My consultation is today!
Bronco0605 replied to sbailey1's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I was not sure if your consult was with the surgeon or with a weight management doctor at my center it is two different things sorry if I confused you! I had two appts with the surgeon before my surgery. -

My consultation is today!
Bronco0605 replied to sbailey1's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Is ti your surgical consult? It will be easy! The doctor will talk about the actual surgical process you are interested in , if he or she thinks that is the best one for you, they will review your meds and other medical conditions. In my case the surgeon discussed the need for the egd test and the procedure for that. We did schedule the surgery that day! -
I still struggle with....(fill in the blanks)
Bronco0605 replied to Disabledaccount's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Eating slowly! I hate it! I just want to eat and get on with it! -
I can't seem to figure it out.

Welcome, Sounds like you are doing great! I think we all hate the protein shakes by the time we get to a few weeks post op!

2 months out and I still can't seem to eat slowly enough
Bronco0605 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have always had an issue with eating too fast. I have really worked very hard to slow down before surgery and since. Now though the results of eating fast are very painful yet, I can still not seem to eat slowly enough. I am not sure what to do. -
Poor thing! I am sorry you are dealing with this complicated thing.Sometimes relationships are the hardest thing in life. They give us the biggest rewards and the biggest heartaches. I can't tell you what to do but we are here to listen.

I understand, I was shocked when I looked at my pictures from before. It is not like looking at a stranger but I cannot believe I was that big.

Almost 4 weeks post-op with very little weight loss
Bronco0605 replied to jlosmile's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I tried upping my calories to throw my body a curveball and it worked. Are you getting any carbs? Any fruit? That seemed to help me somewhat too. My body could not function well with out any carbs at all. Some people may disagree with me but I was not losing on essentially no carbs. Also, are you able to use the bathroom regularly that made a huge difference for me. -
Gapapentin and the sleeve
Bronco0605 replied to Busytee's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I have seizures and migraines and gabapentin for both issues. I have lost 64 pounds since the 4th of July. 21 pounds since surgery November 19th. -
week 3 and I'm at a stall already
Bronco0605 replied to kitch101's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This may sound like a weird question but are you able to use the bathroom? I found when i was really stalled I was also really constipated and that seemed to add to the stall issue. About the calories, How many calories are your shakes? How many grams of Protein are you getting? Week three is famous for stalls! Hang in there! -
I am officially a post sleever!
Bronco0605 replied to FitnFabfor2014's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
How are you doing today? Are you able to get in any fluids? I could not get in much early on. My pain was really bad too. i went home on day three but I was really miserable the first week-to ten days. -
Her surgery was in October 2012. You look GORGEOUS!

Omg, I am having dreams about cheating on my diet :(
Bronco0605 replied to donaboss's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This happened to me I wanted everything but knew I could really have nothing! It really messed with my mind. -
How often do you weigh?
Bronco0605 replied to Holly Lewis's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I don't own a scale. I am looking for one that I like. I usually weigh at the gym but I don't call anything official unless it is on the doctor's scale. -
ladies..did your period come on sched after surgery?
Bronco0605 replied to abarta83's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Nope mine skipped. I have skipped before too when my calories were really low or my exercise increased by a lot. -
Exercising and 9 days post op
Bronco0605 replied to cbwalker79's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Wow at nine days out! That is incredible! I barely was getting out of bed. -
Not getting enough calories or protein!
Bronco0605 replied to Ree's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It sounds like you are eating a lot of variety for being pretty early post op. At 3-4 weeks I was still on pureed food. I could not stomach the Protein shakes or milk either until recently and I am 7 weeks out now and I am so glad to have them back. What is on your list? Maybe we can help you be creative! -
Well here goes nothin!
Bronco0605 replied to Amanda Nicole Hosaflook's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Good luck see you on the other side! -
Medicare does not require a six month supervised diet.
