I was not ready for the pre-op diet and messed up first day
ARMoma45 replied to Panda333's topic in Pre-op Diets and Questions
You'll be fine, stop stressing. That was just a tiny slip up -
Don't beat yourself up over it. Start fresh tomorrow.

Terrified I Won’t Lose Weight
ARMoma45 replied to Little Debbie 77's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm sure you'll do fine. As the previous poster said, you really don't have any option but to lose weight -
I'm 2 months out and still take my Omeprazole daily. I also had severe GERD prior to surgery.

Help! I think food is stuck in stoma between pouch and intestines!
ARMoma45 replied to Briswife15's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Definitely go to the ER. -
I'm 2 months out and can still only eat 3 bites of anything. Any more and i'm vomiting. Also, chicken almost always makes me sick as do raw veggies. I do well with omelettes.

Bad Taste / How to drink Liquids
ARMoma45 replied to nataliemarie23's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I"m 8 weeks post op and am just now able to get close to my water goals and then only sometimes. I didn't use those cups, I just sipped from the bottle. Gatorade Zero was my best friend in the first few weeks to keep from getting dehydrated. I haven't had the odd taste in my mouth. -
Ok y'all, tell me what kind of strength training y'all are doing to tone up post WLS. I had RNY 07/22/19 and need some serious advice. My biggest problem area is of course my upper arms but i'm also needing toning in my thighs and booty.

Post surgery strength training
ARMoma45 replied to ARMoma45's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for the info. I started doing cardio just after 6 weeks getting 10,000-12,000 steps daily and wanted to start adding in some weights. I'm staying away from anything too core related for a few more weeks. -
I'm 7 weeks out and struggle daily with meeting goals. I can exercise fine but just can't hold enough to get any significant protein/water. You're definitely not alone.

ARMoma45 replied to brandimichellexo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I cheated several times during my pre-op diet but made sure the be super strict the last 4 days and my liver was perfect. -
Once Insurance Approves Can They Take it Back?
ARMoma45 replied to lingre's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The only way I can see that happening is if your Dr or hospital fell out of the guidelines required by insurance...ex. no longer a preferred facility or maybe your Dr changed hospitals that he uses. The later happened to me and I had to decide if I wanted to change Drs or go with the original to another hospital. -

ARMoma45 replied to Krimsonbutterflies's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did both lol. Now that i've had my surgery, I can't see how those folks on that show actually gained weight shortly after surgery...it blows my mind. -
Welcome. As the others have said, spend this time reading and asking any questions you may have so that you feel super ready come surgery day. Good luck

Denied after being approved and devastated
ARMoma45 replied to Panda333's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
All your test results should transfer over to your new program. I had a similar experience with my insurance and was very near quitting but managed to hold on and finally almost a year and a half later got my surgery. Hang in there, it's worth the frustration. -
I stayed bloated for almost a month.
