Any August 2017 Sleevers?
lindabalseca replied to Jessalene's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
since im prone to blood clots and a history of PE i have to do the shots for a month -
No weight loss first week??
lindabalseca replied to dayoneyearone's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've been feeling down for the same reason...I'm 4 days post op and only 2# lost....I'm thinking maybe this might not work for me...I have been following everything exactly...my dr did have to remove a lot of scarred tissue because I had the lapband removed in 2010. I'm hoping it's just swelling delaying the loss...[emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] -
I'm a little bit less than you are and I am taking lovenox shots because I had blood clots before and at that time I was 400 pounds...the shots work just fine they just need the right dosage

lindabalseca replied to lindabalseca's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I actually tolerated a muscle milk 40g protein shake...but that pain still comes...it feels like a contraction I have to breathe it out to go away...it took an hour to drink the shake -
I just had my surgery yesterday on 8/9. No nausea my dr put a patch behind my ear for that.... no pain really...some pressure occasionally for gas....stomach feels like I did 1000 sit ups lol. They have been giving me liquid Tylenol and toporal for pain round the clock...so then I shouldn't have constipation from meds...walked around the floor 4 times yesterday...

Any August 2017 Sleevers?
lindabalseca replied to Jessalene's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't think Walmart has it...the local grocery store does though...I'm 2 days post op feeling good driving already going back to work Monday...it's just hard getting the fluids in....I'm sipping along but then I get this pain...it's a cross between a hunger/gas pain that bridges my upper stomach...they want 60oz of fluids and I'm only on about 12oz....popsicles help a lot -

Don't weigh yourself after working out...your muscles have expanded with blood flowing through... you would have to check the next day to get an accurate reading -
