I'm trying to get all this taken care of since I'm already off in FMLA. Look forward to emailing you ! I so need a buddy to commiserate with Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

This would never happen in the hospital I work for. 1) if we can't fix it we find someone who can ! 2) as a patient you have rights! Request a transfer to another hospital. They can't refuse ! ( if the hospital is full you may have to wait ) 3) that is not a nurses job. Who cares if you piss off the surgeon , he's not helping you ! 4) ask to speak with The House supervisor( they can help you ) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I love almond butter. If you take plain oats(not quick) mix with some almond milk a teaspoon of almond butter and a few pieces of fruit , mix and leave in fridge overnight. Eat the next am. Excellent meal !!!! You can even make 3 days at a time. I only use about 1/4cup or less of oats. They swell to a good size. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have a question. I'm 216 and have my psych eval on 12/15. I'm only 5' flat. How tall are y'all ? I'm thinking even a small amount of weight will look more on my small body Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Also, try a different reflux med ! Like protonix, nexium or Prilosec. A lot of people can't take Prevacid with out having surgery on top ! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
