What are you treating yourself to once you hit your goal weight???
droynickel replied to xoxococojay's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I have a long ways to go, but when I get there I am going to go parasailing and horse back riding with my family. -
I just spoke to my nutritionist yesterday about gum and she told me that sugar free gum is perfectly fine. I am 3 months post op so I am not sure at what point they say it is ok, but she said it is fine.

Did your Dr tell you No STRAWS? No SODA?
droynickel replied to Fibro Queen's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 3 months out and have just started using a straw. My nut said after 1 month it is fine to use a straw but I still waited a little longer. Soda is a big no no from my nut. I also was addicted to my diet soda before surgery and I know if I try it I would just be going down a bad path of drinking it a lot again so I do not want to know if I could handle it or not. -
Over 400Lbs Gastric Sleeve Success Story
droynickel replied to jasminem89's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Congrats to everyone! I had my sleeve done on July 19th. I am about 2 months out now. I started at 441 and and currently at 374. This is one of the hardest things I have ever done. I have to keep telling myself that it will all be worth it in the end. -
I am new to this board. Lots of very encouraging stories on this one. I just got sleeved on 7/19. I am doing pretty good. I am almost down below the 400 mark for the first time in a long time. Looking forward to continuing down this journey and I just want to thank all of you who have shared your stories. It is very inspiring to see what I have to look forward to from people who were as big as me. Keep up the great work everyone!!!

I am also late to this board. I had my sleeve done on July 19th as well. Doing pretty good. I am definitely ready to start with adding some meat into my diet tomorrow. I get to have tuna with light mayo and chicken and turkey added to my diet. Keep up the great work everyone. This is a hard journey but will be well worth it in the end!
