Food Before and After Photos

Huh?! Never heard of anything like that with mushrooms. I’d think since they hold moisture that they wouldn’t crisp up? I love mushrooms so I’m interested!! -

Omg sounds so good!! Salmon is my fav. I’m going to write these down! Thank you -
Miralax. Put a scoop in your coffee in the morning. Does the trick for me. It’s gentle too.

I have not but I NEVER eat at Burger King. I have never been a fan of BK. Even back in my fat girl days of eating fast food. Whataburger was my go to fast food burger joint. FYI in case some of y’all haven’t tried this, Morning star has an awesome chipotle black bean burger! The best burgers are the ones my hub makes me at home on the grill (of course bun less) but they are sooo good! -
Restrictions after Gastric Sleeve
Kris77 replied to tandrews's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I should add it was 3 years ago so maybe my memory isn’t exact on when I started driving to the store lol but I just remember it not being long before I was out and about. Best of luck to you for a speedy recovery😊 -
Restrictions after Gastric Sleeve
Kris77 replied to tandrews's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I didn’t have any restrictions per my surgeon on driving. I’m sure every surgeon is diff and patient should follow what their surgeons wants. I Didn’t need to take any pain meds so once home on Tuesday I was driving to the store by Thursday. Surgery was that Monday. Although I Had a really easy recovery so prob lucky in that respect. -

Same. I like the cookie and actually scrap the inside out and throw away. Although I really don’t eat them since my sleeve but a few times. They don’t do much for me. I have a huge sweet tooth so my list is long of other things lol -

Weight loss Success Journey
Kris77 replied to MarissaD's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Congrats!! You’re doing awesome!! -
I’m 46 and the new age recommendation for colonoscopy is 45 for your first screening. So when I go to my well woman this year I’m going to ask about getting orders for one. So many more cases of colon cancer in younger and younger people. Crazy. Not sure how it’ll be trying to do the prep as my stomach isn’t “normal” anymore.

Same on the word “moist”!! Lol Journey-I’m guilty of saying that word on here. 😳😱🤪

Looking for thoughts and recs for breast + arm lift.
Kris77 replied to questin's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Hey@Questin I was sleeved in July 2018. I did wait to get PS until this last Jan 2021. For me it was a goal i set for myself pre sleeve. I told myself. Get the weight off and get to goal. Once to goal keep it off for a whole year after getting to goal. I did. And then I ended up waiting some more time after that...I waited longer bc of several reasons. Did research on surgeon I wanted and when the time was right. I Just did a breast lift w augmentation and a full tummy tuck a few months ago in Jan. Best decision next to getting sleeved of course that I e ever made. Very happy. I’d say research your surgeon well though. You will see there are a bunch of awesome people in here who had done their arms done and had great results. I’m in Texas and used a surgeon from here. Dr. Mahlon Kerr. He is in Round Rock, Texas. He is amazing and I’m so happy with my results. I wish you the best on your PS journey. It’s exciting and such a reward for all the hard work put in. Let us know what you decide to do so we can follow your PS Journey too! -
TMI, but concerned about bowel movements
Kris77 replied to ShoppGirl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am pretty far out from surgery and still have bouts w constipation (7/2018 sleeved) When it happens I start putting a scoop of miralax in my coffee in the morning and if it doesn’t work the first day it does by the second day. Works for me.
