I was 9/27 and down 52 today! Great job on all your progress! -
yummy ... sugar free crystal light slurpees
my new self replied to missT's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Be careful with the slurpees because they are carbonated. I had them about 2 times a week and started feeling really bad. I was so bummed but I saw on the slurpee website that they are carbonated. -
Anyone In The St. Louis, Mo Area?
my new self replied to Jen35's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I too have Dr. Minkin. I had my surgery on 9/27 and am down 41 lbs from my 1st visit with him. I love Dr. Minkin but have also found the staff rude on the phone. My insurance covered the surgery however I did receive a few bills after from Minkin, anesthesia, and the hospital. They were not bad but I thought it was all covered. My total was almost 30k! Anyway good luck! First few weeks are hard but it gets easier. My care in the hospital was also great but make sure to ask for extra pain meds in the iv. The morphine did not cut it! -
Thanks! I hit 72grams today but I am HUNGRY!

Started Zumba today. I have been starving ever since. I had tuna with a slice of cheese for breakfast, then ground chicken with veggies for lunch, 2 protein shakes as snacks and a few crackers. It is only 5pm and I have had more to eat today than any other day.

Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call
my new self replied to newgrandmother's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hello I had my sleeve on September 27 so today was my one week. I weighed this morning and I am down 26lbs!!!! This includes a 3 day liquid diet but 27lbs in 10 days! Holy sh#t! I am so happy! Totally worth the discomfort. -
I battled the same questions. This is a great forum for lots of info. I chose to go for it and get my life back. I am 7 days out and there was definitely pain but it was manageable. Good luck!

Is Something Wrong?
my new self replied to ArtSong's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow I was sleeved on 9/27 and I am nowhere close to that. I can only drink a few sips of protein, water feels like I am swallowing a solid green been going down, and jello is almost impossible. Maybe mine is too tight? -
