When did you guys go back to work?
bodyslmmn replied to cnewbodyreno's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved on Tuesday 12/6. I went back to work the following Tuesday, so I was out for one week. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App -
Last Supper
bodyslmmn replied to Crafty Li'l Devil's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wouldn't have a super last supper if I were you. If you stretch your stomach out and then the next day go on a liquid diet... you're just asking for trouble. Your stomach will want to fill itself up and you won't be able to on a liquid diet. You'll be miserable! Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App -
Anybody have problems at work when asking off for surgery?
bodyslmmn replied to meljoy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It's time to take care of you. Don't concern yourself with the office. AND don't tell anyone what you're doing, it's your business. Legally they can't ask you personal questions about your medical condition. Let them hire a temp or whatever... I know you feel obligated, but 2 months notice is more than enough. And that part-time chick needs to be replaced. She is NOT a team player whatsoever. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App -
Did you ever get scared and excited

Anxiety/Health Anxiety folks Help plz
bodyslmmn replied to VivVsg's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That's my nightmare today. I'm weining off of Effexor XR onto Wellbutrin. Extended release meds don't work with sleevers. I'm suffering horribly trying to come off of it. I'm vomiting, the runs and completely nauseous. Can't keep anything down for the past 24 hrs. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App -
Exactly what my surgeon told me. Since I started with a low BMI, 34 and 212lbs, my rate of weight loss would be slower than most. I was sleeved on 12/6 and I'm now at 193. Meanwhile, before being sleeved losing almost 20 lbs in less than a month would be freaking AMAZING!!! Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

How do you weigh your food? Do you have a kitchen scale? Or do you simply eat until full? How many ounces are suggested? Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Not losing weight!
bodyslmmn replied to aharrison48's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My scale is moving either. I was sleeved on 12/6. So far I've only lost 10lbs. Although 10 pounds in 2 weeks prior to being sleeved would've been unbelievable. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App -
Your BP is way too high. You need to be checked out ASAP...Not to mention, you're probably dehydrated. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

I'm in the same boat... I was sleeved on 12/6 and have only lost 17lbs. What's funny is ..before my surgery, had I lost 17lbs in 2 weeks I'd be ecstatic! Yes, we are being very hard on ourselves. But knowing this doesn't make us stop. HW: 214 CW: 195 Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

On the road lunch ideas
bodyslmmn replied to Ssze1109's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Store bought hummus tastes VERY salty. I tried it months before my surgery. I had to throw it out because I couldn't handle the sodium content. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App -

Mass underneath incision site
bodyslmmn replied to mpt809's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have only one incision in my belly button that has a small mass. My surgeon checked it and said it was fine. He had me cough etc to make sure it wasn't a hernia. Everything looked good to him. Have your surgeon check it... but it's probably normal. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App -
