'Surgery' cards... Notices to resturants that you've had bariatric surgery
loseitsoon replied to dansgem's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a card but I haven't used it yet. I just order what I want and take most of it home or share something with someone. I wrote about the NGT tube on the back of my drivers license with a marker not to insert. -
LEARN A VALUABLE LESSON FROM MY MISTAKES
loseitsoon replied to linda1000's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
My problem this week is a large thrumbosed hemorrhoid which I had to have the blood clots removed. I am in even more pain than before and bleeding most of the day. I was regular but not getting enough liquids in. I think this makes you strain more than you should. So everyone make sure you take a stool softener everyday and somekind of fiber and drink lots of water and you won't get an impacted bowel or a thrombosed hemorrhoid. -
It seems like I spend all day either eating or drinking. By 8:00 at night I still haven't eaten enough protein or calories so I am stuffing in another protein drink or bar maybe a piece of cheese before I go to bed. If I don't eat at lease 900 calories I wake up in the middle of the night hungery.

Allergic Reaction?
loseitsoon replied to hope4health's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I had a rash like this after surgey. It lasted 7-10 days and then went away. My doctors weren't concerned about it. -
I take one potassium pill everyday and my levels are perfect according to my blood work.
-
At 4 months out I am eating about 2-3 dense protein at a time. I try to get in about 900 calories a day and 80 proteins.

Does hunger come back?
loseitsoon replied to Toyaboo22's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 4 months out and I will wake up in the middle of the night hungry if I don't eat dense protein before I go to bed. This seems to help as I don't want to start getting up and eating in the middle of the night! -
Jan 9 and now down 54lbs!

My doctor let me golf after 4 weeks.

I'm going to go in one month. I will be 5 months out by then. I am hoping to share meals and leave most of mine on the plate. If I was one month out I think I would bring a lot of food with me and maybe a blender. It would be worth the extra cost of checking a bag.

I had boxes of smaller clothes in my basement. I am down to my smallest and will be so happy when I can buy new clothes in a size I've never worn before. It should be soon!

Has anyone gotten hives 4 months out? I got them right after my surgery and now I have them again I just can't figure out why. They are very itchy.
-
I was never able to get enough liquids in until I started using a straw at 3 months out. I am now able to get all the liquids I need in with no problem!
