miss sleeping on my stomach
LeticiaHuggins replied to vitav04's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
RRRMMAAOO! Yep! I remember this. I use to love sleeping on my stomach and then after surgery I spent so much time sleeping off my tummy I don't sleep that way anymore. Hang in there! -

Carbonated drinks
LeticiaHuggins replied to gaflalo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My Dr said to kiss soda and alcohol good bye forever. He won't support it. Even after the first year. LOL -
OMG... Call your Dr again! Hopefully he can get you back on feeling better

Following Dr's orders has worked wonders. She ups your calories every 4 months.
-
My Dr said to keep it at 600 calories. Now that I burn 1000 calories a day she up'd it to 800.
-
Thanks... Awesome info here!

You can actually get the same results with bengay and plastic wrap. This technique is old school.. my mom use to pay top dollars to have her entire body wrapped.

I'm 3 months post op and mine started to shed about 4 weeks ago. My hair is about 1/2 as thick now. I take all my Vitamins, eat 75 to 100 grams of Protein a day and drink about 75 ounces. My hair seems to be slowing down. I think my hair loss is the last thing I should worry about tho. Remember that this is only temporary. I'm actually having fun wearing my clip in weave to get back the fullness and add a little length to the back. If you can't achieve it.. weave it!

Hang in there... Remember we didn't do this to look like Americas Next Top Models... This was to be healthier. I had a major belly and I'm trying to target it right now with Tae Bo Advanced and calistetics. I've seen a MAJOR decrease in my abdominal area. Just stick to it.

Soda yes? No?
LeticiaHuggins replied to jbellastar's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh no no no... Ive been under the knife to lose this weight and soda was "part" of the reason I got in this situation. -
Hmm how much have you lost
LeticiaHuggins replied to kmarcelle's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had mine 4/21/13 and have lost 48 lbs since. I've lost a total of 83.5 lbs since the very beginning tho. I think it depends the weight you started out at. Discharged from the hospital I was 221. For those that were 300+ they'll lose much faster. I may not go down in lbs fast but my size is decreasing quick. I'm wearing a size 10 and a medium shirt now. -
I got my period the day I was discharged. It was really heavy and for 2-3 days. It only comes once ever month but like you said... Dang, where is all this blood coming from?
-
Size 1? .... Oh Em Gee what did you start out at? When was your surgery?
-
Is my scale wrong?
LeticiaHuggins replied to TinyMamiOf3kids's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I know ... Right! Well I can work with 30 lbs. LOL -
Eating two weeks post op
LeticiaHuggins replied to janel129's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What works for one person may not work for another... I didn't have to blend my food cause I chewed well. You should follow the rules and if you can cut the roles just be wise about it. -
I agree... Increase you're Water, Protein and water. Also make sure you're eating enough carbs. You may also need to increase your B12 and B50... You may need to start fettichini B12 shots. Also... Fatigue does go hand and hand with the Post RNY life. Sometimes you just become fatigue and there is nothing you can do about it. If you're doing what is required .. it shall pass. It happens because your pouch doesn't take in all the mutton it needs. You might even be anemic right now too. Go to your Dr and get your blood work done again.

Yeah how did it go? My hats off to you appealing it. Most people just lay down and take their denial.
