  1. Beautiful. Keep up the good work!!!
  2. Before the sleeve, I had issues when sneezing. 11 mons post op & I no longer have that problem.
  3. I was told by my doctors that this is all normal. Mine was irregular for first 5 mons post op. Returned to normal cycle at 6 mons. I'm 11 mons post op & missed my period last month. And no, I'm not pregnant either. All normal stuff.
  4. I'm 11 mons post op yesterday. It took me a while, but now all I see & really love is the new me. Someone told me yesterday that they didn't remember be being overweight. I showed them a before picture, I think I was more shocked then they were when I saw my picture. I totally don't see the old me.
  5. That's right, you gotta own your new body!!!! Good job.
  6. Same here. I had 2 & hated that I was being watched b strangers. I often wondered if how they was able to get enough I info because I was up every hour wishing the night was over. Sooooooo glad I don't ever have to do another.
  7. Nuts are good. It's what helps me with my snacking urges & reaching my daily protein goal. I started adding them to my diet at 5 mons.
  8. I had sleep apnea & had to do a sleep study prior to surgery. My last sleep study was over 10 years ago. Because I had sleep apnea, a current study was mandatory. Your jitters are normal. The EGD is a piece of cake. Believe me, when it's all said and done, you will love your sleeve. Good luck & keep us posted.
  9. Wow, sorry. Hang in there & feel better. Good luck.
  10. Right, my doctor wrote abdominal surgery on my paperwork.
  11. Legally, you are not required to give specifics. Only thing they need to know, if anything, is that you are getting surgery. They shouldn't ask for details. There's a federal law that protects your private health information.
  12. How much have you lost since you were sleeved?
  13. Nice. My surgery was 11/7/12. At gym @ 5 am & I drink 1 bottle of Water Driving home from gym @ 6, I drink a small Protein shake On way to work @ 7:15 I eat 2 small turkey sausages, cheese on half of bagel then (sometimes without the bagel thin), sometimes just sausage & egg white. 8:15 16 oz decaf coffee & drink water 9:30 I eat my Greek yogurt 10:00 I'm drinking water throughout until 15 mons before lunch 1ish is lunch time, cup of salad with either 3 oz salmon, tuna or chicken I start water again or decaf mint tea an hour after I'm done lunch 3 or 4ish I'm snacking on some sort of nuts or a Protein Bar 6 ish is dinner time and I'm usually not hungry & have already met my protein goal. So I'll eat a really, very small portion of something. Nothing special, just whatever I cook for my husband.
  14. Trial & error. Now you know what not to do. Lesson learned, right? Move forward. & stay focused & you'll be fine. Get in some protein & fluids. Good luck & hang in there.
  15. Awesome. Too funny. Good luck to you both!!!
  16. Best of luck TO you!!!!
