Hi Karen! Welcome to BP! Please keep us posted on how you're doing -
Second Guessing Having Surgery - What to do?
bobbyswife replied to Bino's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
This is one of those things that you need to decide with your doctor. I'm sure there's way more to it than could fit in a post, but ultimately this is up to you to decide. I would want to make sure that I understood WHY it happened and if it could happen again. That would be the one thing I would personally need to know. -
Their website states that some sediment will end up at the bottom but that it isn't protein and shouldn't be expected to all blend in. I have seen tips for the hot food - take your Gen and dissolve it in the smallest amount of cool liquid first and then add it to your hot liquid, but not over 140°

haha I'd like to revise mine to all of the above! -
Do you enjoy cooking still?
bobbyswife replied to kajunqty's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am looking forward to cooking after surgery. I have been collecting / pinning so many bariatric friendly recipes that my family will love! Especially the world according to eggface. Her recipes look so great! -
Name something strange and super unhealthy that you used to eat before weight loss
bobbyswife replied to My Bariatric Life's topic in Food and Nutrition
French fries dipped in a Wendy's frosty! -
When I've had past procedures, no pain meds just means the last dose must be worn off by the time you drive. So, depending on the meds, 4-12 hours.

I might be getting a cold and my breast reduction surgery is tomorrow morning
bobbyswife replied to IcanMakeit's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
I have read of others having colds prior to surgery and as long as there's no fever you should be good to go. -
It's all going to depend on how you feel, from what I hear everyone is different. If you can't drive you could always take a cab or get someone to drive you.

Just stick to your plan and keep your eye on the prize!

How do you guys eat out...
bobbyswife replied to TeacherMommy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Chick-fil-a chicken nuggets are the BOMB. This will probably be my go-to post op if I'm out and need protein. -
How Much Did You Lose in Month 2?
bobbyswife replied to mnmlst's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
From what I've read I think that's possible, but even if it doesn't happen, just think about how great you'll look next year! -
I have never seen anything like that. That's interesting that they would suggest coffee and tea since most Dr.'s want you to get off caffeine before surgery.

You look amazing and you look like you feel amazing, too!

Did you surgeon not give you a pre-op diet plan?
-
Would you like to be featured in the WLS Journey Brochure ?
bobbyswife replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Hopefully one day I can participate in this! -
That's awesome! I bought some pants once just because they were SO cute. They are hanging in my closet and I call them my "goal pants"

Gastric sleeve operation
bobbyswife replied to Witch of 124a's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Nobody but you can say if you're making the right decision. For me, it's definitely the right decision -
"Whatever I want with no consequences" I am guessing that's a stretch. Can you eat the VOLUME you used to eat? I would say if you are eating and becoming full after small portions you are blessed! That's awesome - be proud

Pre-op diet starts on Weds!

So tell me are still hungry after have sleeve Surgery?
bobbyswife replied to Sexy Granni's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Thanks for asking this! -
Pre diet and carbonation
bobbyswife replied to tfarr's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Carbonation can erode the lining of the esophagus and stomach, so it's best not to have them so that your tummy is as healthy as possible. Just do lots and lots of water instead! -
WTH how can you be constipated and have diarrhea at the same time?
bobbyswife replied to Bigdogdad's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That sounds miserable! Maybe you have a hemorrhoid or something in there that feels like the rock? -
I start mine this upcoming Weds. I have a few minor food funerals, but didn't go crazy. Of course I also enjoyed Thanksgiving without going overboard too. It's getting really close now!

Numbness after surgery?
bobbyswife replied to Sophie139's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Nerve issues are no fun at all, this is something I deal with a lot because of arthritis and damaged nerves. The good news is that if it is spine related, a lot of those nerves will regenerate. Have you ever tried a chiropractor adjustment? I know a lot of people are iffy about this, but sometimes it can be very helpful if you're simply out of alignment.
