Week 3 Post VSG Troubles
GreenTealael replied to KingArena29's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi Protein waters instead of shakes could be easier to handle Low Iron, B vitamins (especially B 1 and 12) and electrolytes (sodium and potassium) can make you feel absolutely miserable (Bloodwork will confirm deficiencies) Let your Team know the exact symptoms for a proper diagnosis Good Luck π -
Very tough π

First date in 2 years! π©
GreenTealael replied to Melly007's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
You could try to: *Nurse a cup of water or tea *Order the soup/vegetable of the day *Ask if you can order off menu (maybe call ahead) *Bring your own mug with broth/bullion cubes (tacky but effective- say you feel like you have a cold is coming on) *Be upfront about your eating restrictions (hardest and easiest) Good Luck π -

Sleeve or bypass? help or hurt GERD
GreenTealael replied to boymom860's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
That's going to be super individualized and no one can predict what it will be like until after.(But I personally don't dump often because I'm careful- sidenote I was revised from VSG to RNY for GERD) Ask about the statistics on GERD remission/recurrence after VSG from your Surgeon or research it yourself But really It will all come down to what the surgeon (and you) determine is the best course of action Good Luck π -
Sleeve or bypass? help or hurt GERD
GreenTealael replied to boymom860's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Ask your Surgeon for their honest assessment but IMHO skip the sleeve if GERD is even a remote concern. -
I have to know... PP any good?

Interesting perspective... You should ask the community π

Pre-Op Roadblock- WWYD?
GreenTealael replied to bandsmom74's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I believe my path my was exclusively through a Sleep Center/Specialist (no doubt pulmonary docs on board). Call your Surgeon, PCP and insurance for possible referrals. Good Luck π -
Iβm not losing weight anymore!
GreenTealael replied to jbasspromotions@gmail.com's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I would suggest assuming (despite surgery type) hunger/appetite/natural drive to eat will eventually return no matter what... so you wont be surprised when it does. -
My mess of a week/ 3 surgeries in one!
GreenTealael replied to Blueorchid's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Well dont leave without finding out how to report and resolve it & don't sign anything you don't understand. Your family should assist with finding answers as you are still in an altered state. Safe recovery Good Luck π
