Laparoscopic sleeve after previous csections
Chantel replied to Kristen*'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also had 3 c-sections before VSG. No issues whatsoever. :-) -
I had 82 pounds to lose. I am absolutely happy with my decision. I have a before and during pic in my gallery. :-)

what makes someone looks unhealthy after WLS?
Chantel replied to re14768's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 5'3" and I've lost 62 pounds in just over 6 months. Only the first 30 pounds were "easy". I'm going to have to work even harder for the last 20. I'm not yet in the "heathy" BMI range and I don't think I'm in any danger of losing too much. I started at 212. I do think I look a little bit older (or maybe just closer to my actual age). I have a before and after pic in my gallery, I think. :-) -
The PA at my surgeon's office said calories should be 800 to 1,200. Protein first, then veggies, then a healthy carb if not already full. I try to get anywhere from 60 to 100 grams of protein per day.

I like Quest and Oh Yeah the best by far and the macros are good for both. For Quest, my fav is coconut cashew and for Oh Yeah, I like the cookie dough flavor. :-)

Pain compared to c section?
Chantel replied to fancytiddy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I thought that the pain/discomfort with the sleeve was worse, but I think having a new baby was a really great distraction with my three c-sections. :-) -
Jean - I am also 5'3". :-)

Thank you both so much!

I Want To See Before & After Pics!
Chantel replied to Christina760's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Here's mine. Before and during. Just over 6 months out. :-) -
My doctor recommended it, but my insurance doesn't cover it because they consider it to be "just" a vitamin, not a drug. So, it was too expensive for me to go that route. :-(
