Gaby from Dr. Aceves' office told me 6 weeks after sugery to start yoga

I was using an app on my iphone for the pre-op diet and as soon as I am off the post op liquids will use it to track my carbs and protein.

Actually after I re-read I realized that Stacey was referring to a Buffalo Hump. what I had was the humping of the area around the shoulder blades that older ladies sometimes have. The most important part is simply becoming aware of posture and correcting constantly until it becomes a habit. Create long neck like a string is tied to the top of your head pulling to the ceiling. Shoulders back. She gave me this neck strengthening exercise that she demonstrated. It is hard to describe but I will try. Head with eyes level; tuck chin, then the idea is to move our neck back almost like it is sliding on the hinges. It is hard to get correctly unless someone is correcting you as you do it. However there are different kinds of Neck humps. Dowagers Hump isindicativ3e of osteoporosis and fractures. Protease Paunch has to do with protease inhibitors and Buffalo Hump is often the result of morbid obesity but can be realted to Cushings Syndrome. So the bottom line is see your doctor becasue it is an indication of some otehr problem. From eHow Should buffalo hump be the result of morbid obesity, constructing a healthy diet and exercise plan with your doctor is the first line of treatment. By losing weight, fat build-up will decrease and a decrease in the size of the hump should be seen. Surgery to remove the fat can be seen as a potential option, though this method has not been approved by the U.S. food and Drug Administration, especially for those with HIV or AIDS, and is not recommended. In the end, treating buffalo hump is dependent on the treatment of the underlying condition that may be causing it. Speak with your doctor to determine the best course of treatment.

Anyone know when you can start yoga classes?

It can be related to posture. When I went to PT for my neck my therapist (who is fabulous and does old fashioned hands on PT using yoga and osteopathic techniques) told me I was getting a hump back. She gave me exercises to do and made me very conscious of sitting/standing straight with head up, shoulders back. The hump went away (I did not even realize I was getting it but now I see it in my friends and their poor posture).

I am only 7 days post op but I had O yeah before surgery. I does have a more sugar but it tastes good and has a lot of Protein. So far all of them make me gag. Isopure taste terrible to me. I mix it with diet ocean spray juice and freeze to eat as a popsicle. I can't even stand nectar which most people like. I would stay away from Muscle Milk it is supposed to have high levels of heavy metals in it

I am doing much better toady. Throat still raw and still coughing but do not feel as sick. Now I know why kids love the taste of liquid amoxicillin, LOL

Urine clear. Thanks you guys. You are all great. I was feeling y sick and overwhelmed this morning after a rough night last night. I had been doing great until last night

Thanks. I gave up on the Protein drinks for today and am sipping chamomile tea and sugar free Popsicles. I will go to the ER if it seems like I need it.

Thank you both. My doc is ordering liquid amoxicillin and a cough medicine with a decongestant. Hopefully I will better in a day or two

Hi I am 6 days post op and really sick with a throat infection. I can barely get any fluids in today. I was doing fine until yesterday. I've had a sore throat but everyone kept telling me it was from the tube. Guess not. I have been running a fever and just feel awful. I am waiting to hear from Dr. Aceves on what antibiotic my PCP should order. The phlegm and coughing hurt and are making me nauseous. I just want to crawl in a hole I also have edema and even though I have only been drinking lo cal Protein drinks and crystal light I have lost only 1 lb since the surgery!!! what is going on with that. I feel really discouraged and am wondering why the heck I did this. I burst into tears this morning just from feeling so sick. Did anyone else not lose weight in the first week?

Hi Sam, How are you doing? How is Sonja? Sorry to hear you are having trouble with Proteins. I can't stand them straight either, except for nectar, that is OK. I mix the Isopure chicken broth with real chicken broth and I made sugar free peach Jello with the peach mango isopure. I also mixed it with crystal light peach iced tea. I just bought some diet ocean spray juice to mix with the grape isopure. Maybe if you dilute it you can tolerate it. I will be glad to get to the shakes as well. I am just sick of sipping sipping sipping. I am still bloated so no movement on the scale for me

Older is not "dead". I had my sleeve on Tuesday and while looking better will be great, I want to be healthier. I want to be able to tote my expected first grandchild around be here for the 21st birthday party in 2031

I had surgery on June 15 with Dr. Aceves. The whole experience has been terrific. I am now home with no complications and feel fine other than a sore throat. I Am 59 years old, have high cholesterol, sleep apnea, degenerative disc disease, arthritis and had a BMI of 38. I feel like I had Nordstroms quality for JC Penny cost. My surgery cost $8750 inclusive as opposed to $23000 here at home. I stayed in the most immaculate hospital with extraordinarily attentive staff for 3 nights as opposed to 2 at home. My surgeon has done more than 700 VSG as opposed to 40 for the whole practice here in Delaware. That is why I went to Dr. Aceves, who is Board Certified and a proctor surgeon for other surgeons. Dr. Aceves follows you closely for 5 years and more if needed

I just had surgery on 6/15 and arrived home yesterday. I noticed immediately that I was cold all the time because I was always hot before. I just raised the temp on my AC to 74 and keep going out on the porch to get warm. I can't attribute it to weight loss because I just had the surgery 4 days ago.

I bought some IDS protein drink that comes in a 3.4 oz vial which should be TSA friendly. It has 42 g of protein. It doesn't get great reviews for taste, too sweet, but I thought I could dilute it in water and sip it. I will take some crystal light packets and some dry broth to mix with hot water. That should get me through the10 hour trip. I just wish I could have gotten a non-stop flight

Hello, My surgery is scheduled with Dr. Aceves on Jun 15 and I fly home to Philly on June 18. I could not get a non stop flight returning. I won't get back until 10:30 pm. Besides decaf tea and Water, what should I drink? Should I take some Protein powder to mix with water, and if so what kind? My first flight is 1.25 hours with only a 1 hour lay over and the second flight is 4.5. I am sort of dreading this trip home and I hope I feel K.

Hi Sam, I am scheduled for surgery on June 15th too with Dr. Aceves. I'll see you there.
