Who Are You?
thinnerdaysahead replied to illgeturhairdid's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
you should be so proud of yourself - this is not a quick fix = people can and do screw this tool up, but I know it will work for you and you will feel so much better about yourself. -
Heading to the hospital!
thinnerdaysahead replied to EllaJo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sounds like you are on your way - yeah you. Hope you sleep well and feel even better tomorrow. -

Thanks for updating us, glad you are home - when you get a chance would love to know how your pain is doing? Did the itching go away? -
Wine? Anyone tried glass after an amount of time

My doctor said no alcohol ever - he said with the sleeve sx, alcohol is very corrosive to the new surgical line and could lead to ulcers if not leaks. -

Who Are You?
thinnerdaysahead replied to illgeturhairdid's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Sounds like you are doing great - I can't wait to be on the other side watching the numbers going down. Are you children supportive - I have a 13 yo and she is only concerned about herself. When I had my pre-op last Friday, she was so bored and just appeared exhausted by the time it took. But, you be proud of yourself and your accomplishments. -

Hi sweetie - I don't think anyone here gets continued attention unless you post new topics on a constant basis. I know your feeling of being invisible. This is a world consumed with youth, being skinny and looking just so. I would love to communicate with you. You can write me anytime - I'm not always on the laptop, but I will answer. -

That place must be awesome. Just think one year from now you will have a whole new you, with new, smaller clothes, etc. and better health. I am looking forward to having more energy. Do you have children? I have one 13 year old daughter - who just explained the purpose of lying - like I was just too stupid to have guessed. -

Gotta get blood pressure down before 6/24 surgery
thinnerdaysahead replied to greygirl903's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Something I do when I get my bp taken - is that I meditate (close my eyes and think peaceful thoughts and go to whatever place that makes me feel calm) - it always works. Also, call your pcp and ask if you can take an additional 10 mg of lisinopril? -
Surgery tomorrow!
thinnerdaysahead replied to Healthier2day1227's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sorry you are miserable - press the button for pain meds and go to sleep. Can you get some ear plugs from anyone? They work magic. You'll be home soon and in your own comfy bed. -

Hey, I'm the 9th too. What part of the country are you in? I live in San Diego, Ca. -

HI OUT THERE - I JUST SPOKE WITH THE PRE-ADMIT RN AND SHE SAYS I WILL BE COMING IN FOR A FITTING FOR THE BINDER I WILL BE WEARING AFTER SURGERY. I'VE READ QUITE A BIT ABOUT PEOPLE HAVE SMALL PILLOWS FOR HOLDING AGAINST THEIR ABDOMEN, BUT NO WORD OF A BINDER. IF ANYONE HAS HAD THIS EXPERIENCE CAN YOU COMMENT? THANKS.
