nickster81 got a reaction from sky in Not Eating Enough...never Thought I'd Hear That!
Sometimes i think this group is helpful but other times i think reading it adds to my frustration bcuz everyone has different advice/instructions from their surgeon and nutritionist.

nickster81 reacted to LosingItForMe2011 in Have To Crush All My Meds.
I have to take blood pressure meds and GERD medicine but, the doctor and nurses told me I could cut them in forths to take them. I've been doing that and I've been fine.
I bet the choco Syrup works great though.

nickster81 reacted to jessamarie24 in Black Friday Shopping! Nsv
While I was out I stopped at Aeropostale. Usually I just get my god kids clothing from there since nothing has ever fit me there! Today since everything was 60% off I decided to try some things on. I ended up getting pants and 2 shirts for myself! I can fit into an XL now at Aeropostale! The small things that make can make our days!

nickster81 got a reaction from T bonz in Taking Pills.......ugggh
Can you cut them in half or quarters? I had my pharmacist give me more small pills instead of a bigger one to equal the same dosage.

nickster81 reacted to seattlelyte in What Was Your Biggest Misconception About Surgery?
I had my surgery on Nov 9th. Whoever said that this would be easy didn't know what they were talking about. I thought that getting my Fluid in would be a breeze! There are days that I feel like I urinate more that I drink. My Protein is not getting in. My left side hurts all the time. The only weight I have lost is the weight I gained from surgery. I'm very depressed right now. UGH

I thought it was be easy to drink shakes and get all of my Protein in. A lot harder than you think after surgery.

nickster81 got a reaction from Cheryl Barfoot in Almost Done Waiting...
Hi! I am new to the site. My doctor and the psychologist that did my evaluation strongly suggested i join some sort of support group. So...here i am. I've been reading a lot of posts and everyone seems to be positive and supportive of one another. About me, I am 31 years old, 5'1" and weigh 270. I have struggled with my weight my whole life and like many people, i've tried just about every diet out there. When i first contacted the surgeon's office the office manager was very helpful but realistic with me. The insurance i have DOES cover WLS but it is difficult to get approved. With her help i jumped through all the hoops and got approved. My surgery is this Monday, November 5th! I am so excited i can barely stand it. I am a 3rd grade teacher so i am on my feet and active all day. By the time i get home i am sore and exhausted. I can't wait to feel better and have energy. I am encouraged by the success i see on here...can't wait to shop for clothes and not have to go to a special store. :-)
