Lifeafter40

Wow thanks I am going to find that

Thanks I had two last night and they were to good to be true. my daughter so happy because she can have the rest

I have popcorn at home but to afraid to try it and I am 13 days post op. Please don't try it just wait at least 6 weeks post op.

Three years sooner but I am only 13 days post op. First day after surgery I wish that I never did it to much pain. I love not being able to eat a lot and not stuffing myself on holidays. I am hosting the Fourth of July this year at my house and I am so excited. Guess what no over eating for me. I actually love being sleeve

I put my scale away so I want stress myself out however will weigh again once I am 1 month post op tomorrow I will be 2 weeks post op and lost 19 pounds.

I am 12 days post op and the only pain I get is in the middle under my breast. At the top above my abdominal area about three inches. It's a sharp pain that last about 30 seconds. Oh boy it hurts, I just want to know has anyone experienced this pain. It's no specific time when it hurst or after, before I eat, walking just confused

I forgot to ask my Doctor during my follow up, How long after WLS you can start having sex? I am 11 days post op and my man is seriously questioning me lol.

I am allowed to have soft and puréed foods. So what are the signs that your sleeve don't agree with the food choice? This might sound crazy also how do you know that your full because I am just scared to overeat. I just stop eating please help I know the question is crazy but it's the truth

Hi everyone I was sleeved on Friday and today is Monday and I am still in the hospital. Still have vomiting issues and both hands are swollen from the IV still in a lot of pain. My stomach doesn't look bad at all. I pray that I can go home today. I can't say that I regret having the surgery because I believe this to shall pass. Please send me up a prayer

Hi everyone I was sleeve 3/20 and I purchased Coco butter firming lotion to help prevent loose skin. It may not 100% prevent it but at lease I am doing something to help. Start using a firming lotion of your choice before the weight start falling off but if you hadn't reach your goal start using its not to late. I lost 120 pounds on weight watchers but gain it all back however I didn't have loose skin because of the firming lotion and I used Jillian Michaels No More Trouble Zones DVD for 7 months and it worked. This is totally from my experience and since history repeat itself I am doing it again but want allow history to repeat with gaining the weight back after surgery because I feel that God gave me s second chance to get it right????????????

I am 9 days post op and I want to try scramble eggs so bad. I am tired of liquids however I read about so many people eating eggs at this stage. Help????????????

My doctor said three weeks for spinning classes

Seen my Doctor today for my follow up and she stated that I could have eggs. I went home prepared the eggs and they were nasty broke my heart

I love premier protein shakes all flavors

I want everyone to please join me and treat yourself to a full body massage???????????????? If your were sleeve in 2015 please join me. This was not an easy decision, going through all the ups and downs with family, doctors, insurance company or whatever you had to deal with, please respond if your with me. I am praying for over 100 replies????????????????

I am 9 days post op and still on liquids and can't have yogurt. Well just take it slow

Yes I am 8 days post op and it gets better. I still have stomach pains associated with gas sometimes. I still have pain when I drink water remember we are in the healing stage

I had my surgery on the 20th as well however I am still on liquids, have my first doctor appointment on Monday. I get 90 grams of protein in daily but water see that's my struggle but will start keeping a count to see how much I am actually getting in and plan to do better each day.

I went home yesterday 3/23 however I don't wish this pain on my worse enemy. I pray the pain go down hill from here.I guess is the first two to three weeks are not easy at least not for me. Will walk for 30 minutes because I feel cramps in my legs and will sip sip sip on protein last but not least you do gain after surgery but I hear people say it will go away

My surgery is in seven hours and I can't sleep. My nerves are kicking in and I am so disappointed that I didn't get the promotion for the second time. Last time I ace the interview but I needed more experience, this time I failed the interview but I am doing outstanding in my performance. Was trying to make manager but Supervisors with less experience got the promotion.

Surgery went fine was in a lot of pain yesterday but today is better. I have the hiccups and tired of eating on ice can't have liquid until tomorrow when I go home

Had surgery yesterday I am in a lot of pain

They are on number 3 and I am number 5 this really sucks been here 5 hours already and no surgery and I am hungry

Thanks everyone and I am still in my room waiting to be taken into surgery but will keep my sleeve family posted

Headed to the hospital today is the day please send a prayer up for me
