The biggest stall ever or is it the end.
imgettinsleeved replied to laje4319's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgeon says only about 10g of carbs per meal. Try a pouch reset. Google or pinterest it it helped break my stall. Sent from my LGUS991 using the BariatricPal App -

Your body isn't going to let you binge eat. Its going to be super painful if you eat more than your stomach can handle Sent from my LGUS991 using the BariatricPal App -
so im scheduled for surgery oct 17th. i quit smoking with chantix about a year and a half ago but in the recent 2 months ive been thru some really rough stuff and started smoking again. im finding it extremely hard to stop again and i have my pre op appt on wednesday! does anyone know if ill be denied if i stop smoking only 3 days before my pre op appt??? my dr never said anything about not smoking and in none of the literature i have says you cant smoke but when i come on this forum i see people talking about it. im scared ive ruined my chances Sent from my LGUS991 using the BariatricPal App

smoking!

Well did you pass your nicotine test? Have you had your surgery?? Sent from my KYOCERA-C6742A using the BariatricPal App I told my surgeon I had been smoking and he said since i was honest with him he wouldnt do the nicotine test because apparently they have a no nicotine policy and that i needed to stop. I had the surgery oct 17th and have had 0 complications Sent from my LGUS991 using the BariatricPal App -
So I am 8 days post op and tomorrow I go to get my staples out and I cant wait! I feel like its just one more step getting me back to normal. I started my Vitamins today and ehh they are awful. i ended up grinding it up and putting it in my 2 tbsp of yogurt I had for dinner worked so much better than eating it by itself. I got the Bariatric Choice all in one multi its amazing I have to eat it 4 times a day but thats all i have to take it covers everything.Ive been craving mashed sweet potatoes (like the thanksgiving kind with brown sugar and marshmallows) so bad i may make some tomorrow. Anyhoo just wanted to share..I hope everyone has a wonderful night! Sent from my LGUS991 using the BariatricPal App

Halo Top ice cream
imgettinsleeved replied to kris2100's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
try sugar free popsicles as a treat for now and when you feel like you have more control say later when you're back to normal foods then try it. I tend to agree that its a slipper slope. Sent from my LGUS991 using the BariatricPal App -
Sports Shaker Bottle with BariatricPal's logo and name - would you be embarrassed to use it?
imgettinsleeved replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I wouldnt necessarily be embarrassed more than I wouldnt want to have to explain what it is everytime someone notices the name on it..then that would lead to details about my surgery and so on and so on..things im not embarrassed about but also aren't making public.

imgettinsleeved replied to mommabear2311's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
mine is october 17th and im finding the liver shrinking diet to be really tough! not so much the eating part but the non smoking AND barely eating AND no caffeine...i start out my day totally motivated its around this time that the idea of a cigarette and some warm coffee sound really great im trying not to self sabotage but im ready to just say f it and push back the surgery Sent from my LGUS991 using the BariatricPal App -
