Surgeon's office doesn't communicate much.

Mine awesome. I went monthly and they kept track of diet,etc with baritastic app. Got scolded if I did not journal enough. They sent kudos when I lost weight,still do. 2 months after surgery. I have Dr Hanna,Las Vegas. A real gem,makes me laugh. -
Benefiber to get daily fiber up and lots of water. Getting fiber in on this diet is a struggle. No taste,put it in my water

The scale is finally moving again
Pjj431 replied to Excited for a new me's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Glad it’s moving,so frustrating. Body just needs a plateau for a bit I guess. Did you check to see if you lost inches instead? -
Weight your food if you can. I find I sometimes forget I had surgery and just start shoveling it in. Definitely not worth the pain that’s coming if you over eat or eat to fast.
-
Oh stay on diet . Not work the pain. I know it’s hard I could kill for a baking powder biscuit! Hang in there you got this!
-
Stalled here also at 6 weeks. They say it’s normal. Body adjusting I guess. Bet your losing inches instead! Hang in there
-
Oh no,so sorry. You poor thing. I am sure they will get ya up and running,just a downer with all these complications. Remember in the end you are on the loser bench with the rest of us. We are rooting for you!

Ty great info
-
Wow high blood sugar because of low potassium. Great info. Guacamole ? It has potassium and my sugar has gone down. I am 6 weeks out from surgery now and try to eat avocado daily. Thank you for the info. Hope you feel better soon!
-
Sorry you had such a bad experience. Sugar should fall once you lose weight,at least mine did. It did go up on me but the liquid Tylenol I had was not sugar free. Vitamins had fructose and as crazy as that is I think it affected my sugar. Stopped the chewable ones and sugar is down. Maybe just a coincidence. Just keep tabs and take care of yourself. Sounds like you need some pampering.

One day at a time. Back to protein drinks 2x a day maybe and 1 meal. Try eliminating your sugar and bad carbs. Be patient with yourself!

Preparing for surgery, very scared. Tips??
Pjj431 replied to SargentSkittles's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am 67 and had no problems. Gas pain from surgery,and low energy for a couple weeks is all. Just follow Dr instructions for pre op and post op. -
How about B12 patches,or they have B12 spray for your mouth. they have water that says liquid IV. Got on this site. Helped me .anti nausea pills do not work?
-
Awesome job!
-
As you lose weight,you probably will be able to get off meds. My sugar also ran high. I did take liquid Tylenol and that had sugar. Also my chewable vitamin had fructose and that seemed to raise my blood sugar. Give it a bit,bet it will come down.
