Our Problem is...



Recommended Posts

Okay. Im a little unnerved that i keep seeing people here going right nack to the same eating style that got us into fat camp in the first place.

The gastric sleeve is a blessing and we should treat it that way. Why go through all of this if we just keep eating the trash we were eating before???

Being skinny now doesnt make us immune to health issues. We can still develop hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesteremia!

Dont live to eat, eat to live. food should no longer be our reward nor focus. Just eat whats necessary and dont push the envelope.

American values has us programmed into thinking food is for fun. Its not, its simply fuel for us to do things that are fun.

Come on people, we have to maintain a healthy lifestyle and stop toying with our health.

Peace and love to all.

Nicely put. I have to be in total agreement. Even though I am almost 3 weeks out since my surgery I am very mindful of what I eat. I find myself already thinking ahead of the healthy dishes I can't wait to make for myself as well as my family. I have always loved to cook but this just makes it more exciting. I am looking so forward to the new healthier me and the new recipes that I will be sharing. The Best is yet to come and not only will I be benefiting from eating healthy my family will be as well.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
