    Heartburn

    I started taking prilosec three times a day and at night I take a zantac. It seems to help more.

    Before Pictures

    These are before pictures that I have found. I was not fond of having my picture taken before surgery because... well the answer is obvious. I cannot believe the difference in just the few short weeks. WOW...

    Skim Milk

    Yes. It is my favorite drink now. Prior to surgery I never really drank it but I love it now. I like that it has the protein in it and I can drink it and doesn't cause me problems like other drinks.
  6. sitting here at school. I cannot wait to be done. It is something that I need to complete but I want to be at home with my family.

    One Month post op. Feeling pretty good.
  9. So proud of both my kids! Their dance studio took studio sweepstakes. 13 of 1st places and 3 2nd places. Payton's team took first place, Ari Mae Ervin's team took 2 1st places and one 2nd place! We love Inspire Dance Studio and Whitney Jensen-Hidalgo

  10. I had sugery on 2/10 and I have had the same knawing feeling in my stomach. I am taking 3 prilosec per day (total of 60 MG) and a zantac at night and have been good the last couple of days. My GI dr gave me a prescription for Nexium to try but my surgeon suggested 60 mg of prilosec first.

    Hate To Eat Now

    I am feeling the same way. I am 6 weeks tomorrow and I would just rather eat soup. The other big issue that I am having is that I cannot tell if it is hunger pains or if I am having issues with acid. I had really bad acid reflux prior to surgery and about day three post op it got really bad. It is not good because I think it is hunger so I eat and then get sick.

    Poopies?

    I have to be honest and tell you that while I was on my pre-op diet I was miserable becuase I was constipated. Then after surgery it was the opposite. I even had a time when I went I would get sick to my stomach and throw up so I have been all over with this issue. Thank goodness I am back to "almost" normal. I am almost 6 weeks out. I have days that I don't go which is not normal for me. From what I have been told is we are eating a lot less then we used to so you should not be going as much. Hope that helps.
  17. I am so stoked. I have been watching airfare prices for our Disney trip in May. Today Jet Blue dropped the tickets there to 1/2 price. So I bought our tickets to California today and then get to buy the return tickets on payday! We are going to Disneyland!!!! HOORAY!

  18. So hopefully my husband going back to days will help me get to sleep earlier. We will see... So far it hasn't worked...LOL

    Having To Rethink My Choice Of Surgeons

    I was sleeved by Dr Verboonen on February 10, 2012. I had surgery in his clinic (I would have preferred the hospital). I am 5 weeks post op and doing great. I had two other friends that were sleeved by him the same day and two other friends that were sleeved by him earlier in 2011. We have all had good experiences. Unfortunately there is not alot of referrals that share their story about him, which is very sad. I feel like he should have more referrals and good things said. His surgery price in the hospital is $5400. He is a great doctor and very personable. If you have any questions you can always PM me.
  20. I am wiped out. Ari left for the weekend so my mother came and helped me finish Ari's room. Friday night I was up until 2:30 in the morning. Last night I did not last as long and we finished it this morning before Ari Mae Ervin just got home from her ski trip. :) Glad it is done.

  21. What an awesome weekend. The kids did great at their competition. Today I had some major spring energy. I cleaned carpets and made some yummy food. I had some cucumbers and mango's. So what did I make some yummy mango cucumber salsa. Then I made a yummy crab salad! I am now watching a movie with the kiddos. Love spring time.
