Looking forward to insurance approval

Holy cow, both your sisters passed away from heart attacks that young? Damn, sorry to hear that. I wish you luck with your approval. -
Why do you even care what other people think? Post what you like and let the haters hate.

Nice work Bigbeaz, keep it up! -
Protein shakes

As long as you reach your protein goals set by your doc it really don't matter in what form you get it. -
I NEED HELP PPL

Just follow your docs instructions, he or she is better prepared to advise you than anyone on this forum is. -
My surgeon gave us a "goodie" bag which included a pedometer and a water bottle that has a straw built in and a flip up straw that you drink through. If straws were really bad for us I don't think he would have done that.

October Sleevers - Who else
Someguy1383837857 replied to clefofcividale's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Mine was yesterday on the 31st, went without a hitch, feeling fine and having no pain. In fact it feels like nothing has changed besides some soreness at the incisions, which makes me a little worried because even if I drink 16oz of water at a time, or a whole 8oz of protein shake I don't feel full at all, I'm not hungry either though, so that's good! -
Pretty sure I f***ed up the sleeve. No leak, but I might as well have never gotten it.

You guys sure are uptight. You post how you like and I shall post how I like. -
How will you celebrate reaching your goal?

Probably sky diving. -

Why would you say that? I read his post and his post has all the relevant information to his situation, nothing anyone else posted mattered. -

I didn't read the rest of the thread and just read the initial post but it sounds like you may need direct counseling rather than a support group. You may be addicted to food and alcohol. -
Thanksgiving.. What to eat.?
Someguy1383837857 replied to meaganchuckran's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My family long since gave up the idea of having our mom slave away in the kitchen for days and we all just go out to eat on thanksgiving and have other people prepare the food! -

I'll be 4 weeks out on thanksgiving, I hope I am able to eat some turkey at least. -
Trouble with food/liquids
Someguy1383837857 replied to Megabuck886's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yeah, add some unflavored protein powder into chicken broth and that gives me my savory fix when I'm sick of all the sweets. Unjury chicken soup protein powder is pretty good too! -

1 month post op and kind of disappointed
Someguy1383837857 replied to mtodd1205's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
If you are losing inches then you are doing well I think. Don't be a slave to the scale because it's going to drive you nuts. I plan to only weigh myself once a month or when I visit my PCP or surgeon. -

If you are following your surgeon and nutritionists directions to the letter, then no you aren't doing something wrong, your body may just need time to adapt still. Have you been exercising more? You could be putting on a little bit more muscle. -

Also I've found Syntrax brand Fuzzy Navel to be a super thin protein mix even with the regular amount of water. It don't taste too bad either once I put a drop or two of ezsweetz in. It's liquid splenda without any of the carbs that the powdered packets have from the filler they use. -

Try making your protein drinks super watery, like if the instructions say add 8oz of water to one scoop, try 16 or 24 oz with it. It'll dilute it and possible make it easier to take down over a longer period of time. -
Incredible, keep it up!

Surgery in the morning of the 31st, anyone else?
Someguy1383837857 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I need to arrive at the hospital at 8 am and I'm feeling a little queasy from nerves. Here's to hoping I am not in the unlucky 1% that have serious issues. Good luck to any other folks getting their surgery today as well! -

Thanks, I hope yours does too! I just started to try eating some sugar free jello, stomach is a little less happy about it than the chicken broth and unflavored protein powder, but it isn't too bad. Little bit of gurgling and burping and slight stomach pain. I did take two percocets first though:P I drank 16oz of water no problem before I started eating the jello. -
Is there anyone that does NOT have trouble eating or drinking.
Someguy1383837857 replied to pjackson0523's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
No trouble at all getting fluids in so far. I have not tried anything mushy yet. Got sleeved yesterday. -

Just woke up, I could sleep on my side my back or however I wanted. Still feel a little sore but a little less than yesterday. I hope this trend continues! -

Did it. I was so nervous but it all went by in a blink of an eye. I am having very little pain, what amounts to a dull ache around the incision sites. I Walked from one side of the hospital to the other a couple of times upon waking up and was sent on my way home after a few hour nap. So far so good!
