    Opinion on Dr. V

    And he's entertaining, but my team is solely responsible for my care, so I consult them about everything VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167

    I like the texture scale too VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167
  5. I'm a firm believer that husbands wives and young children sign up for the bariatric package (some dietary changes have to occur in their lives too) everyone else like mothers, fathers, adult children, sisters, brothers, roommates, etc they can support in other ways VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167
  6. I have no eating disorders and real hunger...It ALL varies by personNo i agree, you can't always rely on people but the least they can do is not get in your way. Also not everyone will lose the hunger sensation and even more interesting I just found out today by another poster, sometimes vitamins can increase it. https://www.livestrong.com/article/488651-vitamin-b-complex-and-weight-gain/">https://www.livestrong.com/art...min-b-complex-and-weight-gain/ VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167

    Opinion on Dr. V

    The only info I gleaned from watching his YouTube was to incorporate more plant life into your diet, which my team advocates also, other than that I think he may be a great gateway tool for people that are just casually thinking about surgery, when you are serious you visit an actual surgeon and follow them VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167

  10. Very easy in theory, but in practice not so much (something I constantly have remind myself before I hand out an easy inspirational response )Some people are dealing with a range of eating disorders, and they are hoping that during this MOST difficult period where everything is changing, they are literally starving pre op or they are in a lot of pain from surgery and could *easily* given in to prior behavior, their families would help make it just a little easier, by changing just few eating habits also or at least eating all of their junk in the car on the way home...

    Not Protein Driven

    I have no problem staying at the 60g but I guess there is a little flexibility , I wonder if somedays I don't have to worry so much and I can focus on vegetables only? I guess that's what I ultimately want to know.

    Fiber insoluble vs soluble

    I used to make chia pudding in the early post op stages too! I used coconut milk and peach pureed together. So good. But know I just toss them every where. Prior to surgery I used to do tumeric shots, now I just cook with it. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167

    Dry skin

    Can you visit a dermatologist? Dry skin can have internal causes but also external factors occur (moisture barrier damage) Are you hydrated enough? This will affect your skin tremendouslyAside from that about once every two weeks i use olive oil in shower (like Neutrogena shower oil) but its food grade and absorbs well into my skin. I have seen other been mention Bio oil, Egyptian magic, and I know for a fact raw honey (manuka specifically) has healing properties for the skin VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167

    Anyone try bananas? When?

    I'm adding .5 banana (frozen) to 16 oz unsweetened almond milk and matcha powder and chia seeds, as a breakfast smoothie Just started last week instead of premier protein shake VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167

    Fiber insoluble vs soluble

    I have a dry gallon of them on my counter (they have been there for 6 months no issue -1/3 of the way done now) so I add them to everything, dry.I cook then into bean dishes, falafel, salmon croquettes, smoothies, on yogurts, in salads. I add a dry sprinkling to almost everything (they fluff up quickly depending on the food it's added to) that hempseed, and tumeric goes into almost everything I eat. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167
  24. I'm struggling through drinking filtered tap Water. I'm trying to psych myself out by pouring it in a fancy foreign bottle... VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167

    unprotected sex a week before surgery??

    I don't mind babies, The OP may not either, but I'm certain the design flaws of condoms has to be one of the main reason why people don't use them. I just wish some thinktank would fix the problemVSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 167
