No one ever told me I couldn't use straws either. I was using them within a week of surgery. No issues.

4 hour flight Post app
MrsHTX replied to genia_deanne's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I flew from San Diego to Houston. I paid a little extra for one of the rows with extra leg room and I was fine. I was worried about blood clots so I wanted to be able to stretch and move around. I had plastic bags also in case I got sick and couldnt make it to the restroom, but I was fine. I dont think you need first class. -
Tome off work - how much??
MrsHTX replied to baribetty's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was off for one week. I survived, but if I had it to do over again I would take two. -
New license or ID and passport or work badges.
MrsHTX replied to Krista27's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Luckily my license expired 7 months after my surgery so it was perfect timing. I'm concerned about my passport though. I dont think it looks like me at all anymore. I had just renewed so I''m dreading paying for another one. I've lost 85 pounds and oddly my wedding ring still fits just fine. I always had slim finger so I guess I really didn't lose any weight there. Same shoe size also, but my feet don't hurt anymore! -
Good luck to you! I hope all goes well. Just remember it will all be worth it in the long run!

8 months post-op, how are you feeling/eating?
MrsHTX replied to celeniavsg's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery was 5/1/17 and I feel good. Some days I eat just fine and some days I can only eat a little but other than that I'm good. It sounds like stress is your main issue and we all know what that can do to anyone. Hopefully once you get settled into school and get a routine going you can relax some and ease your symptoms. Best of luck to you! Just hang in there.- 1 reply

What was for breakfast this morning?
MrsHTX replied to etc. etc. etc.'s topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm boring. I had a chocolate Premier Protein shake. -
I'm 8 months out and mine still makes a lot of noise after I eat. When I'm in quiet places like work I try to eat very light to minimize it.

Sleeved in Mexico?
MrsHTX replied to Tallandcurvy30's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I was sleeved May 2017 by Dr Covarrubias at ALM in Tijuana. I got there on a Sunday and left that Friday. I went alone and didnt have any issues. I would do it all over again. -
You look great!!!!

where did you lose the weight?
MrsHTX replied to Mr Edwards's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
My weight came off my face and stomach first. My thighs seem to be more stubborn. -
I was off for one week. I survived but if I had it to do over I would take two. I have a desk job so I was seated most of the day but I was very tired.
-
You look great! I'm sure you'll reach your goal in no time!

Congrats! Hopefully your day will come quickly!

You look great!

Did your spouse's weight change after YOUR surgery?
MrsHTX replied to Polly Pocket's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Mine gained from eating my leftovers. -
Drinking liquids while eating.....still bad 5 months out?
MrsHTX replied to gwbicster's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 7 months out and I still avoid it because it's uncomfortable for me. If I drink too soon after eating I feel a lot of pressure as the food goes down. -
Holy shit...i don't know whether to cry or do a backflip at this point!!!
MrsHTX replied to xoxococojay's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Congrats!!!! I would be doing both! -
Chocolate Premier Protein
MrsHTX replied to lex2287's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Actually the chocolate one is the only one that doesn't bother me at all. Maybe after you're further along it wont cause you pain. Or you may just have to avoid it. -
Congrats! I remember how excited I was when I finally had a date. Best of luck to you.

How long before others noticed your weight loss?
MrsHTX replied to Polly Pocket's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
a few people noticed while I was on the pre op diet. But after surgery I started get a lot of comments within 2 weeks. -
Plastics or no plastics ?
MrsHTX replied to dreamingsmall's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I'm definitely getting my breast done when I get to one year post op. I will be content after that. -
Congrats!!!!
