    Dr Review

    That is great! I used Dr. Tiffany Jessee at Suncoast Bariatrics in St Petersburg. She is amazing. I have already referred 4 people to her

    Vitamins - Yuck!

    I loved the chewables but they are pricey. I switched to capsules this time.

    Portion Sizes

    So I went back to portions size by weight rather than volume and I dropped 5lbs last week. It is odd to think that I am that far off? I know I haven't been doing this for more than a few months but wow. Anybody else have this issue?

    Support from family

    you gotta do what you need to do for you. I don't expect any negative feedback but did not want them to worry. All fo my friends and work family have been super supportive. I hope you find your tribe who will support you. I highly recommend a support group. your dr can point you to them.

    Pre-op Protein Shakes

    overall BMI does not correspond to fatty liver necessarily. basically it is a precaution to ensure they have as much room to operate as they can

    Exercise

    I do 30 mins every day, switching between cardio, strength training and abs/yoga. I run when I can but it is hard with my schedule. The time is changing this weekend so I can go in the morning before work

    Support from family

    I actually haven't told my "family" yet. They live out of state. I am however going home this weekend so it will be interesting to see how it goes. My father is elderly so I did tell by brother I was having a procedure done in case something happened but I did not tell him what.

    Time off work

    So the notes from your doctor do not have to be specific as to cause or procedure, HIPAA prevents that. basically all they need to know is your Doctor is giving you this time off to rest and recover.

    Vomiting Vitamins

    this was the first type I had. I ordered some from here but they are gel caps. hard to swallow. I will go back to these once I am done.

    Relationship issues 2.5 years post op..

    tell him to get on some meds if he is blaming his illness, get on the bandwagon or shut up. DO NOT let him steal your joy! PLUS you are letting your kids see that it is okay to treat someone badly if you continue to accept his behavior. Good luck!

    Autism and sensory issues

    yeah the texture issues are bad for me as well. I cannot eat cottage cheese at all, pureed or not. took me WEEKS to get down yogurt.
  24. My biggest thing would be YOGURT. Have always hated the sour milk taste and no matter what brand I tried I could not get past it. THEN I found OIKOS Lemon Meringue! Top with sugar free Cool Whip and VOILA it is Dessert for breakfast!
