Thank you! I had my sleeve done in Mexico so it's not so easy to ask questions! My plastic surgeon said it was ok but I'm not sure he knows a lot about sleeves.

Hi everyone! I am a year and a half post surgery, I have met my goal weight. The problem is that my breasts have disappeared and what is left looks awful. Long story short I am having a breast augmentation next week. My question is.. The Dr gave me an "all natural" anti-inflamitory, is it safe to take? I know you aren't supposed to have NSAIDs but surely this would be ok?

Any APRIL SLEEVERS? Let me know your progress !
Lauradeh replied to beachblondeee's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My surgery with Dr. Aceves was on April 25. I was 214 the day of surgery now I am 137. I am a completely different person. I am soooo happy that I had it done, I just wish it had been years ago. It makes me mad to think of all the good years I missed out on. -

Swallowing pills post op
Lauradeh replied to cmathews77's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor told me that I could swallow pills 3 months out. He also said that it varied from person to person and if I thought I could do it sooner to go ahead. I crushed mine and took liquids for a month until I couldn't stand it any more. I started swallowing them and haven't had any problems whatsoever. -
I flew to Mexico to have my surgery and had no problems on the flight back, even flew back a day early because I was so bored at the hospital. I went back to work after a week but wish I had waited two. Mostly because I was weak and tired.

I was sleeved on 4/25 and am down 20 lbs. I stalled for 2 weeks but it finally looks like the scale is starting to budge a little. -
I have been counting both as my liquids! Darn, no wonder I've been at a stall for the past 6 days.

This is a silly question, but are Protein shakes considered part of the 64 oz daily? Or are you supposed to drink 64 oz of Water plus the protein shakes?? Seems impossible!
-
The Dr suggested crushing them but I don't know how that's gonna work out. I'm kinda nervous about swallowing them! I haven't had anything solid yet. I guess I could try applesauce, like a baby haha

2 Weeks post op .. how much have you lost?
Lauradeh replied to cynthia t's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved 4/25 6 lbs pre op and 10 lbs post. I haven't lost anything for the last 5 days! I thought the loss would be more than that! -
I am supposed to take the multi, iron, calcium citrate, b12 and zinc every third day for hair loss. There might be one more but I can't think of it right now.

My Dr told me to start taking vitamins and supplements 10 days out. Today is my first day and I got the multivitamin down fine. I tried crushing the others and putting them in my protein drink..... Disgusting!!!!! Any suggestions?
