Can a Icee stretch your pouch



Recommended Posts

If you have gastric bypass please just ask your doctor about the straw. I would listen to him not veteran sleevers. There is more information on it online from doctors which include the ulcer comment. But it is better to just ask your doctor. I have a feeling if I brought back a doctors note on it. I would still be called a liar. Haters going to hate. Personally I could careless if you stretch your pouch or get an ulcer. I tried to warn you. Again this is to gastric bypass.

@"Ele Marie" You are commenting on a Thread that was initiated in the Gastric Sleeve Forum. The Veteran Sleevers are the people we look to advice from when posting in this forum. You have no experience in this topic - and in fact - 3 weeks post-op from Bypass that you don't seem to be following any advised plan (and admitted to lying to the Psych person to be cleared to have any WLS) you really don't have any valuable experience or knowledge of Bypass either.

I had know idea that I was on a sleeve forum? I thought this was for all weight loss surgeries. That makes a lot of sense. Is there different Forums on this app? Or do you know? I have been getting so beat up on stuff I say. Maybe that is why. Of course I know a sleeve person does not have a pouch. And my straw comment would not apply to them.

Thank you for letting me know this is for sleeves.

I will try and find my people.

Good luck on your journey and thank you.

That's deep.

You are right, of course.

The truth will come out in the end.

Thank goodness we have you here to guide us until then......

Oh, but she is an expert, dear. She's the Chosen One.......sent to collect us, the misguided.

She's come for us....in her stretch mini-van....come to collect our wayward selves and bus us to the nearest Golden Corral for a throw down of epic proportions.

Why are we even giving this person the time of day?

Looking through her posting history, she is one of the most ill informed people about proper nutrition and bariatric surgery in general I've ever seen. Facts don't matter to her.

She must be a Trump supporter.

Know idea, huh?

Well that does, indeed explain quite a bit.

No....that's not why you've been getting beat up for the stuff you've said. You've simply been getting beat up for saying it.

As far as finding your people.....I'm sure they are out there.....somewhere..........

If you look at the top of a thread it tells you what forum it is in. I always check when I am on the app, to make sure I don't make a mistake. It takes 1/2 a second.

This is one of the many reasons I prefer posting from the PC.

I have only been fat the last 4 years in my whole life and really did not feel the psychologist who evaluated me needed to know that. 4 years in my whole life is alot different than someone who has had the struggle for all of Thier life. I know more about diet and healthy eating then you think. Right now I am just following the doctor's orders. I will get back to myself very soon. And from there I know what to do. And I do follow my doctor's orders. Here is my menu. post-292157-14634988511509_thumb.jpg

No, no, no dear Babbs.

Us Trumpers would never allow such kookiness. We'd have our wall built to keep such madness out of our village.

By the way....did you not see the pic she posted ? Doesn't look like a Trump person to me. I could be wrong, though. I often am.

I kind of feel like we have to refute inaccurate information, because if we don't it looks accurate. There are so many people that lurk and read here. If we let BS stand it might harm some other new person, or worse scare someone for surgery.

I'm pretty sure at this point she is just a troll that never even had WLS. The app makes these forums far too accessible to all kinds of random people.

I am glad you shared this. It is interesting to note the very first item is at least 50 grams of Protein. I know the last time we talked about it you were nowhere near that amount. How are you doing at getting at least 50 grams of Protein and 64 oz of Water a day? Did you call and make an appointment with your NUT and therapist?

Outside mat.

I use this from my phone. I think I will just delete the app. I do not know how to use it. I am so sorry I offended people here was not my intention. I wish you all great success.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
