15 days post op and vomiting
HappygoSusan replied to mamamia7's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
If you're vomiting, then something isn't right. I believe at 15 days out, I was still overseeing my daughter as she did the dishes, mainly because some pots and pans can be quite heavy and I was afraid of pulling something. Check with your doctor. Make sure you're following all orders, both dietary and physical. Susan -
I have no advise, just wanted to say, I wish you luck and hopefully your doctor will know how to get you out of this cycle. Susan

Has anyone lost weight without exercise
HappygoSusan replied to aNewLife14's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I met my weight goal by my one year anniversary, I just started exercising this summer. I had a body fat analysis done and found out that although I was at a good BMI, my body fat percentage was slightly too high to be healthy. I don't remember the exact number, but I know I want it to be in the healthy range when I go back in the bod pod, so I'm exercising 3 times a week now. Susan -
I'm 6ft tall and weigh 157ish. Vanity sizing got me into a size 6 jeans. I ain't hating it. Susan

what's the deal w soda? can i ever have it again?
HappygoSusan replied to Jeffrey Eliot's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
My surgeon said no carbonated beverages, so I have no carbonated beverages. I drank diet soda heavily before surgery, gave it up when I was banded in 2010, never went back to it even after having the band removed. I don't miss it and much prefer my healthy sleeve to a glass of soda. Now, coffee, real, caffeinated Black coffee, that I still miss. Susan -
Im having a panic attack about this 15 lbs gain
HappygoSusan replied to tdrew@live.ca's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is my biggest fear. I am 20 months post op and maintaining well, but I see others in my WL group that start a regain at about two years. I weigh myself every other day and have increased the time I spend excercising hoping to avoid this! Susan -
What’s Your Relationship with Caffeine?
HappygoSusan replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I am a caffeine addict, but gave it up cold turkey AFTER my surgery. I drank coffee all day, black please, extra strong. I couldn't stop prior to surgery, but haven't had any since. My drink of choice now is a decaf, non fat latte. Half a packet of Splenda , please. I think I'm addicted to that now, I have at least one a day. Susan -
Good luck to you all.

Anybody know why we crave these sour things post surgery?
-
Congratulations!

I was the same way with lemon juice. I craved it for a few weeks post op. I would slice lemons and suck the juice out of them. I don't think I did myself any damage and the cravings eventually passed. Susan

i need energy... Help
HappygoSusan replied to TeacherMommy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have no suggestions as to how to improve this, other than time. It took me about 6 weeks to feel back to normal. My energy levels went up when I was released to a full diet! Susan -
