Allergy meds Post Op?
GreenTealael replied to Em_Evolves's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congratulations so far! Check with your instructions/Surgeon first of course, but *almost* all over-the-counter allergy medicines comes in a children's liquid form. The directions also indicate how to use by age or weight. Good Luck ♥️ -
Revision completed
GreenTealael replied to Tracyringo's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Any change in bowel movements? Old back injuries? If it was bad enough to go to 3 Hospitals, please tell your Surgeon just in case Get Well Soon ♥️ -

You are going to do amazing ♥️ -
Stalled weight
GreenTealael replied to MISTY_CEE035's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Try to include some form of meditation as well. Stress can cause physiological changes that can cause weight gain just like a caloric surplus. -
4 weeks out and have not lost weight
GreenTealael replied to Abbie_tom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Did you receive IV fluids in the hospital? That's usually the culprit for post hospital visit weight changes & stalls Otherwise the common stall that everyone mentioned may have started Good Luck ♥️ -

Dinner last night : Greek salad and novelty sized mushroom ricotta bake 🤣 (I barely ate any because I began fasting again (in anticipation of Yom Kippur) and I'm not as hungry and can handle less) -
change surgery date
GreenTealael replied to Felicia tomberlin's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My advice is to figure out which parts scare you and if they can be worked on but only do what you are comfortable with ♥️ -
Authorized but no response from doc
GreenTealael replied to biskit76's topic in Insurance & Financing
Please try to be a *little* patient with Docs and staff right now, so much backlog is slowing processes down. Especially since you were originally denied, the really might have just put your file to the side and moved on to more straight forward cases. But do stay in constant communication with them now so they know you're serious. BTW, You must have super patience already since you waited 7 weeks to contact them. I would have contacted them the same day my decision was overturned, picked my surgery date and started my pre-op diet 😆 -

It happens but hopefully it's temporary ♥️ -
Looking for some cheerleaders!

Congratulations 🎉 and -
I don't think you'll need a shower seat but that's up to you but, definitely a (wedge or other style) pillow for comfort I would recommend : Measuring tape to keep track of losses that the scale may not reflect Water bottle with liquid measurements to track intake Silk/Satin pillow case to minimize possible hair issues Pill organizer Good Luck ♥️

GERD after sleeve Dr said bypass is only option to fix??
GreenTealael replied to Kikikiki's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Good points and considerations that helped me to move forward with conversion to RNY rather than play Russian Roulette with a preventable cancer -

Forgot to post: Vegan *almost* sugar free apple pie (for the BF) Pie crust is a basic oil crust and granulated stevia was used to cook the apples. Two tablespoons of maple syrup was added for flavor enhancement so that's why it's almost sugar free -

GreenTealael replied to Kikikiki's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes and conversion to RNY seems to be the top choice of Surgeons. Bypass is *almost* imperceptibly different from VSG at least in my experience -
If I ever wear new clothes, I'll share 🤣 until then... BTW... IT'S FALL
