Nobody seems to be addressing my ADDICTION to food...
Tink22-sleeve replied to NurseMom's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have 2 suggestions. My nut had me take up a couple of new hobbies to keep the munchies at bay. Ive been practicing playing the guitar and knitting. This helps alot. I also see a therapist that specializes in eating disorders and food issues. This has been a huge blessing. Best wishes to you! -
Is it true that we should drink protein shakes within 20 minutes of mixing them. Has anyone else heard this?

OMG! I HAVE SO SCREWED UP!

I agree 'the truth shall set you free.' I myself am a terrible liar, so its just easier to be open about it. Be strong! -
What did you do when you were scared post-surg?
Tink22-sleeve replied to TheLCSpencer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When I am feeling uneasy about the surgery, I come to this website. I read and respond to posts and that helps. What helps me the most is to stop by the chat room. Sometimes I get the support i need. Other times I get to support other and that helps the most. Good luck!! -

I use whey 60 available at GNC. it mixes easily and doesnt have a funny aftertaste. -
What vitamins are you taking?
Tink22-sleeve replied to latice19's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am taking a chewable multivitamin (dont like it very much), 2 calcium chews , b12 sublingual, and biotin- all from GNC -
I have to take 3 meds besides vitamins and supplements. Did you have to take extra meds also? If so, did your doc let you swallow them or did you have to crush them? If you had to crush them, what did you mix it with, and how long did you have to crush them? Thanks for the feedback

Hello all post op sleevers. What medication did the hospital send you home with for pain control? and was it a liquid or a pill? And did you crush it or swallow it? Thanks for the info!

Sooo Sick Of Protein Shakes!
Tink22-sleeve replied to Strangefruit's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
2 suggestions -- Try Isopure from GNC - its more like flavored protein water. its kinda sour, but different from regular protein shakes. Also Carnation instant breakfast just tastes like chocolate milk. Good luck! -

Tink22-sleeve replied to Rileysmama's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Men are clueless! Talk to him about it. Walk away and meet him in a store. But overall, men suck! LOL -
