Bypass patients Beware
douchewafflebear replied to Falicia004's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
i’ve always been able to check the strings - if your nervous you can always go see your OB - My Dr was from the military and shared that of the hundreds he put in - only ONE was expelled. I feel pretty good about those #’s -
Your boss can be sued - if your company is eligible file Fmla paperwork - that rationale is ridiculous

Bypass patients Beware

We can all talk about the anomalies - I have a friend who got pregnant (full term) at 45 with an ablation - anyone with a merina can monthly check the strings -

Check out Fmla at the bank - if your at a large chain they can't give you black out dates - they won't be happy - but they can't

Sugar-Free Creamsicle Cake
douchewafflebear replied to lmcgloon's topic in Vegetarian, vegan, raw foods
On that recipe I can have the eggs... But that's about it Weight watchers has a cake you make with a prepared mix and a can of soda - but that too will never be on my list -

SLEEP APNEA VENT
douchewafflebear replied to douchewafflebear's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am disappointed because until now I hadn't felt ashamed - he made it clear how important he was in my journey and made sure he told me how disappointed he was that my pcp didn't send me in years ago. He is not important I am He holds the keys to my very near future but not my life I have preached throughout this journey that everything happens for a reason - I just need to listen to my own advice -
SLEEP APNEA VENT
douchewafflebear replied to douchewafflebear's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No cpap for my c section No cpap for my tonsils If anyone gets wheeled into an ER they don't have a cpap This bozo asshats needed to lecture me how important his job is and went on to educate me on how among the list of pre surgery stuff his was the most important Having done research all day - I now know it's about being awake when they pull the intubation tube (I bet as a precaution they do anyway because of my bmi) He said between the lines that he needs to test me because he is responsible if he approves me and I end up having difficulty - That being said - this has been the first Dr in the long list that was a jerk - I suppose the glass half full girl should be greatful Thanks for hearing my vent Amazing people here Dr's who don't get bariatric patients suck -
I love them - I’l buy them from you!

Greek yogurt - they sell a fage 0% I get at costco - cheaper than anywhere else and it’s my go to yogurt
-
I’m pre-op and I’m so a virgin at all of this...but thought I’d try my 1/4 of fage 0 with some nectar Protein powder - BOYAH!!!! 6g protein from the 2oz of 0% fage 23g protein from Nectar - I used strawberry mousse I’m pre-op so humor me - but I think I can do this and be happy with that!!! I’ll remember to go back to this when I’m on the bench with all of you and perhaps kick myself.

Anyone able to share their experience/expertise on the post op merena period? I get some nuisance bleeding monthly - I don’t even pay attention to when - it’s about enough to wear pads for 2 days - just curious.

whey is good protein - and easily digestible.

i had a short interview and a 2 hours computer assisted interview - true and false - only pain is being trapped in front of a computer for 2 hours with mundane questions...

Off meds and WIDE AWAKE
douchewafflebear replied to agirlofaith's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
and people - Dr’s don’t willy nilly prescribe pain meds - and - the check and balance is the pharmacy - they don’t over fill those scripts either. Listen to NurseTAB -
Off meds and WIDE AWAKE
douchewafflebear replied to agirlofaith's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
there’s a REASON they give you pain meds and not just ONE pill - it’s not an everlasting gobstopper...although if I could come up with that it would be codine laced in my world. -
Crystal light has JUST come out with drops - got them last week at Walmart and they are YUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMY They have a few of the mock cocktails - but my favorite right now is the strawberry lemonade drops on the same note - walmart has a watermellon something sugarfree drink mix (and a grape -mmmmmmmmmmm-) and I’m totally addicted to them
-
turkey/pork/chicken/eggs/cottage cheese/rocotta cheese...i think that’s my list.
