    Recycling

    This is a great idea Vegas. I will be needing lg. tops soon instead of 1X. I'm only 5'1'' and have to wear short pants or capris. I'm going into size 20 or below. I am down 14lbs already. I would be happy to pay postage. Thanks.
  2. Trudy, How are you? Hope you are ok. Judy

  3. Hello Mari,

    How are you today? It was so nice to meet you. If you are ever down this way let me know. Maybe we can share a lunch or something. Keep us posted. Judy

    My VSG Story

    No, Dr Aceves said to enjoy whatever you like within reason. My husband and I had grilled burgers and fresh cut fries. So good. I had a banana later for a snack. I didn't want to push anything very spicy before surgery. Then you shouldn't eat or drink anything for about 8 hours before surgery.

    My VSG Story

    Nancy, I stayed the first night in a hotel, surgery the next day and stayed 3 nights in the hospital. I will try to edit and make it a little more clear. My husband stayed in the hospital with me. There was a large soft leather sofa in the room. Thin, You are right, we always blame our husbands. LOL You know they are the ones that made us fat in the first place right?

    Glucerna Shakes

    Does anyone know if these are on Clear liquids? These are the diabetes ones. They are 200 cals. for 8 oz. 10 grams soy protien My daughter brought me a case of 24 strawberry flavored 8 oz bottles. She told me to drink these because they had everything I needed including vitimins. She works for a diabetic dr. and said they recommend these for thier patients who are not able to eat well.:001_huh:
  7. Hi Helen, I was looking through the photos and saw yours. You are doing great. Very nice pics.

    Glucerna Shakes

    Thanks Vegas, I guess I knew that. Just not thinking clearly yet. The spinal has not helped. I keep having headaches. Everytime I bend my head forward or try to lean forward, cough or sneeze, terrible pain shoots through my head. I had my blood pressure and sugar checked yesterday and they were normal. I guess I just need to take it easy for a few days until it wears off. Thanks!

    Lentil Soup

    This sounds so good. Can we have this on clears or full liquids?

    home!

    Hi Ivy, I'm so glad to hear that you made it home ok. You are right the flight back was terrible. Overcrowded, crying babies, restroom out of order, delays. I loved getting home to my own bed too. It was very nice to meet you and I hope we can continue to keep up with each others progress.
  11. Cristine, Welcome to VST. I just got back from my trip to be sleeved by Dr. Aceves. It is just like cajun says. You can't go wrong with Dr. Aceves and his team.

    Ipod giveaway

    Thank You Chancie. I was hoping it would arrive today or tomorrow. I could take it with me to Mexicali on Wed. so all the sleeve sisters could share it with me.

    Hello :)

    Welcome Josephine, You have come to the right place to research. You will have a lot of people chime in here today with answers for you. I am being sleeved on Thursday by Dr Aceves. From my understanding his sleeves only hold about 4 ozs. Wow, 10 oz is a lot to start off with plus you will be able to hold a little more than that as time passes.
  22. Hello Jennifer and welcome to the VST family. Congrats. on your date. I love your birthday gift. It is the perfect choice. Looking forward to hearing all about your journey.
  23. Shanda, Thank you so much for sharing your success. It is an inspiration for the rest of us. I look forward to hearing of your progress. Hugs, Judy
