Thanks!!. My brother-in-law is a chef and I cook as well..so, we should be able to make the food thing work... I guess... I'm more concerned about the toll on my body.... I missed one of my naps today... Me = a mad baby!!! (pout and all!!) LOL

Hey Guys... Well, let's see... I'm feeling great, trying to remember NOT to do too much....My appt was w/ the NP in my surgeon's office.. Really nice lady...She removed my staples, checked my vitals.. My BP was pretty good (Thank You Jesus!!) - 133/82 .. It was running pretty high... Respiratory stuff is good.. She thinks the mucus thing is a combo of reflux and my compromised Resp system (had pneumonia in the spring and several bouts of bronchitis since then).... I now take Prevacid 2x a day, instead of one. Everything else was cool.. (besides an oozing, weeping incision near my belly button!!.. no infection, just a lot of Fluid coming out.. ) she wants me to keep up w/ the meds and keep moving.. OH... I now weigh.... 341!! That's 19 pounds less than my surgery day!!!! YEAH!!!!

Hey!! I was sleeved 10 days ago by Dr. Gerald Cahill in Evergreen Park, IL... E'thing went great... after the first night and initial "move from hell".. from the bed to a chair!!! No complications since being home short of gas pain and acid reflux... Lost 19 pounds so far per my 1st pre-op appointment today!! Happy New Year!!!! Yeah, we did it!

Thanks for checking in!!! Happy for you lady!!

Thanks guys!! Knee, I can do a little shimmy!! LOL... But, you have at it!!!! LOL

I called my insurance the day after it was submitted and the rep said they had received everything.... Then I called the next day, I was approved!! I would call myself!! It won't hurt!!!..

So last night, I ate a delicious dinner of chicken broth...it was scrumptious... about an hour or 2 later.. I get this funny feeling in my throat/esophageal area... Since then, I've had tons of mucus kind of lodged there... I've had tons of Water, warm water, hot water, tea... HELP!!!! Is this the infamous slimes or something else??!! Please advise.. Thanks

My appt. is at 1pm.. I'll let you know..

I took 6 weeks... I go back Feb. 1...

Congrats guys!!! And burp queen, feel blessed!! It took me 2 days to finally burp!!!! Speedy recovery all!!!

Hey Guys!!! I was sleeved about 10 days ago... I'm feeling pretty good.. Got some reflux issues going on... Hopefully, they will be resolved tomorrow at my 1st post-op appointment.. How are you all??

I've ALWAYS loved shopping!! I hope it doesn't get too much worse!!! I have 4 closets of gorgeous, PLUS size clothing that I have to part with... I'm okay.. I think.. .LOL... I'm praying that I can find something to wear to my dr appt tomorrow... Unlike a lot of people, I don't have multiple sizes of clothing.. I've been the same size for 8 years!! I may have 2 sizes.. both of which are too big! YEAH!!!!! I have a few more weeks before I go back to work, so I'm hoping I can find a few nice things in 2 sizes at a time to tide me over.... Here's to SHOPPING!!!

Thanks!! I wasn't told to do 10 puffs/hour... but I'll start using it more... Congrats on your weight loss...

I don't know.. I haven't deviated from the clears... My fluids go down fine.. It's just that glob of phlegm feeling.... It's not enough to throw up or spit out really.. it's very annoying and a little concerning.. And now I seem to have the sniffles!!! I was prescribed a PPI, but the once a day dosage doesn't really do the job.. So, I will speak w/ him about that tomorrow... I really believe it's the excess acid and mucus... Thanks for your responses!!
