Revision due to GERD
honeybunz replied to Nurse Crystal's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Thank you Grace🙏 My surgery was actually 2014. It’s been so long that I forgot 😛 I recently had an arm lift, tummy tuck & breast lift. Which is another reason I don’t want to do it. I take omeprazole daily. I have not met with another surgeon. I’m sure it’s inevitable though😭 -

Revision due to GERD
honeybunz replied to Nurse Crystal's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I had my sleeve done September 2016. I lost 145lbs. I now weigh 165lbs & my acid reflux has not gotten any better. I know I need a revision but I’m scared & my doctor moved away😭 -
BariatricPal Store Products now available at WalMart, Amazon, Jet.com and eBay
honeybunz replied to Alex Brecher's topic in Food and Nutrition
Please send samples with purchases. I love how Nashua Nutrition does that. It's a great way to try new products out that I would have not tried or known about before. Either way I will purchase from BariatricPal cause it has a special place in my [emoji173]! -
I fill up my 32 ounce hydroflask with ice, water & a packet of fruit punch crystal light 2-3 times a day. I also have at least 1 protein shake and sometimes a decaf iced coffee

I get dizzy when I haven't had much sodium. When that happens (daily) I go eat a few olives or drink some Powerade zero.

My parents met and married within a week and a half. They were married for 43 years when he passed 8 years ago. -
Is anyone's goal weight higher than the BMI chart weight?
honeybunz replied to her1981's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Yes, mine will put me in the overweight category but I'm ok with that. -
Pretty! [emoji4]

A rant about dentists, dental care, dental insurance and TEETH!
honeybunz replied to Sharon1964's topic in Rants & Raves
I don't think you should still be hurting. I only had pain the day of my surgery. I had my stitches & membrane out last week. It bled and was gross feeling that day but better by the next day. Hope your pain goes away! -

honeybunz replied to Sharon1964's topic in Rants & Raves
Omg, you were awake for your bone graft? I was put to sleep for mine. Felt nothing. It was actually quite pleasant. Except for the $800+ it cost! I'm having an implant in about 3 months (root canal that became infected) and that will be an additional $1,200. Will be nice to finally be able to chew on both sides tho! I feel ya on the costs tho. Can't imagine not having insurance! -
I love my rebounder!

My charge hr doesn't count my steps properly. It shorts me several thousand. My husband wore it and it worked fine for him. I wore his and was still shorted steps. For some reason it doesn't like the way I walk and I can only get it to work right if I keep my arm still by my side which is not comfortable to do. There's a whole thread on this on the Fitbit forums from other people who experience the same thing. I bought a Fitbit One and it works great. I love it!

I take one a day, Vitamin Shoppe brand.

The second most painful experience of my life..omg...this was bad
honeybunz replied to CowgirlJane's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Ouch! I thought gallbladder at first as well. Your symptoms sounded a bit like the attack I had before having mine removed. Do they know what caused your kidney stone? Now I have to go and Google it! :-) -

Do You Log Your Food?
honeybunz replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Yes! It's a habit now and I'm afraid that if I didn't do it I'd end up back over 300lbs again. -
Last thing I remember is being cold. First thing I remember upon waking is the pain in my stomach from the incisions and the nausea. I couldn't open my eyes but I remember shaking my head back and forth fighting the nausea. My fault though, I didn't ask for something beforehand and I should have known from past experiences.

Good luck!!

Hernia? Not sure what else it could be. Check with your doctor when you get back. GL! -
What’s Your Worst Post-Op Memory (or Fear)?
honeybunz replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I buy mine at Kroger. It's in the health food section. I've also seen it at Vitamin Shoppe. I believe she said she found it at Walmart. -
What’s Your Worst Post-Op Memory (or Fear)?
honeybunz replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I take 2 stool softeners in the morning and 2 at night. Things are much better now. If I skip a dose I pay for it. The tea mentioned above works well too. I have to use 2 tea bags for it to work though. -
