mabinty replied to jenleigh526's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was so thirsty I drink that stuff like it was strawberry milk lol!!! That what it taste like too me even doctor was laughing. But I was like u I thought I was gonna toss my Cookies never happen. Good luck -
I stay an I love it!!! I don't have any medical problem. But I did like the fact u got xtra care. The shots they gave to help keep your blood thin the leg thing you wear to keep the blood flowing. I love my nurse checking up on me got me moving around. If Iwould have went home I would have not gotten all that pampering. I had no problem when I came home. I had gas but it was not bad. I am now 2 weeks and 2 days now. Oh yea the next day I did my barium swallow doc came by twice to check on me. I love my doctor and his pa they r awesome. Anyway the best of luck to u and don't worry to much about the stay.

15 day And not losing anything!
mabinty replied to antetz's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Sound like you r doing great but remember we are suppose to drink with are meal. It make the food not stay in the pouch, And this is how we lose weight by keeping the food in the pouch atleast 3 to 4 hours and also they said my doc we can expect to lose 1 to 2 pound a week some people1/2pound. I wish you the best of and the weight lost so far is outstanding -

mabinty replied to antetz's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I don''t think you are suppose to drink with your meal!! It move the food thur the pouch which cause you to get hungry. But hey you are doing great. They say we will lose 1 to 2 pounds a week some people only lose 1/2pound. You could be losing inches Good luck to you -

mabinty replied to Doc'sWife's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You will be ok trust me!!! Have your food then the next meal will be your protien drink. I am telling you I am so glad I cheatesd because you will not beable to eat after surgery I had my Surgery on Nov 22 today I got to get soft food. I am doing so good I have to cheat to keep my piece of mind. All those shake started to tast so sweet to me. It take me all day just to finish a shake now, So it hard after to get in your protien just be resonable that all. Good luck -
