  1. Very inspiring. Congrats to you!
  2. You look fabulous! Congrats on such a great job!
  3. Goslin commented on circa's blog entry in I'm in control now.
    I have made homemade pizza with a califlower crust. It is delish! Everyone in the family loved it, even those who don't like veggies.
  4. Hi, I am getting to go to a seminar tomorrow about the surgery. This is the first step for the surgeons here. I can't wait!!!!! I'm very curious what they are going to say, and I pray, hope, and have all fingers/toes crossed that the process will go smoothly. Hope to be seeing y'all around a lot over the next year or so, and hopefully, having had surgery sooner than later.
  5. How tragic. I'm in nursing school now, and I see nurses that don't attend as well as they should, but definitely better than what you had. I'm so sorry. Glad to hear that you are doing better now. Please give your surgeon an ear full.
  6. I saw a doctor on the internet in S. Louisiana that can do revisions to a gastric bypass. Basically, it was for the people that had gained weight back, and he would go in endoscopically and make their stomach smaller. I don't remember the clinic's name, but I do remember it was in LA. You might want to search it, and see if they can help. So sorry this has happened.
  7. Do you know if doctors ever use suture instead of staples. I'm worried about allergies. When I had my c-sections, the staples irritated me. I would be a lot happier with suture.
  8. Is there a website to check out doctors records, or do you just have to ask the doctor? BTW, I don't see how the sleeve can be any more dangerous than my Mimi or my stepdad having their stomachs removed for ulcers. My mimi had 3/4 of hers done in the 60's, and never had complicaitons.
  9. Even though I have not had surgery(hope to have it this summer), I take my vitamins. Most of us are Vit D deficient, so it doesn't hurt if we take more of the D3. Of course, with your location, you may get enough, if you spend enough time outside. However, I will not dispute that A,D,E,K are fat soluble, and are the ones that can be overdosed on.
  10. Wonderful!. It is such inspiration to see the success that others have had. Thank you for sharing.
  11. I would like the shake list too, please. firstgoslin@gmail.com Thanks.
  12. I have definitely had many "congratulations" on the pregnancy. I just laugh it off, and say that i would rather people think that I am pregnant, than just fat. LOL
  13. Extended release pills should never be crushed. They lose the effectiveness of extended release and you are getting the full dosage at one. Maybe call your doctor and ask for something that is not extended release or enteric coated. If they are not those 2 things, then you can crush them.
