I gave up my beloved diet coke and crystal lite has been a lifesaver! All colors and flavors.

Recovery..... do you really need someone the first few weeks?
patticake1448 replied to bluedreams86's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was very blessed to have had a pretty easy recovery. I live alone and had no problem being alone after surgery. Friends called to check in, which was very nice. I had my recliner and all my supplies ready, so I was good to go! -

In one day, out the next. Minimal pain. A bit of advice...it may be kinda hard to get in and out of bed, so a recliner is perfect!

is it weird or should I be greatful?
patticake1448 replied to ChristyAZ's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 11 months out and just like you ladies....smooth recovery, no problem at all with any foods, able to drink any amount. I never have felt full. I consider all of this a mixed blessing. Im now sliding back into bad habits and have started gaining again. Very disappointed in myself! -

Surgery Date 8/1 Class on 8/22?
patticake1448 replied to Beckyyb93's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I work a desk job during the day and at a hair salon at nite and on the weekends (always on my feet). Took a week and a half off, then was back to work at both jobs with no problem. Im guessing ur surgery will be more complicated since its a revision, but it should be doable. Everyone recovers at a different pace, but u should be feeling pretty good by then. Good luck and God bless! -
What protein supplements are you taking?
patticake1448 replied to akira808se's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Premier protein from costco gives you the most protein for the least calories/money. Chocolate, vanilla and strawberry with 30 grams of protein each. GNC shakes taste better, but only have 25 grams of protein. -
NEED REVISION FROM GASTRIC BYPASS...

What exactly is a gastric bypass revision, and how did u get ur surgeon to do it? I feel like the rny didnt work for me at all and would like to have it redone.
