Krystal0528 replied to Krystal0528's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Lots of sugar free Popsicles, cream soups an broths.. I also did protein shake for a while but I got burnt out really quick. I no eat the quest bars for my protein needs. Each bars had 21 grams so I do 2 a day, but I spread that 2 out all day since I can only take a bite here an there;) -

Krystal0528 replied to sandirufophoto's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved on 5/28, an in down 33 lbs! It has been an amazing journey so far, an can't wait for the more to come;) Still having hard time getting Protein in but I recently heard about click espresso drink, and ordered online. So looking forward to try it! NSV Since being released from hospital I Went from a size 22 to a 16! This is so amazing an I'm glad I didn't back out of doing this;) Good luck everyone:) SW 290 CW 257 -
Me an my hubby want to ttc very much but my dr is very persistent about us waiting at least 9 months before ttc. I was recently sleeved on 5/28, an I'm already down 33 lbs! Went from a size 22 to a size 16;) On another note 1 week after surgery I started cycle, an it lasts almost 2 weeks! That might sound bad to some but for me it was great considering with my pcos I never have a normal 1. To my surprise exactly 1 month later I start again;) Already starting to regulate! Congrats an good lunch on ur journey, an hopefully we will all soon have a bundle of joy;) SW 290 CW 257

How are u making ur protein espresso shake? What are u using? -
Hey ladies, I just turned 27 on Father's Day an I also have pcos. I have had since I was 15, but was never properly diagnosed until I was 23 an me an the hubby were trying to conceive. When I was younger the obg would say that my irregular periods were just hormones! As I got older it got so bad that I would got months without a period an then I would get one that would last a month! it got to the point that I would wear a pad everyday for that just incase... I would be ok in morning start by lunch an then get home in evening and gone again! Then wake up to it:( Horrible... Horrible... Horrible I tell ya! Fast forwarding to my current situation... My fertility specialist recommended the sleeve due to such a high success rate, so I got with my insurance company did requirements an got it done! I was sleeved (Laparoscopic) in Houston Tx by dr Scarsborough. Had surgery on 5/28/14 an started cycle about 4 days later, but it only lasted 2 weeks! Yea I no that sounds long to most but it was incredible for me, since I'm used to the 2-3 month one that's off an on! Lol.. I still would wear a pad just incase it crept back;) lol.. When I left hospital I weighed at 290 an today I'm 263, so that's 27 lbs in exactly 1 month.. But get this I'm 4 sizes down to!! Incredible journey so far that amazes me more every day:) Good luck to all of you, an lets kick pcos' butt!!! you, an lets kick pcos' butt!!! Oh yea.. I told everyone about my surgery! I'm a very blunt person an I can care less what they think. It's NOT the easy way out, thus is sooo much harder! I was very excited and anxious to get surgery done an my family an friends were to! They all new what me an the hubby were going through trying to conceive an were very supportive of my decision.

Has Anyone Developed Acid Reflux Since Surgery?
Krystal0528 replied to Mom2IrishTwins's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes!! Sounds just like me! But the Pepcid complete has worked miracles for me. As soon as I feel it coming I take one an it must work instantly, cause It stops;) I even bout the generic cvs brand -

Krystal0528 replied to devint's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ok everyone, I haven't been on in a while. I have been on a stall the past week an half:( But finally went down again today;) getting all Water in, about 60% of Protein in but I'm trying. Working out doing lots if cardio but I'm thinking I'm gonna need a trainer because my arm are really flabby now! I'm a little amazed on how flabby with a 30 lb loss! Shocking... Sleeved 5/28 SW 290 CW 263 Also for a NSV: I normally would wear a 20/22 but went to mall an could fit in a 14/16!! I couldn't believe it;) All I can say is just because scale is not moving, were still losing in inches -
Has Anyone Developed Acid Reflux Since Surgery?
Krystal0528 replied to Mom2IrishTwins's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had a hernia repair durring sleeve surgery an I have to be honest an say I have never had an reflux or heart burn issues until sleeve an hernia repair. My first 2 weeks out of surgery I constantly would get if:( Now I get it a few times a wrk depending on what I eat but when I told dr about it he told me not to use Pepcid but Pepcid complete. It has worked wonders;) -
