Some People Don't Notice The Change
kimmy*custis replied to janerose's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am sure they noticed...maybe they were afraid to say anything? Some people lose weight because of health issues. It is a personal thing with some people I guess. All that matters is....you are losing weight and looking great! Keep up the good work! -

Severe Nausea
kimmy*custis replied to arisingphoenix's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am sorry you are having the issue. I am with Pookey, try the patch. I was nauseous when I came out of surgery and they gave me the patch...worked great! -
I am so sorry to hear about your friend. You made a wrong decision, no biggie. Just get back up on that horse girl...you are doing so well, I wouldnt worry about a measly 1/2 slice of bread!!!

kimmy*custis replied to hadouni's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Woo hoo! I love that feeling. I was a 20...now a 12, almost a 10 in certain jeans...yaaay to us!!!! -
I was real bad and had a drink two weeks out at a crab feed. I had cranberry with a splash of vodka, did fine but....probably shouldnt have done it.

How Prepared Were You?
kimmy*custis replied to mverges's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had been researching surgery for a year before I actually had my surgery. I read everything I could, browsed sooo many forums etc. I was soooo prepared and ready when it came time. You will be too! Just jump in, the water is fine!!!!! -
Anyone Done Their Preop Testing At A Different Hospital Than The Surgery
kimmy*custis replied to Kiki Von Moonshine's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
All my testing was done at another facility , but they are affiliated with my hospital so I just walked in and got it done, no explaining what I was there for. I had a real smooth pre-op experience. -
Yes, it is normal. If you want a burger, have it without the bun with maybe just the tom/onion/lettuce? You wont be able to eat much but the craving will be satisfied. Chinese, I get something with a lot of vegies( I eat mostly the meat for the protein) and eat a 1/2 cup and am good, craving gone!

Finally Feeling Better.
kimmy*custis replied to CraftyV's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yoga pants were my best friend for the first few weeks. Bra, not so much, only wore it when I left the house. Glad to hear you are doing well, you look fantastic! -

Heat Exhaustion?
kimmy*custis replied to Magsnlucy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree... go to the doc and get checked out. Heat exhaustion is nothing to mess with. Better to be safe than sorry. -
Yaaaay! Feels soooo good doesnt it? Congrats to you!

Hi Nettle, congrats on your upcoming surgery. I tried a boatload of protein drinks and the only ones I like are the Muscle Milk lights ( Costo has them) I take Costco brand multi's and Calcium. I had the Kirkland chewables for a while, they are good too! I think your best bet is to go to a GNC or something similar and buy singles of a few different brand of protein drinks and see which ones you like, there are soooo many and so many like different ones. The chocolate Muscle Milk ones are the bomb!
