  1. Thank you! I had my sleeve done in Mexico so it's not so easy to ask questions! My plastic surgeon said it was ok but I'm not sure he knows a lot about sleeves.

  3. Hi everyone! I am a year and a half post surgery, I have met my goal weight. The problem is that my breasts have disappeared and what is left looks awful. Long story short I am having a breast augmentation next week. My question is.. The Dr gave me an "all natural" anti-inflamitory, is it safe to take? I know you aren't supposed to have NSAIDs but surely this would be ok?
  4. My surgery with Dr. Aceves was on April 25. I was 214 the day of surgery now I am 137. I am a completely different person. I am soooo happy that I had it done, I just wish it had been years ago. It makes me mad to think of all the good years I missed out on.
  5. Everyone please add me, I can't figure out how to add friends. I will follow you back! I just started myfitnesspal. My user name is laura8652013.
  6. I just started using myfitnesspal today and I could use all the help I can get! Please add me.... Username ldeh
  7. My doctor told me that I could swallow pills 3 months out. He also said that it varied from person to person and if I thought I could do it sooner to go ahead. I crushed mine and took liquids for a month until I couldn't stand it any more. I started swallowing them and haven't had any problems whatsoever.
  8. I flew to Mexico to have my surgery and had no problems on the flight back, even flew back a day early because I was so bored at the hospital. I went back to work after a week but wish I had waited two. Mostly because I was weak and tired.
  9. I was sleeved on 4/25 and am down 20 lbs. I stalled for 2 weeks but it finally looks like the scale is starting to budge a little.
  10. I have been counting both as my liquids! Darn, no wonder I've been at a stall for the past 6 days.
  11. This is a silly question, but are Protein shakes considered part of the 64 oz daily? Or are you supposed to drink 64 oz of Water plus the protein shakes?? Seems impossible!

  15. The Dr suggested crushing them but I don't know how that's gonna work out. I'm kinda nervous about swallowing them! I haven't had anything solid yet. I guess I could try applesauce, like a baby haha
  16. I was sleeved 4/25 6 lbs pre op and 10 lbs post. I haven't lost anything for the last 5 days! I thought the loss would be more than that!
  17. I am supposed to take the multi, iron, calcium citrate, b12 and zinc every third day for hair loss. There might be one more but I can't think of it right now.
  18. My Dr told me to start taking vitamins and supplements 10 days out. Today is my first day and I got the multivitamin down fine. I tried crushing the others and putting them in my protein drink..... Disgusting!!!!! Any suggestions?
