Results of not taking vitamins
AJ Tylo replied to FAT2FLAT43's topic in GLP-1 & Other Weight Loss Medications (NEW!)
I was done last July and I did drink a little about 3 weeks out - When I mean a little i mean like a 4oz drink, Just to calm me down and get the journey going - Not that I am proud of this fact but now i can drink without a problem, It is easier to drink then eat. Not saying this is a good choice and I know it is not - but i love my evening drink and chill time on the back porch and i justify it by mixing a little vodka with Protein flavored water! (Ok Girls light me up I know its coming) -
Just not hungry...
AJ Tylo replied to MarvelGirl25's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Typical as can be... I lost my appetite the day i had surgery and to this day have to force myself to eat, I look at it this way - Better to set a timer to eat then be hungry all the time. I would let the doc know but mine said sometimes when the nerves and Hungry wires are removed it just does not come back for a long time. look at it as a advantage No hungry No food Faster weight loss -
90 days to full heal - Only a small percent get a leak and that is rare- Do not let you head play mind games you will do a test after surgery to see if it is all good Very Important order this and use it after surgery - Will definitely calm you mind https://www.amazon.com/RESPONSE-LFSGRYR16-Flex-Seal-Liquid/dp/B01GFY9X3E/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?keywords=Leak+seal&qid=1581412611&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyWVJDWjFBTzlCSTJSJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMjAzMTIxMkE4WjBKRTlCMllXRCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMTk2NDk3OU5CWkc1TFk1MUhHJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

Cheated on Liver Shrinking Diet
AJ Tylo replied to Xolosing's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
You are over thinking the little crackers MOVE on and get back on course - You can not get em back now so all you can do is keep getting healthy -
Actually no as you lose the weight you will be healthier so my vote is NO- Get really good with the vitamins and minerals - Do blood work up and keep your levels perfect

I wish i had done in the 70's I think it just gives you more capacity but not sure

Extra meal replacement shake on preop
AJ Tylo replied to Celeste kimberly's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Make a base or broth to sip that will kill the hunger - Saved my ass during that week -
The 700 calories is right on - I am amazed you can eat chicken this early but good for you- The only thing i see that seems out of line is The snack of milk - Try using almonds or veggies
-
I also take the fusion but i started on the capsules did not want all the flavors that the chewables come in. The capsules do not make me sick at all -

When does your mind match your body?
AJ Tylo replied to Sandra Nuelken's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I asked myself that question the other day - We are about the same time post WLS and the other day I took my kids shirt - Due to the fact I am still looking like a homeless guy and have bought little clothing till i hit the bottom weight, I went to my room and looked at the shirt and said no way going to be to tight, Put it on and it was actually a little loose. Not that I answered you question but i want the same answer also! -
One is fine I am a smoker- IF you are really worried go to GNC and get a flush out I did not have a nicotine test and smoked on the way to the hospital

Does your Total Daily Energy Expenditure change after WLS?
AJ Tylo replied to Vox's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That seems really high to me i do 600-700 calories - Your energy will not change if you 1. Get your vitamins and minerals in order and supplements 2. Sleep eneogh 3. The weight coming off will give you a healthy energetic feeling -
You got time make your own = i have found that making your own taste better and to your liking - With a Dairy allergy you may want to try protein waters - Sams has them or water soluble protein powders

You are correct my math was off! and to think I am a engineer -
Surgery was yesterday, rough first day/night :(
AJ Tylo replied to newchange16's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Broth is the key and If you have the energy make it yourself - The store bought stuff is loaded with Salt and chemicals - Sip slowly - I found Warm liquids were easier then cold water right after surgery - https://www.amazon.com/Minors-Chicken-Stock-Poultry-Flavor/dp/B01M1Y4899/ref=sr_1_33?fpw=pantry&keywords=Broth+or+base&qid=1581081636&s=pantry&sr=8-33 -
Pre-op Shopping list
AJ Tylo replied to Pansypicker's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Master the art of Making Broth and Bases = Nothing beats homemade base or broth after surgery = Hit Amazon LInk below that is the best one on the market - Seems a little pricy but you can make a ton out of that = I prefer the ham and Lobster base personally = Drank that for weeks after surgery = FIlls you up and does not bother your stomach - The bacon base may be to hard in the begining so stay away from that one = I would make two liters at a time and just warm it up https://www.amazon.com/Minors-Chicken-Stock-Poultry-Flavor/dp/B01M1Y4899/ref=sr_1_33?fpw=pantry&keywords=Broth+or+base&qid=1581081636&s=pantry&sr=8-33 -
Feels good and great job = Yes the journey has been fun

Surgery this month, wife threatening divorce
AJ Tylo replied to Xx1jpt5xx's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
That is totally a bully poop reason, We all eat normal food, Like tripe and lamb fries - (Inside forum joke) So she is way off there. I say just procede ahead and try and educate her on the real story. Kinda Hard to argue this one Honey i just want to be healthy and fit so i can live longer, When i said death due us part i did not plan on speeding up the death time due to being obese! FYI i will eat normal food but smaller portions -

If you are queer, lesbian, no label, poly......
AJ Tylo replied to bthompson82's topic in Singles Forum
Its not i truly would rather hang out with lesbian girls they seem to be more real! I have a few friends that are gay and i prefer going out and hanging out better then the Naples Princess's that are money hungry and a pain in the ass. Not stereotyping anyone but In Naples Florida it is hard to find a good girl who does not have a agenda to date. The word play could be conceived in another way it never was meant to. -
Sleep eating during pre-op
AJ Tylo replied to Celeste kimberly's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Do what i did to a x girlfriend - Put a Bungy cord on your ankle to the bed - It will wake you up -
Dont panic Try two cups of mashed potatoes and lets see how you do then! Actually do not try that you will be miserable Soup you can do almost 5 times solid food like said above the liquid flows right thru the sleeve -

Scary stuff.... i hope im ready for this
AJ Tylo replied to JAKE H's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Here is the link to the powder This stuff is great and will give you a boast of energy for working out, However be careful they say 4 scoops per shake start out slow with 2 scopes, I tossed the first few up with 4 scoops was not pretty, Also it takes a while to digest so plan on atleast 2 hours before a work out - IT does taste great however https://www.amazon.com/Redcon1-Chicken-Dehydrated-Replacement-Blueberry/dp/B072XT69DR/ref=pd_ys_c_rfy_rp_m_120_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B072XT69DR&pd_rd_r=R92AN26XEYJ7EN9YFNSV&pd_rd_w=SPnpU&pd_rd_wg=uKS6E&pf_rd_p=6ff6e24d-f86e-4f8b-a686-93fe454eac13&pf_rd_r=R92AN26XEYJ7EN9YFNSV&psc=1&refRID=N25DBAX2SJH5QWAPQ9T2
