    Before

    I just had a normal blood drawl but I'm not diabetic and I didn't have any other health issues.

    That's a mind willpower adjustment. You just have to do it. Throw away all the junk in your house and replace it with protein handy foods. Find some good recipes and try them out. Make it fun. Good luck!

    Hello and welcome to our newest forum!

    Oh exciting! I can't wait to see how much trouble I can get in in there!! "NO you will NOT grow an inch but your just gonna lie about it anyway so what's it matter.....pinkie"?!
  13. 1) I had a catheter placed during surgery and removed before I woke so I never knew it was there, I asked. 2) I put my clothes on that evening. I had the nurse hep-lock my IV (Unhook and cap it) until I got dressed then she hooked me back up. 3) no one was allowed in the recovery room but my husband was waiting for me in my room when I was done. Depending on your hospital. I was in a recovery room with other patients so it's a privacy issue. I wasn't in there long once I woke up, maybe 15 min. All of these are my hospital/surgeons procedures, yours may be different ask your bariatric team they should be able to tell you. Good luck!
  14. No,they are probably just busy trying to figure out and a just to the new life. I've seen people come back after long breaks.
  15. Yay!exciting! Good luck! (My go to is and has always been premier protein in chocolate the ready-made ones)

    FAILED GASTRIC SLEEVE SURGERY

    You can't tell from that. It pretty much says you have narrowing of your mid stomach from the sleeve, it's doesn't say the amount of narrowing ..looks like you will have to wait on the dr who has your x-rays and can compare the size to a normal stomach. That report pretty much says everything is normal but nothing in regards to the actual size of your stomach besides "Mild circumferential narrowing of the mid body". That's not saying much.

    Will power

    If you just stick with it, it gets easier once your body gets use to it. Just don't go to long between shakes (if that's what you get?) drink lots of water if that helps? ( that's didn't help me because water has always made me more hungry but it helps for most people) I eventually had to break down and get some zzzquil because I was wide awake at night thinking about food so I would take a dose and sleep all night. I also stayed away from food, smell ect as much as I could. I eat in my room a lot while the family ate.,all in all it stinks but it's totally doable. I never cheated and it was over before I knew it. It's also fun to Brag about later

    I've stalled... Help!

    If you haven't taken measurements already do so. Sometimes the scale isn't moving but your still losing inches.

    Your clothes must do a great job at hiding because I don't see anything.
