My Sugar levels after WLS were about 150ish and was told to continue on them till my 1st Dr Visit, I recorded every thing by Second Dr Visit sugar levels went down to about 100- 120 I was walking every other day and he said that in a month I should be off the pills as long as my levels are below 130, I think 200 is to high for the Dr to take you off Completely!! Talk to Him again and let him know your concerns!!! Or to another Dr!!! That's just my opinion!! Good Luck please keep us posted!!

Anyone tried sushi yet?
tink65 replied to Amandabythepound's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Instead of Nori Try it with Rice Paper (if u can) it maybe the Nori that makes it come up. I'm 6 weeks PO and I Love Sushi and was wondering also as I'm reading the comments rice paper came to mind. (just a thought) -
Sagging skin? Need advice
tink65 replied to Pam Peltz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Remember to Exercise!! It will help out a lil cuz you r building up the Muscles!! And it won't look as bad!! And if you have Cosmetic Surgery you will have better definition, and your results will be better!! Just a thought!! Also cuz we r losing weight so past we will sag!! this goes hand and hand with this kind Surgery unfortunately!! -
You would have to crush them, or if they r the ones that are two toned remove one side and swallow the lil tiny beads only!!
-
Wow you look Spectacular way to go!! Keep up the good work!!

Fantastic!! I was thinking the same thing! Going to school Jr Collage! after 30 years being out ( 30 year Reunion Coming up) and taking a Business Class!! I feel better and lil more Confident a process in work!! Good Luck to everyone whoohoo!! -
I started doing it Once A Week! One reason was because I didn't have a scale (just got one) and Only because if u do it daily for some they get Discouraged & Frustrated and they start have second thoughts! When they don't see the scale move down!! You don't want to do this to yourself!! It's up to you!! Just a thought!

When I had my Surgery Dec 18, 2012 they found that I also had a hernia, something unexpected!! My surgeon said to wait a year because it was small! And I should wait till then, :/

Also add if it's ok w/ your Dr a Pro biotic it's good for your intestines and much easier on the Intestinal trac then Stool softeners!. Also it will take Months My Cuzn had it done 2 years ago and still has to take Laxatives!.

That's what mine said, you need to ask your own NUT to see what they say!! Every NUT is different.
-
This is what my NUT said about Chia or Chia seeds, as they are mostly seen, do have fiber because they are a seed. Iron is minimal in them, so not a very adequate source.

Make sure they don't. Have Collagen in them!!
