Hi, my name is Kim. I'm 45. I was sleeved on 12/26/12. I'm a little over 3 months post op. I have lost 44 lbs and am 1 pound away from onderland! I eat about 800-900 cals per day and 40-70 gms Protein. I have trouble getting in enough fluids, tho. I would love to meet up!! A little more about me: I M married (its complicated) I am an RN, but not currently working. I live in Rio Rancho.

I dont have a card or an ID bracelet that says i have had a VSG. Do you? Should I? Where did you get it? What kind do you have and is it for emergencies only? If you use a card at an eating establishment-- which ones are the most helpful?

Almost 3 weeks out...what to drink?
Tink22-sleeve replied to MK1986's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I love decaf tea-- all kinds. It goes down easy and keeps me warmed up. Hot chocolate is also good (sugar free). Popsicles help to get some fluids in. I also like fat free milk (also good for protein). Vitamin water. -
Is it enough?
Tink22-sleeve replied to usmcmorninngstar@yahoo.com's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
At 6 weeks post op I had lost about that much weight. I am 3 months out and have lost 41lbs. The lower the BMI, the slower the weight loss, I've also heard. Slow and steady wins the race, right? Youre ok...we got this! -
Chest pain and Burping

Hey Russell, saw your status update. great job on the weight loss!! Are you on an acid reducer? -
Lean cuisine meals?
Tink22-sleeve replied to Jmbaker24's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I do eat a small portion of a lean cuisine or weight watchers occasionally. Lean cuisine and weight watchers seem to have much more carbs than say Atkins. Atkins is much higher in Protein, but has more fat--they are also expensive (but good). Also, i cant really tolerate chicken or Pasta, so that doesn't leave many choices for lean cuisine and weight watchers. -
From what i understand from my nutritionist, we are encouraged to avoid anything that has carbonation in it. Hope this helps you.
-
I'm down for that? Something on the westside? Any afternoon is good with me.

What do you take for acid reduction
Tink22-sleeve replied to kpaige77's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take prilosec (omeprazole) 2x/day, and i still get heartburn sometimes. I never had that problem before surgery. I hope it goes away. I am 2 1/2 months post op. -
Are most Sleevers Women? If so Why?
Tink22-sleeve replied to MidnightBinger's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I completely agree with missmeow. I couldnt say it better myself -
Hang in there dixiejuju! I get disappointed too. but the scale is still moving down. I cant eat near as much as i used to. We will get there.
