Christian Zaccone replied to Rebellious Butterfly's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
bring bars and crysta light packs.. plus 1-2 months out you must be close to solids.. get permission to go to solids a bit early.. CHEW CHEW CHEW and eat 4 ounces of chicken, fish or tender steak, Protein is your number 1 priority.. Chris -
Mine required a 3 mo plan.. Thank goodness .. I am not a good waiter. Try and lose as much as possible to get rid of fatty liver. You will blow away your goal weight.. try 150!! Kid you not though all are different.. You will hear that 1000 times on here. Chris

Christian Zaccone replied to hopeful2 be slim's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A lot of people go from lap to sleeve. My Dr won't even do lap anymore. So I'm glad you did that .. U might still have some gas from surgery being 10 days ago.. That is very normal.. Walk a lot to get that gas out.. Thats the only way . Chris -

Christian Zaccone replied to hopeful2 be slim's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
can i confirm.. you had your surgery almost 3 years ago and have lost like 20lbs total?? I guess I'm confused by that.. Maybe your stats are wrong or your restriction is wrong.. Just asking how that works... Chris -
HMMMM.. Corn is extremely hard to digest anyways for the "normal" person.. I wouldn't do that again .. Im sure u figured that one out by now.

I threw up in my sleep :(
Christian Zaccone replied to donaboss's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
if u have acid reflux or "throw up" while laying down. Just means you ate and went to sleep to fast.. At least i found that was the only time i had the issue. So when you eat wait 2-3 hours before bed... then it should happen. Its Yucky! Thank god only happened 3 times to me before i smartened up.. Chris -
I did not but some do. ll depends on your surgeon.. They are no bg deal.. Only in you for a few days from what i understand
