Yet here you are. I have questions for you - are any of the men complaining about it? Then why is this so important to you? Why is this your business?

HELP PLS--Walking/Running advise for 5 k
DonRodolfo replied to Evolving's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Couch to 5k has been on my mind today. Check out this page, particularly the schedule section towards the middle: http://www.coolrunni...2/2_3/181.shtml I do the mile in about the same time you do but the schedule for training doesn't look too bad. What do you think? -

Bet you didn't know you're the VST Patron Saint of Dumping Syndrome, did you? -
I had an endoscopy years ago unrelated to this surgery. BEST. NAP. EVER. I believe I had to put on a surgical gown, but I remember wearing gym shorts under. I remember it being only a few hours from start to finish. Nothing hurt afterwards and I was a little sad I couldn't have slept longer. I woke refreshed and ready to go.

Waiting to drink after food
DonRodolfo replied to chibabyy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Nope, you're not the only one! It can be done and is something worth conquering. -
Mix it down with a little Water maybe. Personally, I don't care for any Protein shake flavors except chocolate but that's just me.

Loving my sleeve as well. Just got back from Jalapeno Tree, was able to finish off one fajita and fixins wrapped in a corn tortilla and a few chips - I'm so full I want to die!

Burping and farting? 3days post op
DonRodolfo replied to robocop12's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just make sure you're over a toilet the first few weeks when you do. You can't trust farts too soon after surgery TRUST ME! -
Q's about your support group...
DonRodolfo replied to kjordan83's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Methodist Hospital both in Dallas and Mansfield hold monthly support groups, it might be an idea for you to attend one of them to see what they do. I'll be happy to PM you email and phone number of the contact person if you're interested. -

Did you eat grits in post- op?
DonRodolfo replied to CatherineJo's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
For that matter there's some protein in the slice of cold pizza as well! -
chicken broth was great at first, but egg drop soup (no crunchies) saved my sanity during my two-week preop liquid only diet. That and miso soup (strained).

Did you eat grits in post- op?
DonRodolfo replied to CatherineJo's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Grits used to be one of my favorite foods preop, with lots of butter and melted cheese. And a slice of cold pizza (don't ask). I'm gonna go cry now. -

DonRodolfo replied to CatherineJo's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Yes there is - y'all call it "polenta" -
Remember that scene from the Aliens movies when the creature would hatch out of the host? That's sorta what happens when you're sleeved and drink something with carbonation.

<cough>No Protein in grits.</cough> -
Your job while you're recovering is to make sure you're drinking Water constantly. If you're not drinking water, you're working on a Protein shake. a sip every 5 minutes (not joking here) until you're able to get more and more water in per hour.

Just checked, this works on Android phones as well.

Water causing acid reflux
DonRodolfo replied to Uk.honey's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Here in the colonies I'd suggest you get yourself some Powerade or Crystal light to mix with your water. Do those brands exist there or something you can mix it with that doesn't have sugar? -
