I almost died tonight! I'm more out of shape than when I was 280 pounds! How sad! I gotta get back to a routine! -
I'll bet money she'll lose weight and pick up your healthy habits. Maybe plan some physical activities y'all can get into when you're all healed up!

The divorce rate is incredibly high with or without surgery. She's scared, bottom line. My husband did the same thing. Totally supportive until 4 weeks before surgery. Too late! I had my deposit paid and plane tickets. Plus I was extremely excited for my new life. When I got home he was incredibly happy to see I made it out alive and totally supportive. Matter of fact, he can't keep his hands off of me! Reassure her you'll love her no matter what. If your relationship is strong now, I don't see it changing .....well, maybe for the better. My husband and I are happier than we've ever been. If your wife needs the surgery too maybe y'all can get that ball rolling as well. Good luck!

You lost me at HIIT and crossfit and PT. I don't know what any of that means! Haha! -
So sorry you're going through a rough time, Jane. Life happens and we can't be on point all the time. Don't be hard on yourself. You got this! Again, so sorry for your loss.

Ladies: How many of you pre-surgery got the "Are you pregnant" question?
Nicolanz replied to GirlOnFire's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I never ask even when someone is obviously pregnant. Goodness, it's probably just as embarrassing for the asker!!! I've never been asked that not even when I was. I'm fat all over. No area is fatter than the next! Haha. -
Well eating pureed food is scary haha!!!

How are you all getting your vitamins in?
Nicolanz replied to princesstia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I only take a multivitamin. I got my blood work done and everything is perfect. I'm thinking you don't need all that!
