Is it ok to have a Detox before surgery?
DENTALSPIT replied to ahb08's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my doctor said not to do anythin like that , because the pre-op diet is the kind of detox you really need . since it is a low cal low fat diet and liquids for a few days before. -

Is this my body or the DOCTORS?IM FRUSTRATED
DENTALSPIT replied to baby deons mom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
when you decided to get your surgery ,it was pretty clear to be on a strict diet the rest of your life. it sounds like you are not eating the right foods or your not working out. i wish you good luck ,but take a look at your habits. before you judge the doctor. -
my insurance took the weight gain as a sign that i wasn't able to do a regular diet. so they approved me.

Does anyone know how much sugar alcohol you are allowed a day? I know regular sugar is 8 grams.

I know we are only aloud 8grams of sugar a day , but what about sugar alcohol. Any ideas?
-
i only told my mom and husband in the beginning. my brother only found out about it because i hardly ate at christmas. no one really needs to know about the surgery. i just told most people that i was watching what i ate and exercised more . good luck!

I had the same thing . My doctor told me that one of the stitches around my port may have come undone. I really don't think they no any thing but... It did go away .

Weird taste in mouth & other questions
DENTALSPIT replied to Britalian's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Protein makes you have bad breathe. I have had it since i was banded on 11-24-08. Also if you are having acid reflux that could be giving you a taste too. -
