Trouble with bowel movements
dcostella replied to MaggieAL's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
OMG! I have had problems with this also. I am 10 weeks post-op and I have to take Dulcolax every other day or so. Nothing else works. It's very frustrating. I never had this problem before. This has been my only downside. -

Congrats! You look amazing. You should never let anyone define who you are but yourself! If they aren't supportive, they don't need to be in your life. Only surround yourself with positive people. You look awesome! Show yourself off! -
What did it taste like? Did you mix anything in? Add anything to it? Make it a smoothie?

Anyone booked for 10th June?
dcostella replied to MillyMollyMandy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am booked for the10th! I can't wait!! My surgeon doesn't require a liquid diet, just that I don't gain any weight before surgery. I had my first Protein shake this morning. It wasn't too bad. I got it down no problem. I have my pre-open June 4th. -
I just tried my first protein shake. It wasn't so bad. I was able to get it down

UC Davis has been wonderful!!! I had Kaiser for about 4 years and changed to Davis last year. Kaiser was horrible with my Fibromyalgia. They wouldn't even talk to me about WLS but Davis was great about it.

That's awesome! I am glad we are all close.

HelenaMarie83 didn't you say you were from Sacramento? I am also. My surgery is through UC Davis.

Please add me also if any of you would like - my name is under dcostella. My surgery date is the week of June 9th. I don't know the exact date yet. Also, does anyone know how to print your daily logs from My Fitness Pal? -
Surgeon recommended roux n y, I was thinking sleeve
dcostella replied to suekistar's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I really love hearing everyone's stories. I have just started my journey but they are fast tracking me and I am supposed to have surgery the week of June 9th as long as everything comes out OK. I have been thinking of doing this for the last 6 months and have researched the heck out of all of it. I originally also thought I wanted to do the sleeve but when I met with the surgeon he wants me to do the bypass because it has a better success rate. Nancy E. I also have Fibromyalgia. I know it won't completely get rid of it, I just hope this helps with my joints and other issues. I also am on heart medicine, have high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I am hoping this helps with everything. I am very excited and I can't wait to have my surgery. I KNOW I will succeed and do what I need to do to get better. This site is wonderful to talk to everyone! All the support helps. -
That is awesome. Everyone on here is an inspiration to me. I hope I do this well.
