Sleep aids
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to kaysunshine's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take 3 tablets of Benadryl every night. It's the only thing I've found that reliably works. -
Did anyone dream of eating after surgery?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to Aaron Solis's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
This is funny! Last night I dreamed about eating Costco cake. It was so vivid... -
No not at all. The less people who know, the better IMHO.

Lol I'm in!

My doctor said NO to surgery!
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to bhopeful's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm surprised that you haven't tried a weight loss medication at this stage. Surgery shoul be reserved when there are no other options left. -
Don't give up

Wow, you're a strong cookie! Good luck on the surgery -
staples after sleeve
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to Betty Evans's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A simple Google search of "surgical staples" and "X-ray" shows several examples.I'm aware of that. I was simply pointing out that in looking at quite a few post-sleeve surgery x-rays, I didn't see staples in any of them, so it's not that unusual that she can't see any in hers.The original post simply asked if one could see staples on an X-ray post-operatively...and the answer remains YES. -
staples after sleeve
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to Betty Evans's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm not sure how to assuage your fears, but what's done is done. Just because your surgeon is in Mexico doesn't mean that they are incompetent. Perhaps you can follow up with your husband's provider in the future. -

So tired of people saying you dont need surgery!

I typically don't participate in posts that are suspicious of trolling behavior, but I truly hope that you really mean you're done posting now. Thanks in advance. -
Struggling with no carbs
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to vsg_queen24's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I've been experimenting with my carbohydrate intake since my procedure, March 30th of this year. I had a lower starting BMI than most but found that the weight comes off quicker if I keep my carb count under 20 grams. -
Good toning/tightening skin lotion
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to longjohs's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I buy Estée Lauder Advance Time Zone for my mother (it's pricey), but as someone who used to urge her to get a facelift, she has had some noticeable toning with this cream. -
@ Thank you for the information that has already been mentioned on the board. Your post is not contributory in any way regarding the OP's question...but you already knew that.

How often is it okay to eat?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to theother_onefoot's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Eating a full meal three times a day is much different than eating a few bites six times a day, IMO. -

Data showing long - term post op vitamin deficiencies?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to Nomorethickchick's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm not sure if it's any consolation, but I see patients every day with some sort of vitamin or mineral deficiency (iron, b12, vitamin D) and not all of them have had weight loss surgery. Just food for thought. -

Hunger cravings after sleeve?
AngelaWilliamsMD replied to sleevingbeauty17's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My significant other has to "strongly remind" me to eat sometimes. Other times I feel deathly hungry but can only eat small portions. Crazy sleeve
