I don't know exactly how you can follow me on pinterest but it's Jillian Swire DePaola. My board called Healthy Eats are things that I've been finding that are bariatric friendly. I'm trying the chicken chili this weekend and the pumpkin protein shake after I see nutrition tomorrow. I will keep adding.....I too looooove fall foods - especially pumpkin!!! Good Luck!

Another hair question...
jillian109 replied to ruthie74's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Talk to your hairdresser. I am pretty sure that coloring gives it more volume making the hair loss look less. -

1 Week Post Op Only 8 Pounds!
jillian109 replied to team135's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I lost a whole 5 lbs. my first week. :0(. Had a melt down. Talked to some prior rny friends and they eased my mind. Slow and steady. One day at a time. I am starting this week today with a fresh outlook. I can do this. It will happen. So can you! -
So, how do I know for sure I'm dehydrated? When do I call the MD? I have a nasty cold, pee is getting darker every day and headache is splitting! Just don't know if I call it would help to get some fluids. Sigh. I just want to sleep. Any advice?

Whos in September? We need some September buddies!
jillian109 replied to janie2024's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ugh!! My first post op was yesterday and I barely hit 5 lbs. :0(. When!!!?!?! -
Thanks guys. I know there is no turning back, but the what ifs are taking over my brain!! I can't voice my concern to my husband because he will just say it was my decision oh well. One of my best friends is having the surgery in a month so I don't want to discourage her! And my mother would freak out if I even mentioned I had a doubt. Sigh. I appreciate your posts. I need people who sleeved a month ago to give me some feedback!! Lol. Maybe I'll go browse the August boards.......

So...1 week post-op and I am freaking out a little today. Starting to doubt my choice and driving myself crazy. Did I really need to do this? I wasn't that overweight was I? Even with this what if I only lose like 40 lbs? I could do that with nutrisystem. I am not one to need food, but today I just want a bite. Of something. Anything. A sandwich. A salad. An English muffin. Ugh. Maybe it's being home and tired and sore. I don't know. I'm hoping it passes but I really just feel like sleeping the day away so I can't think about it. It's like post partum depression over here! I've only lost 5 lbs. a week out. Maybe that's part of what's bugging me too. I don't know. Just looking for a way to vent and share. :0( thanks

Bruised Belly Button
jillian109 replied to megandearcos's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My belly button incision took the longest after my gall bladder. It's not looking so pretty this time either. Try to not irritate it with your pants - it might be time to revisit the high waistline. Lol. I've been wearing yoga pants with the fold over waist and leaving it unfolded kind of like maternity pants. Good luck! -
