    This is awesome, thanks. The visual will help; I’ve been trying to prep but the size thing just doesn’t seem to register. I think it must be one of thos “gotta live through it” type things

    Hobbies?

    njgal replied to sleevedshereen's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

    What a neat idea... are there others who do this and you try to find theirs? How does this work?

    My surgeon cleared me for tylenol only. Check with your surgeon’s office.

    Thanks for these kind words... it’s the anticipation that’s making me nervous! How are you feeling today?

    This is awesome and I’m grateful. Once I’m post-op I will likely take you up on your offer. I remember reading some of your other posts too. Such a positive influence!

    Already? Wow... that’s great, not just the loss but that you’re feeling good too of course. You should be proud of yourself!

    Things you wish you had

    njgal replied to Millerlight's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Another thing that seems to be varying surgeon to surgeon... mine said it’s OK to shower if I feel up to it right on the day of, if need be. Ugh... sorry, just realized this is the bypass thread... my bad

    GasX strips

    njgal replied to reenz07's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Funny, I really didn’t think they work but my surgeon’s office recommended getting them too so maybe I’ll try Amazon if I can’t find them nearby.

    I feel so funny.. OP is on Tuesday and I feel like I'm wearing my current clothes for the last time... as if I'm going to come out of the hospital suddenly wearing size 2s.. hahahaha, I guess I'm already living 6 months ahead of today.

    I’m borrowing this idea from someone else but I heard “how to walk in high heels” lessons are being offered so I plan to get me some good [emoji151] and make use of that class!

    Quick question

    njgal replied to chica320's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Yep, same here. The insurance coordinator would know but if you don’t hear from them call them or your insurance company to follow up.
  17. njgal
    Oh no... I’m 10/10
  18. njgal
    I’m fine, thanks for asking. However, I assume you didn’t mean to ask me?
  19. njgal
    Very kind of you to say, thank you. And onwards we go!

    Pre-op class and pre-reg was yesterday 10/4... surgery is 10/10
  25. njgal
    Oh and I had my pre-op yesterday as well. I ended up asking a whole bunch of things but also whether he had ever “lost” any patients. His answer satisfied me. He was very calm and collected about the whole procedure; I mean he even went into detail warning me about the quirks of the hospital so I don’t get upset the day of. All in all very considerate I’d say.
