how fast is the weight loss?
Jacqueline K replied to Tina727's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Since surgery (16 days ago) I have lost 27 pounds but I have a lot to loose. Those that have less to lose are going to go slower. I am 350 as of this morning and hope to get to 150. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -

I think it does. I love my red hair... No one but me has to know its from a bottle lol. I haven't noticed the Biotin increasing my hunger either. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -

Questions on hospital stay
Jacqueline K replied to PittGuy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got one before surgery and one before I went home. The needle is so small you can barely feel the shot. It does burn afterwards as the medicine spreads but that's the worst of it. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -

I had my own room as well. They did wake me up a lot but I only stayed one night so I got plenty of sleep when I got home. My mom stayed with me overnight. The leg compression pumps didn't bother me at all. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -

Cheated on pre op diet
Jacqueline K replied to denise0805's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes I had one bad day during my pre op diet as doc said my liver was nice and small. Just pick yourself back up and try not to slip again! You can do this! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -
Yes my NUT said to introduce one thing at a time and if it doesn't agree then stay away for a few weeks and try it again. The only things I've had bad experiences with so far are mashed potatoes- they sit too heavy and crystal light lemonades- they feel like they burn. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I am planning to head to Vitamin Shoppe sometime this weekend. I might go later today- after my nap of course. I haven't been in one though there is one in town. Want to get a few new things to try. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

how did u decide Gastric bypass rather than the sleeve
Jacqueline K replied to mom24kiddos's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I had too much to lose to consider lap band. I have a relative that had the sleeve a couple years ago and she's not happy with her weight loss. I just figured if I was having WLS that I wanted the most proven and effective. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -

April 2013 Post-Op Group
Jacqueline K replied to Wendilou's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was having trouble sleeping too. Called my surgeon and they recommended dissolvable melatonin- I got mine at Walgreens. It has helped me so much! I slept only 2 hours Sunday night but since then much better. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -
I was like that the morning of surgery. My stomach was in knots. You will do fine though! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Best tasting chew-able vitamin
Jacqueline K replied to lovingme4me's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I second this. I use the berry flavor one. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk -
I feel you on that! I've been using my heating pad a lot to ease the cramps. I'm hoping this stops soon.

Be careful which Pamprin you are taking. Some of their products have NSAIDs and some don't.
