Patient gains from loss



Recommended Posts

Taquela Hilton lost 137 pounds in 10 days, but her weight-loss method is not one she would recommend to anybody.

Most of the weight was removed through surgery Jan. 10 in the form of a 93-pound ovarian cyst.

Apparently she was trying to get her weight down to do gastric bypass and discovered she had this

Only in Tulsa could this happen. She'd been to many docs and they hadn't discovered this cyst. She finally went to a WOMAN doctor and she said that the lady's stomach was hard as a rock so she wanted to investigate. I think some of those other docs are probably sweating out a lawsuit. I once heard a case where a lady was supposed to have a fibroid tumor. When she went into the hospital, they put in a catheter and she lost a couple of gallons of pee. The doctor said she was just lazy!!! Apparently she was so lazy that she wouldn't empty her bladder. I say B.S. If you have to pee, you pee. She didn't have to pee which means something was wrong with her bladder. This was an old male doc who should have retired years ago. So many doctors are complete idiots. I wonder how they keep their licenses.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
