So today I broke up with my boyfriend of 6 years. Just sick of all the bull he has put me through not sure if its because I have more confidence from losing weight or has nothing to do with me weight loss, kinda numb about the whole thing.

I LOVE THIS STUFF., I have never found a protein mix I couldn't taste and now I have, this stuff rocks I added it to my yogurt,drinks and you can't taste a thing I am in love!

Off meds and WIDE AWAKE
NurseTAB replied to agirlofaith's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Umn bad idea for the pain med only when you can't take it any longer, you need to be comfortable while recovering. Waiting until your in pain to take the meds umn no no. I'm a registered nurse and people wait to long to take meds then can't control there pain and come in to ER, trust me I know I work in a ER. -
It's that way for awhile the decreaed calorie intake, major surgery. I didn't feel like myself for a good 2 months if not longer. Just take it easy until ya feel like yourself, body's way of telling ya to relax.

3 weeks out & STARVING
NurseTAB replied to Jessica9190's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am almost 6 months out and can enjoy food again, I know how you guys feel though I felt the same way. Eating for the first few months seems like a chore and just isn't what it used to be which is a good thing. It will get better I promise just focus on healing and making good choices. You soon find what ya can and cant tolerate, which is different for everyone. -
abdominal exercise? ?
NurseTAB replied to annav562's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doc said no ab exercises like crunches or strengthening exercise on abs for 3 months due to hernias after surgery from incision sites . -
I can never find things I like in thrift stores

I am a nurse and didn't buy new scuba till I lost 70 pounds and I just been picking up new clothes here and there when I have money makes it more affordable then buying all at one plus you can get smaller sizes so you always have something that fits

Knowing you're full.
NurseTAB replied to lovealways's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I get hiccups sometimes but not all the time I have that full feeling once I've eaten to much -
I went with the band first and lost maybe 10 pounds I knew I should of went with bypass after my second seminar with my current bypass doctor, the band I think isn't worth the time by personal experience.

I live in Jackson MI and had mine done in Ann Arbor at Forest Medical Center, it's only for gastric bypass patients they do plastic surgery too after you have lost all your weight

Constantly nauseated
NurseTAB replied to Jessica9190's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was the same way at first no nausea then after 3 month started having it and got meds from my doc and it really helped , then started having nausea and and pain whenever I ate and doc said I prob have an ulcer so took meds for that and man did it help, talk with your doc that's what they get paid for -
Wendy's Chili Yay or Nay?
NurseTAB replied to libra_lisa's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I purred Wendy's chilli when I was still on purred And did fine with it other then it doesn't taste as good all purred together but it's a change from the protein drinks and yogurt and cheese. -
