    Threetimesacharm replied to Readytolose2012's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery

Food included: all protien drinks ff milk puddings ff jello sugar free yogurt ff veggie juices soups strained hot cerals made thin and soupy Hope this helps

    Stomach Size

    Threetimesacharm replied to JSoc's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Also if you are posting this question you must be worried. "REFRIED" beans are quite gloopy or solid can go down in one big ball I wouldn't eat them right now.

    Stomach Size

    Threetimesacharm replied to JSoc's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I think you are progressing too fast. That cheese is not soft and does not chew easily. You should worry about stretching your stomach or getting a leak. I would slow down at this point. You have the rest of your life to eat solid foods. Stick with full liquids a little longer then progress to puree, no cheese balls.

    Feel Weak On Pre Op

    Threetimesacharm replied to Justine13's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I felt weak for the first 3-4 days too. Don't eat too many veggies as they are carbs and you want to shrink your liver. If you can do a pre-op diet I think that it will only help you in the long run(detoxifying your body). Good Luck!

    Ready For A Change Vs A Lighter Me

    Threetimesacharm replied to ready2bskinny's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery

    Hey readyto2skinny, my surgery is Monday and I just emailed Alma to find out all of those particulars. She gave me both the co-ordinators numbers, the drivers number(which I already had) and told me what the process is for pick up and departure. They do take you to and from the hotel and I am sure if you want to go shopping they will accomodate you. Don't worry everything will be fine! See you on the other side!!

    I would love too. If you would like to private message me with your email I would be happy to share my expereince with you. thanks for your support.

    Former Lapband Patient

    Threetimesacharm replied to jen120's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    your story is similar to mine in that I have a lapband and was very active at LBT UNTIL I decided to have a revision to the sleeve; my surgery is in three days. The sleeve is permanent and the lapband is not. I am now glad to be getting a permanent surgery for my weight loss journey. Best of luck to you and keep posting!!

    6 More Days Until Surgery

    Threetimesacharm replied to stalissa01's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

    Hey that's great I have three more days until surgery. The pre-op has been good and not looking forward to one day clear liquids(fearing dizziness, fatigue) but I can do this!! Hang in there it will be here before you know it. I booked surgery just three weeks in advance. I don't think that I could of handled a longer wait.

    Things You Will See After Surgery

    Threetimesacharm replied to jennrus's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    The correct term for number 3. IS either genitals or labia. Can't see your V unless you are a contorcionist(sp)
  21. Threetimesacharm
    I am going for a revision from the band to the sleeve on the 10th. I have had the band for 5 years. As you must see from your friends with issues, there can be some and then you may need it removed and be back to where you started: getting the sleeve. I say sleeve all the way.

    Day 3 Post Op: My Nurses Got Me In Trouble!

    Threetimesacharm replied to Sleevedreamz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    Apple juice is fat free just has natural occuring sugar unless you had ones that add sugar. This could cause you to get sick

    Weight Gain

    Threetimesacharm replied to Mezz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    I agree with the other poster. Sounds like you are eating way to much too soon. How can you eat two slices of bread with pbj you are definitely at risk of getting a leak. Slow down and take this process slowly. You will have the rest of your life to eat solid foods!
