Go directly to the bariatric surgeons practice you will be using and chevk if they use a dedicated pcp list for process approval. A lot of practices will have something like this set up to help the process along. Good Luck 💜

Sewing clothes for rapid weight loss?
GreenTealael replied to Libby63's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
*Burst In* Am I late !?!?!? No.. Whew 😂 I often altered my clothes as I lost weight insyead of buying new things. No pattern, just a tape measure to compare current size with clothing size then reduce the clothing by the difference (e.g. waist of clothing is 42 minus new my current waist 39 equals a 2-3 inch reduction.) Make sure to measure each part of the clothing that you are altering agains your new size and reduce each area by the proper amount. YouTube will have great tutorials that make it simple and easy to follow along. Good Luck 💜 -
Late 2-3 Month Post-op
GreenTealael replied to Darktowerdream's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
1. You NEED to go to that follow up. You'll likely need another Dilatation (or two) before feeling relief. The stretch the stricture out with the understanding that it will likely close back down. So they do it a few times. 2. Chronic ailments are lousy and make people feel lousy. Sorry. But in order to heal and get relief you have to ask and answer questions. Communication will be key to finding the right medical approach. I agree that you should write down questions and read them instead of being frustrated in the moment. Good Luck 💜 -
Don't bank on the *more loss = more the targeted areas will improve* unicorn 😞

Protein Balls - scooby snacks
GreenTealael replied to levinme's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I used to make these types of treats as well in the post VSG because they were made from whole foods. 😍 I would make a batch then freeze the majority to either gift or use at a later date. -

No nausea and Fish was fine, not super oily but I havent has an issue with oil. But I did only eat one... High refined sugar/carbs on the other hand (maybe higher than 10g) may do me in. But I didnt like the onion rings so I didn't eat those and they were by far more oily. Hope that helps -
Oh I understand & I will also abandon a liar (even if by omission) in a split second. Cest la vie... at least you broke into dating and are more comfortable now!
