In other news I am not dead.



Recommended Posts

Seven days post op. My incision is not infected. I am not sick or throwing up. I have no fever and no pain.

I am obsessed about getting Water, Protein, taking small sips, not putting anything into my mouth the doc said not to, taking my nexium, getting lots of rest...etc -- because I literally can not afford a complication.

However. Just to let ya know. So far, if you're thinking about going rogue over the border ( with a GOOD surgeon) and no insurance -- seven days out and I'm still not dead. :)

Great to hear crosswind! I am also without insurance and went south of the border on the 3-28! I am feeling...actually pretty great, considering major surgery 8 days ago. ;o) Keep up the great work, this feels like the right club to be a part of! ;o)

Glad to hear you aren't dead. Is that considered a NSV? B)

That is great to hear! I am in a tizzy as I just found out I might have surgery in two weeks and one of my major questions is whether I would be able to work an eight hour event at 12 days....

So glad you are alive (and well).

Congratulations Meggie! You really crossed all your eyes and dotted all your tees on this one. I predict you will also be not dead very very soon!

Haha...I had to tell some people that they do have doctors in Mexico too! I'm almost 3 months out and feel FANTASTIC!

Congrats Maggie! If all goes well, we can share recup stories! I hope to be sleeved before the end of April.

So glad to hear it Crosswind. It's funny, you are two weeks ahead of me and I'm monitoring all your posts so I can kinda gauge how I'll be at that same point in 2 weeks. So keep the updates coming! And I hope it stays this smooth for you (and me in two weeks)

4 months out and besides kidney stones ( caused by not enough liquids and popping Tums ) I've had not complications either. Best thing I've ever done.

We all wish you the best and continues success.

Sounds like you are doing GREAT!

Keep up the good work and watch the magic of the sleeve work in your life.

Good luck to you!

I think I'd be more worried about going to Mexico than having the surgery. : )

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
