Hi Michele, yes, that's the reason I have 11 bottles left. I bought 12, tried one and I just can't stomach it. Everybody has different taste buds, so I'm sure there are some people that like the taste, but it's not for me.

I have 11 bottles of Isopure and they are yours if you live in the Southern New Jersey area and can come and pick them up. Inbox me if you're interested. Thanks.

I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror today...naked! The only thing different is, I didn't turn away

Joatsaint, that mirror's gonna be winking at you before you know it:)
-
Joatsaint, really? lol I'll post proof after you do

Jill, it's quite ok, not worth the hassle of me trying to return them. Call me after 11am tomorrow (856) 912-2710 - Sandra.

I'm about 5 weeks out and I just want to know if the following is normal: - Difficult getting all of my fluids in (burping, foaming and lots of mucous) - food is VERY uncomfortable going down (spasms and it feels like it's going to come back up), but certain foods are ok - Light headedness and tired most of the time (I'm assuming it's because I'm borderline dehydrated) - I generally have no desire for food because it doesn't feel good, so there's no joy in eating for me anymore I'm sad and had been having off and on feelings of regretting the surgery.

You know I'm your biggest cheerleader girl. You CAN do this! Keep your eyes on the prize. None of this is easy, but we already knew this. It's like any other obstacle in your life...you are more than a conqueror!

Thank you everyone for your input and reminders. I will definitely take heed.

I'm feeling kind of jealous. I'm 5 weeks out and most foods still feel uncomfortable going down. I'm too scared to eat anything that resembles sugar. It's kind of depressing. Don't beat yourself up too much, you'll get back on track. We can't always be perfect in our choices.

No issues.

I'm in South Jersey. My doctor was Dr. Christopher Boynton in Lumberton, NJ (Burlington County). My insurance is Advantage EPO Silver. My premium is $549 per month, but I'm sure there are other plans that cover bariatric surgery that are cheaper. Take a look at www.ehealthinsurance.com. I hope this helps!

Hey there! I posted on here on 1/23/14. I'm now 4 weeks post op from sleeve surgery and 25 pounds lost so far. Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield NJ was the insurance that I purchased and they gave a quick approval. Keep the faith and keep pushing.
-
Does that stuck food feeling (along with the slimy and foaming) ever go away?
-
How much weight did you loose in the first 4 weeks?

Pain in left lower stomach

I'm having muscle pains on my tight side. -
After 3 weeks out and 25 pounds down, I'm officially off of my blood pressure and cholesterol meds. The only med. I'm on is for reflux. I'm very happy about this.

to my hispanic sleevers!
SandeeD replied to time4change031113's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm not Hispanic, but a Puerto Rican friend made me some red Beans (seasoned with adobo, sazon, etc.) and I mixed in some cooked ground turkey, absolute heaven! My sleeve loved it! I didn't even have to mash it up, I just chewed real well. I can eat 4-5 ounces and it's full of Protein. She showed me how to make it, so it will definitely be something I'll eat a lot of. -
What happens to the girls ?
SandeeD replied to Mandyb2006's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yup, I'm just 25 pounds down and my girls have gone south! lol -
I'm having a cup of decaf now and I tell you I feel like a coffee virgin! lol I have a new appreciation for that morning cup of Joe...yum:)

He's with the same surgical group as Dr. Neff (Advocare). Here is the link for Dr. Boynton's practice http://www.advocaredoctors.com/SSBurlington/index.aspx
