  5. Wow, awesome post and very inspiring! You're doing so well, congrats to you!!
  6. I had a wonderful experience with Dr Kelly, if you'd like to read about my experience, it's on my profile. I know it's a difficult decision, so good luck with whoever you decide on.
  7. Congrats to you on your decision and upcoming surgery!! Good luck to you and all others posting of upcoming surgeries. Wishing you the easiest surgeries and speediest of recoveries.
  8. We all have off days sweetie, please be kind to yourself and realize you are only human. For the most part we stick to plan, but very few of us can say we haven't on occasion made a not so great food choice. It's going to be OK. Love yourself no matter what you do!
  9. Hey and welcome back!! Kudos to you for making sure you are completely ready for this life-changing surgery and new lifestyle. Even if it meant postponing it for a while. So many people rush in, not being fully ready mentally, emotionally, etc. I am not going to say there still won't be struggles, but waiting til you felt more comfortable is important for you. Good luck on your journey and congrats on your new surgery date!!
  10. When I was there with Dr Kelly, he supplied Antibiotics, pain meds, and acid reducer for us to take home, although I didn't need the pain meds. I'm sorry I don't recall what the pain med was called, but it isn't the strong kind and they give you a few days worth on it. I'm not sure if they still do this with all the changes, but I am guessing they would. You can shoot an email off to him to ask him.
  11. Yikes, sorry to hear you are having these problems. It's good that you decided to go to the ER. Sending you healing vibes!!
  12. I just got these a wk or so and have only tried the black bean ones so far, and I really like them! They are great if you are missing a crunch every now and then.
  13. Congrats, that's awesome!
  14. So true!! And how funny that I just saw this on Facebook then came here and your post is the first I see! haha
  15. I do fine with eggs any way I cook them, and could right from the solid stage. You can probably try again a little later. And your lactose intolerance may go away too, I have seen others that had this immediately post op but were fine later.

  17. Those look delicious! Thanks for sharing the recipe and the pic. I have made something similar without a crust at all, and I used a mini muffin pan. They are yummy for a treat. I will try these with the crushed walnuts or maybe pecans.
  18. Congrats on being sleeved!! I didn't have anything else done at the time of my surgery, but I've seen many that have and seem to do just fine. Sometimes maybe a little more pain. Just continue to follow your surgeons post-op diet and instructions and don't over do it physically. You should be fine. It's natural to be concerned about a leak for a little while, but try not to stress yourself out too much over it.
  19. Congrats, what an awesome NSV!! Thanks for sharing, and it won't be long til the Large will work just fine.
