What are you telling people?
LizHenderson replied to mom2lscw's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Only a small group of people know. I think a total of six, maybe. It's very personal. The weight isn't flying off such that I look crazy. People see that I've changed my habits and that I work out. So, when I have been asked I say: I made a big decision to make better choices about taking care of my body. I don't eat fried foods, drink alcohol, consume sugars or eat large portions. That's pretty much it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app -

LizHenderson replied to AmandaTherese's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got sleeved a few days prior and I've lost 25 pounds. I'm hoping to lose another ten before the end of the month. I've seen stalls. Mainly because I couldn't have a bowel movement. After drinking some dieters tea it helped. Are you regular? Stay with the plan. It'll work. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app -

Has Anyone Kept Their Surgery A Secret?
LizHenderson replied to Dtrain84's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I've shared my procedure with very few people. Next week I plan to see friends. If they ask why I'm not drinking, I'll explain that I gave it up for a while to live a more healthy lifestyle. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app -

It's tough, but doable. I've put myself on a schedule. Maybe that'll help you too. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app

SOOOOO over protein shakes
LizHenderson replied to thabenski's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That's where I'm at; right between week 2 & 3 post op. I just tell myself that it's part of the process. Sadly, I don't even have a taste for anything. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app -

Sleeping enough?
LizHenderson replied to Fresh_Start17's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a little issue with sleeping. But, I'm only 8 days out, so there's still some swelling and incision discomfort. Have you tried sleepy time tea, or Tylenol PM? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app -
Do some cardio (walking, cycling etc), and maybe some stretches. That's my goal. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm in the same boat. Literally. But, I'm sticking to it. Maybe, try some different protein shakes, or mix it with yogurt and truvia to give it some depth. Hang in there, we'll progress quickly. [emoji4] Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app

First Post-Eating After Surgery

I think she could halt any weight loss and probably tear her pouch. The rules are there for a reason. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app -
First Post-Eating After Surgery
LizHenderson replied to lovedrotten's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
First, I'm wondering if she's hungry. I had my operation last week and haven't been hungry yet. Please encourage your sweetie to follow the rules, otherwise she'll damage her insides, fail to see results and everything will be in vain. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using BariatricPal mobile app
