I agree with John. I had a half serving of frosted mini wheats with a 1/4 of milk for breakfast one day this week and had to add in a protein shake later in the day to make up for the protein without a ton of calories. I would like to try Kashi though.

I have zero drive 2+ months out and newly inserted with Mirena. Unfortunately my husband has no interest either, so we're more like roommates than husband and wife.

Blood pressure question
auntmissa1 replied to tinahall's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also have not taken bp meds since the day before surgery. I am usually just under 120/80 without meds now. -
If you're able to come to Michigan, my surgeon has performed over 4000 surgeries (bypass, lap band, duodenal switch and sleeve combined). He does amazing work and is known as Dr. Wonderful. :-)

for those of us who've never been not fat..
auntmissa1 replied to avanti's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I have never been thin. I was chunky through grade school and in the high 100's when I graduated high school. That's the last time I remember Onederland. Getting to "overweight" from "morbidly obese" will be a thrill, let alone getting to "normal"! I'm just over 2 months out, down to 257 from 305 (including 2 week pre-op diet). I can't wait to see what the rest if this year brings!! -

Anyone who has had Cigna who had sleeve this year?
auntmissa1 replied to Sydney Lynn Pinckley's topic in Insurance & Financing
I have Cigna and was approved in a week. 40+ BMI and high blood pressure, 3 mos of PCP appts, one nutritionist phone interview, psych eval, and history of morbid obesity documented through old records. Fortunately, easy peasy for me. Good luck!!! -
I just checked the website. It's July 13 and there are 8:30 spots available. I can't do Saturday mornings, so I'm out. Good luck and knock 'em dead to anyone who ends up participating!!

Has anyone gotten sterilized after surgery? I'm over 40 and my husband and I do not want any more little ones. We discussed IUDs but have decided on sterilization. I'm torn between tubal ligation and Essure. Has anyone had tubal implants? Any info is appreciated.
-
Lol...it's all good. It is a frustrating point for many. :-)
-
Actually sterilization or long term birth control is my choice. His intense fear of a vasectomy is something we discussed and I accepted long before we got married. I'm sorry it frustrates you, but every situation is different and it doesn't make my husband an a*****e.

I had a consultation with my OB today and Essure done as an outpatient would be best if I lose more weight, but at my current weight would be surgery instead of vaginally. Going with Mirena for now. And hubs won't snip snip. :-(

I went back to my desk job one week post op. I had a very easy recovery fortunately, but everyone is different.

If they're 22 or smaller, I'll take them. :-)

There is one in Ypsilanti the third Saturday of every month. I haven't been able to attend but hope to. Where in Michigan are you? -
