How long was everyone out of work?
desertgirl6801 replied to rredrruby87's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm also a admin/hr assistant but i deal a lot with packages, shipments and mailings. I took a week off of work but ended up needing a few more days. Recovering took longer than i expected. My boss was aware of my surgery and was very understanding about the whole thing. . . Everyones recovery time is different. you might want to play that one by ear. Congrats on your new job and good luck! -
New body but same body image
desertgirl6801 replied to ruthie74's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wish i could see the difference in pictures. Took my daughter apple picking over the weekend and my sister in law snapped a photo of me while i wasnt looking. After seeing it, my entire confidence level shot straight to the floor. I've lost about 30 pounds and was happy with my progress until i saw that darn photo. I still saw the me 30 lbs ago. It kind of felt like i'm working so hard and its not even paying off even though i KNOW that it is... . think its time to work on the negative self images and stop being my own worst critic. -
Bariatric friendly desserts?
desertgirl6801 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
At work and craving something sweet! I bought a fat free pear chobani greek yogurt and the thing had 19grams of sugar. Guess i won't be eating that. Does anyone know of some bariatric friendly desserts? -
Ummm i think this one differs. I was told by my doctor and nutritionist that my protein is protein and is not included in your daily fluid intake. Check with your DOC/NUT to see what they suggest.

One month post op!
desertgirl6801 replied to carolina c's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Think im doing ok for the most part. a little over a month out... got kind of tired of the thick shakes so i started making my own portein drinks with a diet ocean spray drink of some sort and Protein powder. pretty tasty and a nice break from the shakes. My energy level comes and goes. some days i feel like im good and ready to go. other days im like look, today is going to be a 'no do nothing day'. Vitamins would work so much better im sure if i remembered to take them. I take about 7 pills a day so I usually try to pack them up in advance and always run out of the house and leave them behind on the counter. still eating mushy type foods....canned chicken has become my best friend. I'm learning to make all sorts of chicken meal variations. and then theres the Water....just like the vitamins...my water intake would be so much more if i would just remember to drink it. at first i couldnt drink just plain water. needed some sort of drink enhancer in it but now i cant stomach the mio's, crystal light makes me nauesous and that dasani water stuff....forget it. don't know whats going on with that. i get cleared for exercise at my 6 week check up in october. really excited about that! i miss zumba glad you're feeling better! -

August sleevers progress
desertgirl6801 replied to muneca1029's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Surgery date: 8/21 Doing ok. Lost about 28 pounds so far. weighed in on monday and again this morning, still at 242. I really hope im not about to hit this dreaded stall i keep reading about! Did really well first few weeks out.....now not so much. Not having any real problems getting anything down. The 'you're full stop eating' sensor still works but my weight loss has really slowed. Didnt notice it until i stepped on the scale. Trying not to worry about it to much I'll focus more on the NSV.
