how much time out of work
attitudefree replied to lucygoose's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You will be fine. I was lucky and had extra time built up. So I stayed out for 3 weeks. I loved having extra time to pamper myself and get use to my new stomach. You will LOVE your sleeve- congrats on a surgery date! -

I heard this same thing earlier this week. I figure lose the weight first and then tackle the new problems. The extra weight is a major health problem- looking older isn't -

I am in the mushie stage of the post op diet. Last night I was eating refried beans and had a couple of bites too many. OMG my stomach talked to me! There was this really loud growl --lol--unlike anything I had ever heard before!!! I interpreted it as my stomach saying .... Put that darn fork DOWN!!...lol. I think I am going to have to name my new friend.... any ideas? -

This past week wasn't so good for me. I cheated a little here and there and found myself eating more than I should be. Sooooooo I am taking control early- I got the calorie king book and I am writing everything that goes in my mouth down! I will conquere this weight battle!

I am only 2 weeks post op and am very pleased that I have lost 30 lbs since i started the pre op diet. But I look in the mirror and can't tell I have lost any weight at all!! Do others have that problem? At what point can you and others really tell you are loosing weight. Right now people say "you look great" but they aren't sure if I changed my hair style or what the change is........

I tend to get really hungry in the late afternoon and early evening
attitudefree posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have noticed that I am getting really hungry in the late afternoon and early evening. I think I am going to change drinking my protein shake from first thing in the morning to mid afternoon -- hoping to not get so hungry. Any other suggestions? -
I wouldn't hesitate to do it all over again- no second thoughts what so ever

LOL Bill you made me laugh!

We had our annual Octoberfest Party last night- probably 100 or so people here. I have lost 40 lbs and people really noticed. It was a night of compliments and I loved it!!!:thumbup:

I am a month post op and everything has been going well. A little scab on my incision fell off after my shower yesterday and now this serous fluid is draining from my incision. Should i be concerned? I think I will give my surgeon a shout today but just thought I would post it here too.
