Anyone having surgery in Oct ?
s0rda replied to Jenaenae84's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I just wanted to share my NSV this week. I am a student and being 400lbs (highest weight) you don't fit in the desks. Wednesday night we had to move around and sit in groups, this worried me because I have special seating but for the first time I actually tried to sit in the desk and I fit. I was so happy and it felt really good because I don't see the weight loss but this was a confirmation that I'm doing something right. I really hope everyone has had a wonderful week and will have an even better weekend! Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

Hey Ron I love spicy I add fresh chiles when I can for example today I added an anaheim chile to my chicken soup which gave it a nice flavor, downside the skin on the outside is tough even after boiling I just scrape the inside out. For store bought chile I buy herdez green chile, really nice flavor or tapatio I'm not a fan of Sriracha. If I have time I make my own chiles using dry or fresh chiles it just depends on what kind I want. Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

I posted a screenshot of Bariatric Advantage's order form I hope that helps @@395Ron I take their Vitamins I enjoy the calcium chews and I have the multi Vitamin in pill form the only downside for me is on an empty stomach they make me nauseous. I've tried the chewable multi vitamin from them it was chalky but I didn't get nauseous. Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

Hello Ron as far as the vitamins go there are 2 versions you can buy one has 250mg and you have to eat 2 chews which look like starbursts and have my 2 favorite flavors raspberry and lemon. The 500mg you only take once a day I think the best flavor for those is the orange. I will look for the online information and post it. I hope this clears up a little of the confusion that is me lol Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

5 weeks post op and I'm down 30lbs. I went to buy a new pair of jeans yesterday and I'm down 2 pant sizes, it feels great because even if I don't see my weight loss the proof is in my clothing. This journey is far from over and far from easy. I'm taking it day by day, hour by hour, and really learning how to put what I need first. The protein and water intake is a pain in the ass but it makes me take better care of myself. Weird side note, before surgery I disliked coffee. Now I drink one every morning. I take a premade premier protein vanilla shake add a teaspoon of instant coffee and some ice. The vanilla is sweet enough that you don't have to add anything else, but for flavor I recommend adding sugar-free syrups. Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -

I'm feeling much better. I was released yesterday evening from the hospital. They felt I was doing pretty good so they removed the picc line. Right now just trying to stay hydrated it's so hard for me to get all my fluids in. How do you guys do it?I carry a vitamin water and a regular bottle of water with me all the time but the vitamin water seems to go down easier than regular water. I think thats so weird but it's true for me. Sometimes I drink tea. I think it's almost like a tolerance, the more you make your body do it the more it listens. I try to remember to take a sip every 15min. I think it's really just a learning process and a lot of trial and error. Some days you aren't going to get all the fluids in that you need and some days you will. Best of luck! Sent from my SM-N915P using Tapatalk -
