Trust me when I say that your body will MAKE YOU fight to be in One-derland. Try eating super high calories in one day. As .many as you can..this tends trick.your body into thinking its nolonger I starvation and you should see a decline in weight the following day. Also... Try and cut out any breads, Pasta, rice and sugar until you break the stall. Also... Enter your food into an app like MyFitnessPal. Maybe your carbs are too high. Just a few suggestions. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 165.0 lbs. --- Only 15 lbs to my goal ---

Plz help!
LeticiaHuggins replied to Crystalynn Alhashim's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Everyone is right... Walk walk walk! I even walked or should I say paced back and forward in my room. Fyi... I would wait to try that soup again in a few weeks or months. Sometimes really Water foods are hard to eat or even digest. I personally think its like eating food.and drinking together. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 165.0 lbs. --- Only 15 lbs to my goal --- -
Nervous Nellie! Surgery on july 23
LeticiaHuggins replied to mitzie46's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You will do fine... I was giving a relax pill during my prep which help a lot with my nerves. Then they wrapped me up on this hot air blanket that was comfy. When I got outside of the surgery room I was greeted by my surgery nurse, anesthesia Dr and Surgeon. After a meet and greet some of my anesthetics was injected into my IV which knocked me the heck out. My Surgeon doesn't like for his patients to see the surgery room.. and I was cool with that. I tend to panic from medical stuff. After surgery I woke up groagy but I appreciated that cause of the pain. It wasn't too bad but it wasn't too good. The nurses will wake you up and walk you the same day as your surgery. If you are a little or a lotta sleepy after... Take advantage of it. Trust me after little that moriphine button ever 15 to 30 minutes... You'll be back off to sleepy la la land anyways. You'll do fine! ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 165.0 lbs. --- Only 15 lbs to my goal --- -
Need help and pointers please!
LeticiaHuggins replied to Big Wojo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Maybe the surgeon cut a few extra nerves while inside. Or maybe because you're so gassy its putting pressure on your nerves that run in those areas. It could be just one nerve thats doing all this damage. I'm not MD but... I'm a darn good Guess-e-ologist in my area ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 165.0 lbs. --- Only 15 lbs to my goal --- -

Can I pick a ton.. not just one! 1) I can wrap my bath towel once and a half around me and tuck it in. Before... I just tucked it under each boob to keep it up ..LOL. it was like a 5 inch space in the middle showing my belly.. 2) My kids play and wrap their hands around my waist without touching me and extra room left too. I get a kick off of them getting a kick from it. LOL. 3) Sex... (TMI)...Whoop whoop!!! Before I use to get on top and my honey would complaint sometimes that I was hurting his hips because if my weight. NOW! ..... he's tossing me around like I'm light as a feather. LOL 4) I love the fact that I no longer have to try on my clothes before buying them. As long as its a Medium and a size 9 .. it'll fit! 5) YES.... the men are starring even harder, but I just laugh and keep it pushing. Sorry boys..but I gotta man! LOL.... And he was down for.me when was P.H.A.T! 6) I busted out a bikini at the beach the other day. Yes I did have a see thru cover up that camouflaged my stretch marks, minor loose skin and a little cellulite... RMAO! Yes if I was single I would have been false advertising... But I'm not so I was simply working it! LOL 7) I love being able to jump up and do this when I don't feel like picking Something out. My honey has every color you can imagine.

I'm overwhelmed by their response
LeticiaHuggins replied to Cecilia's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Same thing here... I had so many negative comments and now that I've had no issues and my transformaton doesn't look like I use to be big everybody and their phat momma is asking me a ton of questions. What makes me super self conscience is when I see someone that hasn't seen me since before surgery and the get ALL LOUD AND EXCITED... saying... "OH My Gosh Tish, you look SO AMAZING! I didn't even recognize you." I'm super confident and always have been but that sure makes me want to cover myself up and be shy. . ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op.

Don't worry about the recovery cause tubiligations are done as out patient... After my first 24 hours of sleeping my anesthesia meds off I was totally fine. You should do it! I had mine done at different times but my RNY was a tad bit more painful but actually it was that bad either. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op.

Nurse J... I'm so excited for you. Have you received your surgery date. Id love to come see you in the hospital and finally be the one coming to your room instead of the other way around ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op.

Because I lost 40 lbs 2 weeks before my bssurgery date and didn't have to do the 2 week pre-op just the pre sugery cleanse like 24-48 hrs before. But 2 weeks before my Dr said to not lose anymore weight and to up .my calories and not to work out. I was weighig 216 and it was slightly under the required weight buy since I had so many medical issues they were willing to proceed. So about a week before I had a funeral which was right on time because my daughters girl scout cookie sales kicked in.

TMI - Constipation

Remember ladies... With the heat at its.highest right not its draining Water from us even if we're inside. I'm sure most of us have noticed harder stools right now since summer start. I know we all don't want to heat this but the 64 oz we're required to drink is no where.enough during this time. Up.. up... Up.. your water intake and whatever you do don't workout in the heat. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 165.0 lbs. --- Only 15 lbs to my goal ---
