My Very Personal Reasons For Having The Sleeve



Recommended Posts

I would say if you only weigh 230 you shouldnt need an extender. At least not on most AA flights. I was 284(and have very large hips) when i last flew and was able to buckle on one flight and only just barely needed the extender on the other flight.

I wouldnt sweat it :)

I don't know. I have a pretty big ass! LOL

Nice list Amber! I agree with all of it, especially flying. Since I am living in Kuwait now, we go back to the US for the summers, and those 13+ hours of flying are so uncomfortable. I am the only one in our family who doesn't get any sleep on the flight. Also, I feel so bad because my littlest one sits beside me, and he gets crowded in by me. Hopefully, I will have lost enough pounds by this summer to notice a small difference. I also can relate to the joke thing. I think I am the only really overweight person at my work, and I hate it when they all talk about how they are fat, when in reality they are thin.

Anyway, thanks for the list!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
