Those who have fallen off the wagon, and have successfully gotten back on..
Gina1010 replied to erikalexandra19's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Fallen off the wagon is an understatement... In fact it's rolled over me a few times lol but I get back on again and again. Old habits are hard to break. I'm going to try the low carb thing and start to count my carbs. After losing over 150 pounds pathetic weight loss began to slow down... I believe low carbs is the key. Thanks for the suggestion. -

I was hospitalized for dehydration too and yes it does get better... I was sleeved on 10/10/12 and was told eggs are very difficult for most sleevers. I tried eggs in my early months and got sick as well so I have not eaten them since. Hope you feel better soon hang in there. -
I didn't meet my goal, this time, but I'm back out of the 270's weighed in at 268. Starting weight was 264 goal 259. I may have lost this battle but still winning the war lol. Happy Memorial Day!

Restriction Question for the Long-Timers
Gina1010 replied to LipstickLady's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I am 18 months out and experienced vomitting, sliming and dumping. I hope I am at capacity cause I can eat more than I could 6 months ago. Its nowhere near what I used to eat thankfully but I hope this is it. I get hungry every few hours and have to pick healthy snacks. If that scale moves on the wrong direction, and it does sometimes, its not a good day lol. -
Taking the pounds off slowly now but surely. This is where I have come from. Still so much more to go

Firming lotions for the loose skin?
Gina1010 replied to cdestrada's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
If there is a firming lotion out there I would love it! So far it's surgery for me even with the loads of cocoa butter and lotion I put on. -

Very nice! -
OMG I thought I was the only one that cried over food... It got better for me and it will for you too. It's a small sacrifice with a great reward. You will be just fine. Hang in there you will be off liquids before you know it.

Ladies: stress incontinence
Gina1010 replied to greensleeve's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Mine was better after losing weight.... Soooo much better. Good luck on your journey! -
A good doctor will send you for tests prior to surgery to see if you are at risk. A cardiologist is usually recommended and they will advise if there is an issue... Good luck in your journey!
