100% yes- with no question or hesitation. -
How long was your hospital stay?
boatdays replied to LittleDooker's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Surgery Monday 9am, no complications. Released on Thursday at 5pm. -
I have some, work hard at working out. I am only 4+ mos out and I am told it will continue to tone for up to 2 years after surgery. I'd trade some loose skin for being 60+ lbs heavier! I do weight training, yoga, running/walking and some cardio classes- I TRY to worn out each day of the week. Good Luck!

I drank at 10 weeks out, with no complications. My doctor told me I am ok. Just watch empty calories, ulcers and transfer of addiction (food for alcohol) I drink seldomly during a given month with no problems. Lots of people have their own thoughts on this- and it can be a touchy subject. I drink beer and cider, not liquor- I don't like it.

I am 4 months out and getting in protein and yet I am losing my hair like crazy, as in I am getting concerned, and it looks terrible. I had very thick hair to begin. When will it subside? -

I am January and close to your loss total. The good thing for us is our skin. Losing slower allows it to keep up. Good luck! -

Surgery on monday! Any last minute advice?
boatdays replied to BriDawn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh and regarding gum. I chewed some day 4 after surgery and accidents swallowed. Called my surgeon in a panic ad he assured me I would be just fine- and I was. I pretty much chew gum every day, with no issues. Today actually marks 3 mos. for me exactly. -
Surgery on monday! Any last minute advice?
boatdays replied to BriDawn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The hospital will have everything you need. I'd suggest bringing your robe to keep you more covered and warm when walking the halls. I walked them over and over at all hours of the day/night. Good Luck to you! -
Clothes - clothes and more clothes
boatdays replied to mokee's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Congrats to you! Just last week I too was able to move from the Women's World Section at the store to the regular misses. I was over the moon happy! Keep up the good work! -
I only told one person, my mom. I am down 47 lbs in just under 3 mos. I say diet and exercise. Which is the truth. Good Luck!

Any one regret having surgery or not get the results they wanted?
boatdays replied to beachblondeee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Not one single regret. So happy I had this done. A lot of work pre-op and I will work on this the rest of my life- so worth it. Good luck to all of those considering the surgery. -
Surgery Monday 9am and released Thursday 5pm. No complications other than nausea I was working to get under control.

How long we're you out of work?

Surgery on Monday morning and back to work the following Monday. Professional job- at desk seeing appointments. The amount of time was perfect! Not too little, not too much. -
January sleevers......what's your weight loss so far?
boatdays replied to pottergirl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
January 21 surgery Down -47 -
Hi- curious to know people's experience with drinking alcohol after sleeve surgery. Does anyone know if cider has a lot of carbonation? Can I damage my sleeve? Stretch it out? I won't have several drinks- just 1-2 socially for a friends birthday.
-
Hello my January 21st friends! Can you please tell me what a typical day of liquids, food and protein looks like for you? Quantities you are consuming and times of day. Thanks so much!

You look just beautiful! I see your loss. Keep up the great work! -
How much food can you eat?
boatdays replied to dixiejuju's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Some meals I am done in a couple bites. Other meals I can eat more. I have consumed too much on a handful of occasions and I have thrown up. It's a delicate balance. -
Not happy with this before and after pic
boatdays replied to leighleigh's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am finding the people we see often (every day at work) are seeing less of a loss. I met friends today for lunch and they had not seen me in a couple months and they definitely noticed.
