  1. No way!!!!ooops!!!
  2. Two more days for me. I started a pre-pre op diet with replacing 2 meals with shakes. i hope I can do this.
  3. I know that sex is fleeting now, because of being tired, work, kids, home...weight, lack of um flexibility . I am hoping it will be more than a weekly thing, once I am sleeved.
  4. I think a lot of folks use mobile apps, it's harder to look at and change profiles
  5. Super! An inspiration
  6. Never gave advice. it was just a thought. Gawd
  7. Like NIKE says "just do it"
  8. Dilute it 1:1 or 1:2 add mio or crystal light it's not that bad
  9. I am only pre-op, but what I have researched, could it be a stricture?
  10. I still have to figure out how to change the values.
  11. Friend me everybody NDN_RN.
  12. In CT we have the Da'Vinci robot, one incision surgery. Less pain quicker recovery. The down sides are the same for a traditional lap sleeve. Only thing is the procedure is pretty new, how much experience do these sugeons have with it and what is their complication rate.
  13. Good for you! Wow you are beautiful!
  14. We have cold winters in new england. I was hoping to stay immune to the cold. My poor family walls around in parkas indoors to save on heating amd iI happily warm
  15. Sometimes right after anesthesia you get really cold, which is why they have all the warming blankets. Your metabolism may be slowing to a halt temporarily, until you get your calories in. That might be why you are cold
  16. The dietician may be billing under the doctor' date=' that's how they sneak it by.i had to pay for three dietician visits 370 bucks ouch
  17. I don't have a problem with isopure as long as it is diluted 1:2 water, Crystal light or whatever. And it's cold. 1/2 a bottle a day for a week is all I am required to do for clear liquid week. When the stages are a week or two long, i don't want to invest too much thought and money, like NIKE says, just do it!
  18. My surgeon is using the davinci robot' date=' one incision for some of his surgeries. I don't know if I want it if he has had many more surgeries doing it traditionally
  19. Doing a pre-pre op diet of shake in the am' date=' tuna at lunch, snack shake mid afternoon and meat with a green veggie for dinner. Hungry, but working it. Full Liquid phase on wed for 12 days, then 2 days of clears. I think I'm gonna make it!
  20. BariatricChoice.com is the site I use
  21. Itch and pain receptors are the same. Itch is a less intense version of pain. Healing is underway...unless it it accompanied by redness swelling and drainage...that's infection
