    Medication

    Thank you!Visualize it. Really think about it , what you will look like, smiling, posing for photos with friends, on a balcony in a white dress in Jamaica at sunset, torches everywhere... Or sitting on a couch with a cozy now oversized Celtic knit sweater on the couch reading and drinking tea That's what I did I swear. Helps me focus. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

    Medication

    Thanks, they work with a pharmacologist (I think that's her title) on staff who adjusts meds ahead of the surgery with your other providers very cohesive,the booklets and folders are thoughtfully executed. My surgery was at a hospital rated as a center of excellence (whatever that entails) I have yet to find a single fault in their system yet, in fact I'm going to a support group tonight, so I'll get more info and report back.

    Giving up protein shakes

    RNY or VSG? VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169
  7. Perhaps it was meant as eating a minimum of one hour after waking instead of immediately after waking to promote hydration first. Def check with NUT for clarity.I ALWAYS wake and hydrate despite hunger even before wls, I can't remember the reasons but my mother instilled this in us. Something about needing Water more than food (old world stuff) I wake and drink water, tea coffee, shake, whatever else then wait a min of 30 mins and move on to breakfast. No rush I sometimes drink multiple things slowly and breakfast is at 11am. I let my body guide me. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

    Giving up protein shakes

    Got it, my inflammation from surgery has subsided I am able to consume more solids, the NUT warned me that they would want me to get all of my protein from food and I didn't think it possible until I looked at my macros for yesterday and I was at 160! I had 2 protein shakes, totally unnecessary. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

    How have your smells and tastes changed?

    I have a stronger sense of smell when things are about to spoil or are spoiled, I can only drink fancy high grade Water and I can only eat boiled eggs other than that I think everything is the same Fun thread VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

    Just Say No to Cheez-Its!!!

    Nuts, I could easily eat my daily caloric intake from nuts alone before I feel any restriction but 3 boiled eggs never can finish them in a single meal VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

    Vegan or not Vegan? That is the question.

    They didn't want me to become a lazy vegan (I was one before, just ate mostly carbs and vegan fake meats) they want you to work for your nutrition, make sure you diversify the foods eat, make sure eat leafy greens by the pound, etc. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

    Vegan or not Vegan? That is the question.

    I consulted my surgical PA and NUT about transitioning to vegan and was given the green light, the only restrictions I was given was to stay away from pasta and breads as much as possible because it is easy to fall into the pattern if eating these foods to become full buy not work on nutrition which you will have to be diligent with as a vegan wls individual VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169
  21. With a Ryvita or Wasa cracker ;Fresh basil or mint leaves, a *thin* slice of watermelon, a strawberry sliced very thinly, Alone: 10 blueberries, 10 pistachios, 1/2 tsp of jam, 1tsp of crushed pineapple , 2 slices of canned peach, 3tsp of hempseeds, 1tsp of agave syrup or honey (if allowed)
  22. That post was intended for that particular poster that was quoted who cannot make up their mind if they want or should have surgery and was told to take a peek at this thread . That particular poster has other concerns and I DID NOT want them to believe it was a free for all, it would have been irresponsible on my behalf. EVERYONE ELSE... Enjoy
