Wow..that's scary! Glad you took the signs seriously & followed thru! Good luck! -
Just had the easiest, yummiest meal! Took about 3-4 Oz of rotisserie chicken chopped, a handful of fresh spinach & 3 cherry tomatoes & sauted for a few minutes in EVO! Around 150 calories & 28g of protein! Easy & yummy! (must confess, my dogs helped me finish the chicken!) lol

Graduation question
Takingcontrol replied to chitowngirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree with newat52 said...it's for the others too...the ones that have supported you through the process! When I got my ADN, I walked for my family because I was the only college graduate! With my BSN & MSN it was in support of my fellow classmates! Now...my girls do tell me if/when I finish my PhD they refuse to go to yet another of my graduations...but we will see!! Lol :-P -
Oh wow! Keep us posted!

Graduation question
Takingcontrol replied to chitowngirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did, I graduated with my BS degree in August (earlier then the students I was attending with) & went back the next May to walk with my friends that I had made during the program. I really didn't want to either, but they all wanted me to...after it was all said & done I was glad I did! -

HI IM NEW AND NEED HELP!
Takingcontrol replied to MRS.BYARS's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
It depends on if your self pay or insurance. Self pay is usually pretty quick, insurance...well, it just depends on your ins requirements! You WILL lose weight...there's no way you can't! Now...how much depends on how will you follow your dr's advice. Remember..the sleeve is just a tool, you have to use it as such! Good luck! -

How long does pain last
Takingcontrol replied to Skinnydenise's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
The pain meds slow things down, not unusual to not have BM for awhile..ur not really eating! Can't help with the pain...I had very little, but I would think would resolve soon. Good luck! -
