Struggling with support system at home.
GreenTealael replied to TravMac's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Question: How much influence do the saboteurs actually have over your weightloss efforts (purchase your groceries, pick up your meds, cook your meals, drive you appointments, etc.)? Can you be much more assertive and really tell them in a way they will understand? Good Luck 💙 -

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAYS

Wow, so amazing! -
What do you consider a (melodramatic) Emergency these days? Late to work? 2lb weight gain? Bad date? Spilled coffee? Sour yogurt? Budget due? Teens? How do you combat it? How do you process your emotions now instead of letting them eat away at you? Or you eating them into submission? What tools & (let's be honest) foods are on your emergency bag to keep you from going into shock?

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 For everyone dealing with trauma related to society's treatment of obese people drop your *story here Horrible friends want you to continue being the DUFF? Significant other is suddenly have more interest in you ? Strangers treat you with respect? Career opportunities suddenly opening up? No longer invisible or visible for the wrong reasons ? You can eat without the stares? Doctors take your concerns more seriously? Etc... *for privacy names should be altered or not included... 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉

Halo top, other low calorie high protein ice creams
GreenTealael replied to Jessviera's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I like Halo top (as a low cal - high protein ice cream replacement) but waited until I was pretty far out from surgery to try and only occasionally. Use those early days wisely. Consider sugar free popsicles instead. These are usually on our plans. You can also blend protein shakes and frozen protein shake cubes to get to a mlikshake / slushies consistency if you need something of that texture Good luck -

how often did you feel buyers remorse having the surgery
GreenTealael replied to johnedwin's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
After 2 weeks most of my pain was gone (I was in A LOT of pain) No remorse because I couldn't stay the way I was, forward was the only path for me. Good luck & Get Well Soon 💙 -
I like Crazy Richard's PB no added sugar, just peanuts (incase sugar affects you poorly) https://www.crazyrichards.com/product/creamy-peanut-butter/ My body fat is around 27 (measured from a couple of months ago) @ms.sss your carbs are still (keto level?) low, you may continue to lose with those macros @sillykitty during my drop from the 170s to the 150s my looks fell apart too 😥 when i got down to 150 i looked absolutely gaunt. I look decent at 155, I'm still mad i can't spot target weightloss @Healthy_life2 thanks for the meal plans... I am totally interested in switching things up a little

Massive headache for 2 days, no sleep post op
GreenTealael replied to DanieHall's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Perhaps trying a warm compress on forehead, massage the sinuses and temples, stretching (the areas you safely can), stay well hydrated (electrolytes) & if things continue to devolve notify your Team immediately Good Luck and Congrats 💙 -
Surgery for illness instead of weight loss - Gastroparesis
GreenTealael replied to Chellesy's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
That depends entirely on your sugeon and insurance. At a BMI of almost 40 you are considered obese not overweight. Whether you have it for one reason or another, weight and BMI will be used in your file and hard to ignore by a Bariatric surgeon. But this may be to your advantage when trying to get approval from insurance. You'll want as many co morbidites (contributing factors) as possible so you can't be denied. Self pay is a different set of rules and time lines. Hopefully both health concerns can be resolved. Good luck 💙
