Tssiemer1 replied to skinnyme13's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm May 10th!!!! -
Because healthcare is free in Canada and it's an elective procedure so it's a long wait.
-
Flying dries me out. Make sure you have lots of water!

How in the world have I gained 18 pounds in 5 days?!?!?!?
Tssiemer1 replied to Fatty McFatster's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I understand. I didn't have a kidney stone but I have kidney problems and I was in the hospital for a bad kidney infection and gained 15 lbs in 3 days. I was sooooo swollen I couldn't even wear shoes. Doctors said it was water retention. Took some diuretics and cleared right up. -
Is there a specific clothing store that you were gunning for once you reached your target/goal weight?

Old navy!! -
I have tried at least 10 different brands of Proteins bars. Premier Protein, pure protein, etc. I must say Quest bars are the best. They keep me full for hours!

A question about clothing...
Tssiemer1 replied to Sparkles!!'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had other health problems that prevented me from getting it in November. I figured I'd be ok with some t shirts and 2 pairs of jeans for the summer. I'm going to pack up my winter sweaters and fleece pajamas and then I get surgery give them away. -
I have something I found at Kroger. I've only tried the citrus.

A question about clothing...
Tssiemer1 replied to Sparkles!!'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm just so ready to get rid of all these clothes and get new, smaller ones. Last year I thought I'd be having WLS in November and got rid of most of my summer clothes but I'm not having until May 10th so that was a big oopsie lol. -
Not sleeping during the sleep study
Tssiemer1 replied to Rainy Days's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've had my sleep machine for about 3 weeks. It is still really hard to sleep. I always get wrapped up in the hose. Sometimes I have to change to a different mask in the middle of the night because it hurts. I'm starting to get acne where the mask is on my face even though I always clean it and use acne wash and astringent on my face. But surgery is May 10th. I can hold out. -
I didn't have to cut out caffeine however, my NUT told me it's an appetite stimulant and it would be wise to limit or stop using caffeine.
-
Good God caffeine withdrawal was worse than quitting smoking for me. But I did it. I stopped all soda and sugary drinks. I'll have a half caff sugar free coffee every now and then but I'm cutting that out soon too. My surgery is May 10th!

Good luck!

I probably go back and forth at least 5 times a day since I got my surgery date. It's May 10th and I'll probably go back and forth another 5000 times before I just do it. It's the waiting and anxiety that makes it worse. My main thing is the permanency which is the reason I chose the sleeve in the first place lol. That's about 60% of my anxiety. It's scary. It's a major life adjustment. Probably more than marriage. That's how I feel anyway. About 10% is surgery complications. About 10% is fear of failure About 10% is never eating (fill in the blank) again And the last 10% is the effect it will have on my relationships with my friends, husband, new people I meet, my family and what they think of me.

I like the genie bra. It lasts through several band and cup sizes.
-
My last holiday too!! My surgery is May 10th. I tried not to gorge myself. I've been on a diet for 5 months so I had a few bites of everything. Even some brownie. I got such a bad head ache as I have cut out most sugar.

Woot!!!! May 10th. Ohio here. I'm excited!! -
I think sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. You know? Caffeine is just an appetite stimulant is what my surgeon and nut told me. I can have it, but I "was warned" lol.
