Be Careful When You Exercise
magtart replied to Miss Mac's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Ha! I haven't thought of Peter Sellers in years! -
Final: 233.2 Bah! I missed my goal of 230. Thanks again for doing these challenges, Bea.

The rules are different depending on your doctor.

I was told to let them come off in the shower.

Did anyone have a last meal?
magtart replied to jacquelynndiaz's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had a small steak, sauteed mushrooms, and asparagus. Not something I couldn't eat again and I have had it several times. I tried to think of something I wouldn't be able to eat after surgery and nothing sounded worth it. I might have gone out for Mexican food if I had someone to go with. -
I look forward to the morning after potty event. It doesn't always work, though. Sometimes my morning coffee helps move things along.

I have some wine every week. Not a big deal for me.

Supersize vs. Superskinny
magtart replied to magtart's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My 600lb. Life is a totally different. It does not involve superskinny people swapping diets with superfat people. I watch both shows and there is no comparison. -
Has anyone seen this show? It is a British show and I am watching it on YouTube. I have watched all of season one and am into season two since yesterday. Season one seemed stupid with the "Ban the Big Bum" stuff, but season two is pretty good. The main premise is having an overweight person and an extremely underweight person swap diets for a week. In season two they bring in a woman who is about to have gastric sleeve surgery as a method of scaring the overweight person into eating a normal diet. The surgeon said "she would never be able to eat in a restaurant again". I don't know how old this series is, but it has many more seasons so I am sure it has changed a lot. Even so, I am finding it interesting now that My 600lb. Life is over for now.

Need help finding protein shakes/powder! Recommendations?
magtart replied to MorganO87's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Most people like Premier Protein shakes. That's what I use. I buy mine at Kroger, but Amazon, costco, Sam's, and some Walgreen's have it. -

5 months out...tortoise or the hare?
magtart replied to ItsMeAgain's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm over 3 months out and have lost only 32 lbs. You are not the only one. -
I just had a P3 for lunch...very good!
-
I would have strayed off of cricket broth, too. Ick! Anyway, maybe the onions made you gassy. That could make your stomach feel too full. Try some gas-x or something. I am pretty sure you didn't hurt anything.
-
I have never heard of it. I worry sometimes when I am reading posts by people going overboard on exercise.
-
Where in the store are these located?

Pureed Food? Nooooooooo.....
magtart replied to Aunt GG's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I never pureed anything. I ate tuna salad, refried Beans w/cheese, split pea soup, bean soup, stuff like that. I tried pureed chicken and just the sight of it made me want to hurl. -
I asked my NUT a couple of weeks ago and she said not to worry about calories, just Protein and Water. That said, I am shooting for around 800 a day.

Restriction during liquids
magtart replied to sarahgirrl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Very little, if any. You will really notice when you start eating real food. -
PLEASE HELP - Anyone gotten a "Dr's release" to return to work?
magtart replied to elenasal's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
You should probably talk to your PCP about after care when you return home. He/she should be able to provide the form for you.
