Thank you! Truth be told, I'm super afraid that once my swelling/edema goes away so will my hips and I'll have a narrow/straight figure again π’

Surgeon Recommendations
GreenTealael replied to Mrsdean1014's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
π Take a look at Realself for inspiration π -
Some exercises will work to strengthen muscles and fill in the loose area but if its truly just a lot of skin surgery is the best bet.

For baking its a little trickier. I use coconut and almond flours but those recipes have to be followed PERFECTLY or its ruined. I find there is no wiggle room with those subs π’ -

Intermittent Fasting Daily Menu/Results/Accountability
GreenTealael replied to FluffyChix's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Whew! First I need to return to the fold π but if I want to get in quick I will do a 24 dry fast or 36 hr wet fast, then continue with 20 /18 hr fasts. This is what works for me and (TMI time) I can tell by bathroom responses whether or not I'm there. -

WONDERFUL! Looks Wonderful! And yes I used to blend oats to make a flour when making baked goods after VSG. I may start again. Awwwwww, I promise I will eventually just get a head of lettuce and make the wraps -I'm just using things I have on hand for now -

Revision weight loss
GreenTealael replied to GotItDoneInHarlem's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
* Bursts In: Am I late? No, Good * I converted from VSG to RNY at my goal weight. Initially i lost a about 10lbs easily but worked (ate π) to get back to my normal goal. It is possible to maintain if you are diligent. If i eat weight loss mode - I lose, if I indulge just a little every now and again- I maintain, if i go overboard - I gain. As always talk to your Surgeon and come up with a realistic plan π Oh BTW , GERD is gone π -
BTW, got the new girls π

Its quite possible you can maintain π Sending prayers, affirmations, good vibes your way β€ -
I, too, am feeling the post plastics woes... @ms.sss My weight is bouncing around and it directly corresponds to by swell/bloat levels. I seem annoyed/sad all the time to my boyfriend (he even made ME tea- something he is afraid to do π), I've been working on projects at a less than minimal pace, im missing calls and texts left and right. I can tell Dopamine my levels are down because I want foods I don't regularly eat and once I get them im not happy with them... I totally forget how surgery, any surgery can screw you up short term. I am trying to be kind to myself during this process. π
