Do you eat Yogurt? What brand? What sort of toppings do you add to it?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to scarletwitch19's topic in Food and Nutrition
I'm also a fan of the Dannon Light and Fit, the Greek variety kind. Has 80 calories and if I remember correctly, 8 or 9 carbs. The caramel macchiato is pretty tasty. -
(LADIES ONLY) TMI

Yes! I suspect it's the water retention. -
Throbbing in my sleeve?!
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to nicolewilliams's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Sounds like you ate too fast...causing a spasm. There's an app called 20 minutes that I use. Essentially you eat on a timed basis -
Ideas for soft food phase....

How long before you went back to work after your band to sleeve revision?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to adnlyn's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
6 weeks for me, but this was a personal choice. I didn't want the mental fog that sometimes happens early in the post-op period. -
1 week post op and feeling blue
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to tiffanyt's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Please don't feel blue. The reality is that the surgery is now over, and it will be so much easier to get to your weight loss goals. Keep looking forward! -
How do you all figure your goal weight
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to amsaf's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It may sound a bit vain, but my goal weight is my high school/college weight. I'd never felt happier in my skin back then. -
Alcohol - when?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to punklandia's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had a drink three days post-op, with no complications. The buzzed effect does hit you harder in my opinion, due to the smaller stomach. -
Weight fluctuation
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to thelakeisgone's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I would hope they would take overall weight loss in to account, no? -
Very Slow Weightloss! Starting BMI 33 - Data Included
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to heep's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My beginning stats are pretty similar to the OP. Although any weight loss is fantastic, yor chart shows substantial amount of slowing as time goes on. Perhaps cutting your carbs by 50% would help. -

The scale is not moving much these days but....

Looking good! -
Single Incision vs Minimal Incisions
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to Nikki Monroe's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
For aesthetic reasons only, I would have chosen this option if it had been offered. -
I've been having the same issue the last three nights in a row. For me, the timing of my dinner hasn't made a difference. It's nice to see that I'm not alone!

Good luck, and welcome to the board! -
Surgery after Blood Clots
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to Half of Bri's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm another fellow PCOS sister. Had a small blood clot to my lung and right leg (no cause found). Was on Xarelto, had it held for a week prior to and after surgery without any issues. -
May Sleevers, How much?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to Jessica Radcliff's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Technically I'm off by a day (sleeved 4/30), and down 34 pounds. No pre-op diet followed. -
Step back to your previous diet.

Tell the truth, exercising
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to judyoz's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I started walking after surgery. It's nothing special, but my boyfriend and my two Pekingnese puppies walk 5-7 days a week, about 45 minutes at a time. I'm not sure if it adds very much to my weight loss, but it's nice to all do something together! -
Congratulations! Dr. Rodriguez was my bariatric surgeon too (April 30th at Star Medica). You've made a wise choice.

Throwing up (sorry for the topic)
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to jhclikesshopping@gmail.com's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Interesting. I'm a little over 8 weeks post-op and still struggle with Mexican food (almost always comes back up). To answer your question though, I would not count it. -
I agree with No Onions, that small of a gain is almost always due to normal physiological changes. However, I do weigh everyday. I know many people frown on this practice, but it helps prevent any surprises!

I was instructed to not exceed 800 calories until my weight loss goal was reached.

Low blood sugar post-op. I've had to alter my diet some but no regrets!!!

What is one thing you use the most post-op
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to valcatlett4's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Crystal Light Liquid Mix (Strawberry lemonade flavor). It makes drinking water so much easier.
