I totally agree! It's something person and you don't have to tell anyone you had surgery. You are losing weight because you have better eating habits. Good job!

Flying in plane
DarbiMolly replied to hopepeacelove's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am flying to and from my surgery. I will fly about 4 days post-surgery. BUT, they make us wear compression hose. You may want to look into that. -
This is NOT the "magic pill" I hoped for! I need help with my bad food choices ASAP
DarbiMolly replied to nmr's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Well, maybe you just said it "I have always been all or nothing". Maybe you just cannot deviate from your plan at all. -
breaking my pre op diet on the first day.
DarbiMolly replied to daw3378's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's important to stick to the preop because you need to shrink your liver for surgery. I saw another post and a few people said their doctor threatened won't operate because breaking your pre op could create a serious issue for surgery. Plus, isn't that what we all do, talk ourselves into bad behaviour? p.s. I'm not criticizing you .... just food for thought. -
Congrats! You are half way there!!!!!

You've lost a teenage girl! LOL. Congrats!

Hi, they want you to do a liquid diet to shrink your liver. Makes it easier for surgery.

Only doing pre-op the day before surgery
DarbiMolly replied to wablue31's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Oh my gosh, I have 4 weeks of preop diet!! 2 weeks of high Protein, low carb, low fat, 1 week of full liquids and 1 week of Clear Liquids. Sheesh. I started my preop diet today! Oh, and I just wanted to add, that I am the "standard". No patients do less than what I'm doing and if the BMI is high they have to do a longer pre-op diet phase. -
I'm in Ontario Canada. I'm 50. I start my preop diet tomorrow - I get sleeved June 30 by Dr. Pompa in Mexico. I'd be happy to share my personal e-mail if everyone would like to start a support group.

Preop liquid diet question
DarbiMolly replied to knitlil09's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Your blood sugar may be low? Usually when I get shaky that's why. Try half an extra shake, see if it helps? -
Thanks! That's super good info. So the SLIDER foods can be the DANGEROUS foods. I just thought anything would fill you up. Why don't slider foods fill you?

DarbiMolly posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
If anyone is from Eastern Ontario and would like to start a support group, let me know. I am in Kingston, Ontario -
Anyone from Ontario (Belleville, Kingston, Gan, Napanee) area? I'd like to start a support group.

I guess if you don't eat heslthy foods it creeps back on.

True friends would be there for you .... if they aren't then they aren't true friends. Hope you feel better with that vent!

How are you managing to eat enough food to gain that weight? I thought the sleeve was really small?
