Coffee confusion...need some more experienced advice
chellelynn replied to Tamosy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think it depends on ur surgeon. Mine said coffee was fine after 8 weeks but to try and limit it to 2 cups per day and to continue to drink plenty of water. -
Same here, I'm 10 months post op and pop corn is my nemesis! It's the only thing that I can eat too much of and doesn't bother me! I've had to limit myself because it is so good and goes down so easy! I've lost 180 lbs to date so I do tend to reward myself with it!

Over 400Lbs Gastric Sleeve Success Story
chellelynn replied to jasminem89's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had my vertical Sleeve surgery on 4/10/13 and weighted 464 lbs and today my weight is 305! I couldn't be happier with my results so far! Best decision I've ever made! You will have great results! -
I like the pure protein bars, The EAS Advantage Carb Control protein drinks only have 100 calories and 17 grams of protein and taste great. Light and lively Greek yogurt is really good too and turkey or beef jerky. I find all of these to be a good snack for protein.

Would you have paid without insurance coverage?

I was denied by my insurance and had to pay for my surgery here in Orlando. It cost me $15,000....I am 5 days post op and I know that this journey and a new lease on life is going to be worth every penny spent and I would do it over in a heartbeat! Good luck to everyone! -
