Insure Nutrition Metabolic Supplement
KMLG135 replied to CE24's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
tfarr, I don't blame you one bit! That is a bit whack-a-doo!!! Very irritating. And as far as comparing my weight loss, I'm not trying to be Captain Obvious here!!! I'm certainly not new in this weight loss rodeo. Therefore, I'm not trying to compare my own actual weight loss!! I'm simply asking for feedback if anyone felt the metabolic powder helped break a stall or started to lose more weight after slowing in their own weightloss. ... -

I would like feedback on the effectiveness of the metabolic suplement. If anyone used it & felt it helped in breaking a stall or helped speed weightloss??? I'm down 81 lbs & have 24 to go to get to my goal of 135lbs!!! I'm only losing 5-7lbs a mo now... I would like to get to goal YESTERDAY! Thank you... -

Did you know Your Protein Drinks Can be Covered By Your Insurance?
KMLG135 replied to Insure Nutrition's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello please help, I'm very concerned! - Has anyone had a successful relationship with this company? I'm waiting for my Dr. to sign off on the prescription ! How long does it take to receive your products once the company receives your script? Are the Vitamins ok in taste and of sufficient nutrition value?? And does this $5 K scar cream I'm reading about really work? Thank you for your help. - KMLG -

KMLG135 replied to DeniseNCC1701's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
WOW - you look fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing your journey! You are doing awesome. Keep up the good work! -
Ohhh no sorry you are having discomfort! I had a similar issue! It turned out to be gall stones. I had my gall bladder removed 2 days later! I would call Dr.'s office & see what they advise! I had immediate relief post gall bladder removal surg. Best of luck to you...

I was sleeved April 9th, 2014! I have regular stalls - even 3 weeks without a loss. I try to stay focused on the plan & eventually I lose. I have learned to stay off of the scale so that I don't drive myself crazy. I read "success stories" and feel inspired. I am so thankful to those of you whom share your stories/progress and pictures. It really helps people along this journey! I will not give up and my goal will be met and maintained. I love my new healthy life. I am grateful for the nice encouraging emails from total strangers & not one single day goes by that I regret the decision/ investment to become a sleever. I would do it all again in a heartbeat! Like so many of you have read, my on,y regret is that I did not do it sooner! Thank you all for your kind support! ❤️

GREAT NEW SINGLE LOCATION FOR "STALL TALK!"
KMLG135 replied to LivingFree!'s topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Awesome Cupcake!!! Well done... I like your plan I'm 17 weeks post op & stalling bigtime! I'm going back to the basics! I have both those Premier Protein Shakes & just bought pure Protein Bars for the 1st time last week! Yummy I think I may need to lay off of the low carb cheese! And kick up my cardio a notch! Thank you for sharing ... -
Obviously at different times i snack on any one of the following : a few big green olives, Kashi caramelized onion flavor humus chips, string cheese, cucumbers w/ a slice of cheese, baby pickles, sugar free jello, Dannon light & fit yogurt, mission carb balance tortilla w/ turkey & cheese .... Ohh and coffee ????!!! I'm going to start adding a half of a protein bar here & there! I am struggling w/ reaching my total protein for the day....
-
AWESOME - good for you..... Very motivating! Congratulations to you! I just had gall bladder surgery on Fri. I was on a 2 week stall! I'm ready to get back in the swing of things!!!

How are you doing post op?
-
Congrats - welcome to the other side ! How are you feeling?
-
I have a FIT BIT - it keeps track of my steps & I have the FIT BIT app on my phn. It lets you enter your fluids & protein, carbs, etc... My protein shakes are part of my "fluid goal" my dr just requests a total fluid goal of 40 - 60 oz a day, not 60 + oz of water! Thank God I would never make it.. I'm on to puréed foods now through May 21st... My next Drs apt is May 22nd. I will be 6 weeks post op then. I am a total rule follower with this as it was a self pay of $20k adventure so there is no way I won't succeed. I walk around with the thought of I have $20 k in my tummy, and there is no way will I blow it .. I'm feeling fine - I'm on my way to Hottyville ????... That is my plan! How are you feeling? Did you watch any of the You Tube videos? Take Care.. And keep on keeping on!????????

Pre-op nurse called me to old for surgery and made me nervous!
KMLG135 replied to Bigmommatojacob's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
REALLY ?? WOW!!!! - That rude cow is out of line!! I would report her to her boss! We have enough rushing through our heads pre surg!! You don't need to be insulted along the way! Who in the F does she think she is??... People are soo rude & ignorant! ???? Good luck & keep us posted and spare the next person her insults & report her please!!! -

@ dsmiyh_rn WOW good for you! You have got this by the tail now & have come a long way! Listen to you!! YAY you are Soldiering right along to your new life! So this is your HAPPY V DAY EVE!! FYI -I was nervous the week before too & then this sense of boldness & calmness came over me & I carried those positive thoughts with me right to the OR. I'm 2 weeks post op now &. I feel pretty good - just a little sore around my incisions! As far as YouTube! I'm a huge fan of vsgtanya2011 search her & go back to her beginning & then now! I encourage anyone whom might be reading this to do the same. She has an Amazing transformation! Her journey is super inspiring to me... She is so real! Anyway I'm glad your spirits are up.. You are going to surprise yourself with your strength... Take it very easy post surgery and with each day that passes it gets better & better, I promise.

At least 40 grams of protein to start.. 2 protein shakes a day! Skim milk & yogurt, cream soups or broth.. Full liquids - nothing chunky. At least 40 oz of non caffeine liquids. You should really contact your dr office the protocol varies f/ surgeon to surgeon. Seriously

on my way and nervous!
