Never heard of it , some would say yes some would say no, the only thing I will say is , is it allowed on your plan?

That is not a joke no need to be rude, I am in the UK and they do not cover most people for 2 weeks after surgery, c section vsg and so on, no need to be rude and say my advice is a joke when you do not know were everyone lives has happened many times people in the uk get in an accident after surgery that is not there fault but insurance not cover them to even fight there case due to the surgery time frame , so how much of a joke is it really? What your saying in terms of opiods is to do with the police, not car insurance. In the UK you HAVE TO call the car insurance company you belong to to let them know you had surgery so what is the joke here? This is fact. It is not permission to drive, drive all you want but you may not be covered by your car insurance is what I said, I did not say anything about permission to drive . " At our age" LOL UK car insurance could not give a crap about you making what seems to be the right choice. They care about their policy to be covered or not. Not everyone in this forum is out of the uK so it would apply to someone who is.

Thats true. All well an good losing fast, but if you fatten up and dont make maintainance what good is losing fast?When I stall which i havent in awhile as im sick so cant eat lol i look at the fact you lost steady and kept it off and id rather lose steady and keep it off then loose fast and get fat lol

You are at 40 ten weeks, i am 42lbs 12 weeks and my team were happy with me so your doing great. yes comparing is stressful. dont do it. stalls happen. cant be helped aslong as your sticking to your plan.

In terms of driving, I would check your insurance. I was not allowed to drive 2 weeks on my car insurance, even though I was able to, but if you were hit you may not be covered having major surgery. I was in 3 days. Alot of nasuea and gas pain but keep up with pain relief and just take each day as a time, when you feel normal dont start rushing around as then you may feel sore and do not want to set yourself back take it slow.

Oh my goodness.. Someone suddenly has this problem at 3 months go to your doctor, it could be serious. I am only being like this because i wrote dumb posts when its obvs i needed to see . a dr and didnt lol been in hosp 2 weeks and i cant eat now it reduced like you described. I started with stomach spasms/contractions. Dont ask me my situation as it may not be yours but do go to your dr.

Thank you for the info , black people hiding from the sun wont help the already desposition situation, that is interesting, no offence but are you super dark? is it the darker you are the more likely to have vit d deficiancy? I think I am quite dark. but not super dark but never had an issue.

I am not the best at remembering vits, but you may not see the point, but you are not super human. It is a standard recommendation not out of thin air, but from research on what has shown bariatric patients need. Issues may not show up from day one, does not mean they never will.

It seems people are sayin your blood results may be fine but some things do not show up in usual blood work.. So .. How do you really know there are no issues if some things are not tested for? I am just curious?

Black people have low vit d due to race? Is it because alot of black people dont want to get darker so avoid the sun lol or is there actually an issue absorbing vit d? I know i put my arm out when driving and feel ten shades darker lol so i do not stay in the sun long lol were as my friends who are white love the sun , luckily vit d is good for now

May I ask the benefit of weaning caffeine if allowed on someones plan post surgery? I do not have it often but allowed on my plan. But just wondered if there was a reason.

Phew thank you ! Blame all the morphine I'm on for poor vision. Thanks for that I see that now now I need to know were in the uk I can get these when I'm well enough to eat as though I'm 3months out I'm unwell so not eating much.

Is that 96 grams of carb per one cookie?! Im not even low carb but that is got to be a joke. And per 100gram not per cookie. 16g of protein for 96 grams of carbs. Yikes. Not so guilt free to me. Interesting how people see thing's different.

I think while this is a good post. Many buy these products and like them. I hated nectar. Then tried again and love it mixed with something else. We all have different tounges so we may discourage someone from buying something there taste buds may like

Your plan looks appealing to me. I'm not eating currently because of I'll health. But when I start eating id like to follow this. Though I eat when well 3 ounces protein 1 ounce veg perhaps the fat and fruit can be for snack. I don't do low carb but never fit in fruit but miss it. Maybe you can think of a plan for me as maybe a female needs less. I'm currently 5 foot 2 205lbs goal 135lbs I don't exceesise due to bad health so probably don't need as much food as you.

Why are you angry before anyone's even said anything. You want help. But you'r asking us if we can stick to the rules why do we need surgery? There is no need to be rude. and I can't believe that is a serious question. I had this surgery because I needed help or I would have died. The surgery has given me focus. And I couldn't do it without it.

1200 at 3 months? Did I read that right

What an effort. Sounds interesting though. I've got two kids and I barely get time to eat nevermind making shapes lol. Would you do that at a restaurant? I was told to Finnish eating after 20 minutes. Were all told different things it seems

Lol. Alcohol is known for enlarging the liver..hmm can you have it when trying to shrink your liver and prepare for surgery? Glad you asked as its easy for no one to mention it in the pre op chat as it can be assumed as obvious. But good to ask. No drinking for a while. depending on plan.

I am just curious obviouslly its different for all, i have 80lbs left to lose and it feels like . a. it will never happen seems like such a big amount. b. it will take me 5 years so not point thinking about goals now lol just curious!

I know people are usually asking if it can expand, but found nothing about this. Can it shrink? I am 3 months out , and in hosp so have had issues eating due to a non sleeve related problem i am just unwell, over 2 weeks my food amount has gone down that last few days i have not eaten at all, but today I had one bite and was full, tried one bite again and was full. So my theory was over this 2 weeks I have been in hosp the decrease in food must have caused my sleeve to shrink? Especially the couple of days I went 2 days with no food. But just wondered if my sleeve has shrunk as I felt the fullness i used to feel after much more food of the same type. Thanks (Yes they keep offering me buildup drinks cal/nutrition drinks, but I do not feel I need them yet as bloodd work is good in terms of vitamins and I take my vits. I can't get my head around drinking my calories again i dont drink protein shakes now for abit .. )

My sleeve was its original size it had not been stretched, so i meant shrinking smaller than a normal sleeve not shrinking back to a size after being stretched if you see what i mean?

The 'sleeve' reset, is a pouch reset but i havent got a pouch i have a sleeve.. but i have seen the diet, why?

Ahh okay i love lettuce, only 3 months out well i usually do not had it in a while but that salad sounds amazing though .

I never said you said anything, jeeze i was just asking what this post meant as it made no sense to me, wow. well glad you reminded your self, sorry for actually not just scrolling past and actually responding. My mistake. You wrote it on this forum so I thought oddly perhaps something may have happened.. On this forum. I know strange thought .I will leave your thread now. Your response was quite defensive when I was only trying to get a clearer picture what you were actually saying , instead of just reading and not responding.
