  1. unsupported spouse

    gloriann replied to mrs red koolaide08's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    When I first mentioned the surgery to my husband, he was like no way...are you crazy??? The lapband had failed me and I felt I didn't have any other choice. Once he realized that I had researched the procedure, he stepped back to see how everything else went. The EKG, bloodwork, NUT appt, psych eval, etc, etc. One the date was scheduled, he was like...I can't believe it! Well, here we are almost 9 mos later and he couldn't be happier for me. He compliments me and shows me how proud he is of me. He even told me to go ahead and buy a whole new wardrobe once I am at goal! Yeah baby!!! Hang in there, hopefully he will realize you are doing this for YOU! Good luck!

    Glad it finally got approved. Sometimes it's an idiot processing claims.

  17. Not sleeping well

    gloriann replied to Huntingnurse's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Sorry to hear your're not sleeping well. The only time I had vivid dreams was when the dr had me trazadone. Oh boy...some dreams scared the crap out of me. Anyway, I hope you get some good zzzzz's soon. Good luck!

  18. HELP: weight stalls but very active

    gloriann replied to sarahp_newme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I have hit my 5th stall since my surgery in May 2012. I usually do a 3-day liquid diet. I also drink lemon water daily-regardless if i'm at a stall or not. It gets your metabolism going for the day. Try it! It might work for you as well. Good luck!

    gloriann replied to elisamarieb's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    Hang in there and do get discouraged. I know it's easier said than done. Maybe you can do a 1-3 day liquid diet to get things moving. Good luck!
