Oh come on Fluffy - We are human and Pushing the envelope is human nature! I know i did it with M and M's God that was miserable. was down and out for hours. So the bottom line have you learned your lesson or would you like more string cheese? We all did it, But dang out of all the things to test on that is a tough one.

VSG cramping after purees, otherwise I'm a bottomless pit for fluids
AJ Tylo replied to jason2483's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Take your time moving to the next phase we all are different, Just because they say 2 weeks your body is the time decider. Go with lighter and less. Just take a little at a time over 30 min. If you are cramped or does that mean you are full stop. This is a pain in the ass to figure out, how much you can handle and how fast took me a long time. No reason to be uncomfortable so let your body tell you. -
Seen a ton of posts on this search the site - This works for me, however i rarely get sick now but in the past felt sick. Try Ginger candy or Ginger sticks and sea Sick motion pills like Bonien. For some it works The ginger sticks saved my ass i would just make a ginger Tea and wham not sick anymore -

Typical Try a fast or cleanse worked for me - I would not panic we all have been stalled.

WLS relationship issues: Very common, Just remember you did this to be healthy and it was the best decision, I definitely see a different attitude in my partners and my family. Plus throw on this freakin holiday stress and its game on. I just shrug it off as petty things and let it go, there is nobody stopping me now no matter wtf there view is on what pair of jeans i buy or eat. the say that over time it all works out, My brother is ahead of me by about 6 months with WLS and the stumbled thru some issues but all seemed to work out

This has become too much! PLEASE HELP
AJ Tylo replied to theexfatgirl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree no way my Two Teenagers are eating a slice of fish and some crushed veggie - I Find it easy to do the meal prep and sometimes will prep in theres also For example if i do skirt steak for myself i will slab off two big ole chunks for them also - Same prep but looks different - This is a hard subject and i fully understand -
10 days out - What's your single, best piece of advice?
AJ Tylo replied to RedDackel's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is a tool and you have to know how to use the tool! - Make sure the whole work shop is set up. Get educated, mentally tough, and ready for a great Journey. -

This has become too much! PLEASE HELP
AJ Tylo replied to theexfatgirl's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Feel it Same here but i ended the madness - Hope this helps I am a chef so cooking is easy and this double cooking was to much even for me - So i made it easy for myself 1. Go online to amazon and get Food Prep containers - 2. Then i just make my meals 4 at a time so i dont have to bother with them on a daily basis, For example today i have made 4 shrimp meals and they are ready to go, All i have to do is warm them when i do the kids meals. It is hard and frustrating, I also let the kids eat out twice a week so That buys two days. I run my own business also so i get it all done ahead of time For example today i just made a batch of Japense Clear soup - They will eat it during the week and so will I - Already packaged in containers and ready to be just served out GOod luck and get organized and it will be a ton easier By these three items to make life easy 1. Soup pot - Only buy this commercial one the others do not have the insert pan https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NRX4D1C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 2. Slow cooker steamer easy for all of you tons you can do with it https://www.amazon.com/Crock-pot-SCCPCCP350-SS-Programmable-Casserole-Stainless/dp/B01FJPS24G/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?keywords=Slow+cookers&qid=1575832511&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzQlhUSkFRQVU5MkVEJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMzY1NjM0MTFFT0pTWUFFMUYzTSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNjAyNTE4MUJZT0ZLMVBFSUlWSSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU= 3. Join Grub Hub or other meal delivery service - THat is for them and gives you a break -
Lol - I agree it is weird i make such little portions now and then leave half of that in the plate - Its the mental issue kicking in- That is why i am the founder of F@#ck Food

FYI Stress kills so start enjoying your new found life -

Hospital bill prepaid?
AJ Tylo replied to Tammygirl79's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes sorry for your confusion - They never let anyone know all the facts till the day before - I also paid cash for my surgery and it all had to be paid prior to the surgery. Hospitals are big business and they really do not care as long as the money is paid. Still worth it and good luck with the funds -
Seriously, who are these people that freely make comments about your body
AJ Tylo replied to Healthy_life2's topic in Rants & Raves
I agree as a guy you should have lit his ass up! Now that would have been funny - The gym seems to be a place guys think they can get laid? never worked out for me but they troll the area looking. This world has lost its mind -
I went to a fast and cleanse program and ended the stall

8 weeks out and it seems to take more than 5 oz
AJ Tylo replied to BQT's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Ok Fluffy has to have these posts in a a data base, No way she is just typing them. As for above post - Eat a good healthy diet and as small calories as you can. Really early to be weighing out every little piece of food -
Wow your nevouse - Nobody here was ........ Very typical and every single one of us was nervous - You have made a decision and a good one enjoy the journey but follow this advise You are being given a tool, but you and only you need to set up the workshop. Get educated, get prepared, and enjoy the journey

Hurts to drink water
AJ Tylo replied to mediocreoblongata's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Water sucks! I to this day struggle - Just slow and easy is all i can do -
You are 100% correct - See my long post on how i crashed. It is hard and some take it harder, Just got help and get back on track, I did it was not easy and i will say there are times i get confused about my decision. But look at it as i do .... We both would be dead shortly from some Fat Related disease, We both were not happy with our body/ and life sucked when we were unhealthy - So no way in hell now that we have busted our asses to get healthy are we letting a little mind games mess with us! Game on Mind - I will win

crush it and enjoy the check in - Nice
