Any New Jersey Sleevers on here?
LaJodster replied to mcplu28's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Dr Procurat did my surgery back in June at Centra State Hospital. He's amazing, caring & concerned about his patients. I love him to death for "saving" me with this procedure! And he smells wonderful all the time! Lol!! -

Think i hit the infamous 3 wk stall...
LaJodster replied to mi75's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 3 1/2 weeks out and I think in in a stall too! I have lost 30lbs so far so I'm not complaining but I've been "stuck" at this 30lb mark for a few days now! I hope this passes quick! ???? -
Besides water? I know we can have Crystal Light, power aid zero, etc.... But every flipping thing is fruit flavored! Ugh I hate fruity stuff and all the fruity drinks give me heartburn! I'd kill for a huge diet Pepsi with a ton of ice and a lemon slice in it right now! I know I can't have it but I'm so thirsty for something that tastes good right now... :-(

Protein Supplements, what's good, whats bad?
LaJodster replied to MommyMeghan's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Go to Nashanutrition.com they have samples of almost every protein shake & flavor available! Honestly it was the best thing I ever did. Flavors I thought I'd love were eh and others I ordered for the hey of it I loved! Well worth trying before buying a huge one! -

I was sleeved on 6/19 and have lost 21lbs so far and feel great! Tonight I got a little cocky and ate (a small amt) of something I shouldn't have & ate it too fast, well after some pain and throwing my guts up I'm ok! But I won't do THAT again! Lesson learned!

June 18th Sleevers?
LaJodster replied to newgirl2014's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
1 week follow up with my doctor, everything looks great and I'm down 14lbs this week! Yay! So happy! On to full liquids and I even had 3 bites of yogurt for dinner!(glorious after a week of clear liquids) So happy I did this so far! -
JustJaime5 I'm doing ok thanks! The first couple of days were rough with the gas pain but today marks 5 days out and I feel pretty good. I'm so over the clear liquid diet! I go back to my surgeon tomorrow and hope to move to the next phase. I'm not really hungry except some head hunger and according to my scale I'm down11.8lbs since last Wednesday! Still having a tough time getting all the water & protein in but I'm trying! No buyers remorse here, but I miss chewing!! Lol Baby steps, I know!

June 2014 Sleevers Check In!
LaJodster replied to SnohoGal98296's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was sleeved June 19th and haven't really been hungry until today! I'm on clear liquids until Wednesday, I can't stand the isopure drinks so I know my protein is low. What else can I have? Today is the first day of headaches too. I feel really weak....
