Newly sleeved. Slow loss
emtobin75 replied to Wendydarling19's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I also stalled at 2 weeks. So 2nd week nothing 3rd week nothing I was so obsessed with the scale I kept asking my husband what am I doing wrong why why why. Then I just read all the comments and others story's and they are right stop obsessing with the scale and stop feeling down it will go away and you will lose again. I'm so thankful to say I up my protein and 3 1/2 weeks letter I'm losing again. So I'm a slow loser but better then nothing. I don't mind loosing a pound every other day or so. So hang in there and listen to others that have been here and done that we are lucky to have their support. Keep going it will happen soon. -

Can drink easily since day 1 - anyone the same, did restriction kick in?
emtobin75 replied to roguegambit's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also don't have a problem with drinking fluids but it is a choir now to drink the protein shakes. But I stay pretty hydrated I just have to remember to drink it's hard. So I don't have issues with it I'm 5 weeks out and do feel the restrictions with food. Purée but liquids I can take bigger gulps of. -

Not behaving myself...
emtobin75 replied to judy vsg's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm a month out and it's hard for me to eat slow. I will eat things that are on my list but I can never wait 5 minutes. It's hard for me and I do try but I feel like it's not hard for me to swallow which I'm scared that I stretched out my pouch already. So I feel you I to feel hungry but it's the times I'm just bored and I try to keep busy. It's so hard and I understand. I hope you remind your self that you can do it and you are make the right moves. -

Lotion with Vit. E AND Keratin?
emtobin75 replied to magoosmom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I use Palmers it's not really helping I also tried jergens firming and Nievea as well but they both gave me a rash which was odd cause I never had that happen to me so I'm really sad that I can't use them I'm going to try that bio oil.

Surgical glue to close incisions?
emtobin75 replied to nakole73's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It took me about 3 1/2 weeks to heal and the glue came off as I started washing it more in the shower. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App -

I was approved really quick. I have anthem BCBS but it's the doctors office taking so long. A month later I still don't know when I'll get an appointment. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App
