Vomiting question possible TMI
GreenTealael replied to muavomu78's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
As stated by the other wonderful posters, the Foamies or Slimies. Super common. I used to have to avoid sitting upright too quickly in the AM, instead I would roll to the side and wiggle out of bed at an angle. Something about the 90 degree angle compression on my abdomen caused the nausea. Eventually I was able to get up normally. Very rarely ever get nauseous anymore. Safe Journey 🎈 -
GERD, EGD results, and Sleeve vs. Bypass?
GreenTealael replied to carolinafirefly's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi, I don't know what your insurance is like but usually the approval of surgery and coverage is very specific (based on the surgical coding) so you may not be able to simply substitute or change it at the last minute (surgeon maybe able to under extreme emergencies during surgery). You may want to check on that first. Next speak with your Surgeon one more time and tell them you are strongly considering RNY now, get their feedback. Seems like you've done all the research and have all the information, no one can make this choice besides you and the surgeon, together. GERD can transform into more serious conditions, I personally would not have risked it. But you must do what is absolutely best for you. Safe Journey 🎈 -

Hard boiled eggs lol -
Try pre shelled seeds instead, I know it doesn't satisfy the oral fixation the same way, but it will put your mind at ease to know there is no possibility of swallowing shells accidentally. Safe Journey 🎈

Reached A Mini Goal!!!

Pre op? Bowel movements, or lack thereof will significantly impact (pun intended) weight/weight loss. Speak with your team or primary about resolving this issue quickly.

Jan. 14th: My biggest NSVs so far are both related to travel and lifestyle. I am a minimalist and a backpacker. When traveling prior to this journey I always had to bring my own towel which was a bath sheet (the biggest one). This took up so much valuable backpack real estate it was a crying shame. I also had to travel with way too many spare bras (44H) just in case something happened while away, knowing I would not find my size easily or cheaply. Now regular towels wrap around/close just fine and I can rest assured that anywhere in the world will likely carry my new and common bra size (38D/DD) GRATEFUL BEYOND THE SCALE
