  1. Thats great! Keep up the good work with drinking water. Lots of people have problems with that
  2. Not a long time. It'll be here before you know it. We're talking about a couple of months. Use this time to do more research. Become a Sleeve expert

    Pre op diet?

    I would suggest asking your surgeon or NUT. Pre op diets are so important. You want to do exactly what they say.

    Scale and Non-Scale Victories!

    Awesome....congrats
  8. Always go with what your NUT or surgeon suggests not a forum....just saying....
  9. Good for you. One of many such choices you'll be making for the rest of your life

    I need some good advisement

    You'll need to call the insurance to find out what their criteria are. Usually you have to have a bmi of 35 to 39 with co morbidities or a bmi of 40 or above with no co morbidities

    http://www.obesitycoverage.com/weight-loss-surgeries/gastric-sleeve/gastric-sleeves-how-much-weight-will-i-lose This link has a calculator at the bottom that can calculate how much you might lose with the sleeve. I too don't have a drastic amount to lose....like 90 lbs.
  12. It's not a race, it's a marathon. Keep doing what you're doing. Congrats on your weight loss.
  13. That's awesome. Not only does it give you a new focus it increases your desire to eat clean!

    Fellow cooks! How do you do it?

    Lipstick lady I noticed from your doctor's name that you're from my area. I hope to have surgery with Dr. Carmody soon. Still waiting for insurance approval. Congrats on your surgery. Sorry this is off topic. I can't answer it since I'm still pre op but got excited when I saw your doctor's name. Those lips always get attention

    Beef Jerky anyone?

    Jack Links are exactly what I fell in love with. Wish you can get them in bulk

    Feeling better about liquid diet

    Premier Protein is a great one, with lots of protein!

    Beef Jerky anyone?

    It's my new favorite now. I became interested recently because a lot of post ops eat it. I'm still pre op so I decided to find out what they were so hyped about and fell in love. What I keep hearing is to make sure you chew, chew, chew, chew, chew, chew....I think more RNY folks have problems with it getting stuck. Never heard anything like that from Sleeves.

    So irritated!

    Or better yet, go by there.

    So irritated!

    Sqeaky wheel gets the oil. Bug them. Do you know why it hasn't been faxed? For example are they waiting for the surgeon to write up something?
  21. You can't make that determination. That's why we have to have a psych eval (assuming he's honest with where he is in his recovery).
