    Social Drinking?

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to belluhfit's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I was told to wait a minimum of 3months post op. Had one wine cocktail on my birthday (at the 3 month mark) and felt tipsy half way through it.

    Good luck! I had a stabbing sensation from time to time while healing those first few weeks and was told it was likely scar tissue forming.

    Can't sleep comfortably!

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to Kayla Monee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I slept on our couch for the first three weeks. Eventually got back to the bed but it's totally normal to take a while. Hang in there!

    April sleevers!?

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to Simplyrosie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I had surgery on 4/24 as well! 14lbs from Onederland. My birthday is in late July and I can't think of a better present to myself than to see a 1 [emoji4]

    Planning a pregnancy!!

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to Nessa36's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery

    I was told by my physician to weight at least 12 months after surgery before getting pregnant.

    Plateau

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to splatno2's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

    Thanks!!! Will have to pick up some crystal light! I used to love the premier drinks pre surgery, but post op the lactose hurts my tummy. For my coffee fix I've been having an Iconic protein shake in the cafe flavor or make a protein shake with Chike protein powered mixed with soy or almond milk. Both are easy to order from Amazon.

    Plateau

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to splatno2's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

    What are you drinking for your fluids? I struggle with water and am sick of vitamin water zero [emoji20] shakes and soy milk are really the only liquids that I can get down fairly comfortably.

    how long did it take to heal

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to nana perez's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

    How are you all feeling? I had surgery on 4/24 and am just making it through my first stall (it lasted 2 weeks) I've lost 15lbs since surgery. Liquids are hard for me to get down and water is the worst. Super bummed bc I LOVED cold filtered water 24/7 prior to surgery.

    April sleevers!?

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to Simplyrosie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Hang in there! I hit my first stall at week 3 and it lasted about 2 weeks. Scale finally started moving again on Sunday

    Progress

    Seattle WLS Newbie posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

    Progress... 30lbs down from my highest weight when I started the pre-op phase #slowandsteady #makingitthroughmyfirststall

    Not enough calories maybe? Confused....

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to jbaker5d's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

    In the same boat, I'm around 12lbs down since surgery on 4/24. For the first two weeks post op though I could only get in around 400 calories a day. So far being on the soft food stage now has helped and (today I even hit my protein goal of 80g). Hoping that triggers some weight loss in the upcoming days [emoji4] keep me posted how it goes.
  17. Seattle WLS Newbie
    Felt great starting the day, but completely wiped out by 2pm and painfully tired by 5pm. Will sleep well tonight.
  18. Seattle WLS Newbie
    How are you doing? I head back to work tomorrow.

    Barrett's & MGB

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to flyingcarb's topic in Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery Forum

    First week was rough with lots of gas pain. Luckily no nausea, but the gas pain made drinking difficult. Started feeling significantly better each day heading into week 2. The biggest struggle for me now is fatigue and getting in my liquids/ protein shakes bc I don't feel thirsty. I never explored getting a MGB, just went with the laparoscopic RnY Bypass.
  20. Seattle WLS Newbie
    I brought loose PJs with me but ended up just wearing the hospital gown the 3 days I was in the hospital.

    Barrett's & MGB

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to flyingcarb's topic in Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery Forum

    I found out I had Barrett's during all the preop testing. Facing this diagnosis, I switched from wanting a sleeve to getting RnY. Had surgery on 4/24.

    How many months out from surgery are you? Good luck!

    What to take to the Hospital?

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to MoneeMoe's topic in Duodenal Switch Surgery Forum

    I brought my own robe, a pillow, hairbrush and some mascara. Oh, and my phone charger. It was nice to have the mascara as a little pick me up on Day 2 when i was feeling tired and sore.

    April sleevers!?

    Seattle WLS Newbie replied to Simplyrosie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Haven't had a problem keeping my carbs down bc I feel like I'm hardly eating/ have zero appetite. Today I had 1 1/4 protein shakes, a vitamin water zero, popsicle, and 1/4 cup of soup. Trying to up my protein consumption but the struggle is real.
