  1. @Ylime I love that it is a full smart watch (I upgraded from Alta HR), I can read text/IM/email and even send quick replies from the watch, I L O V E that it is water resistant and I don't have to remove it to shower/swim anymore. I get meeting reminders and can see who is calling me plus I can use it to pay for things in some places. That's on top of all the standard fitbit activity/steps/stairs/sleep tracking! Oh and they just added monthly cycle tracking too
  2. So I am 3 weeks post sleeve yesterday and today for lunch I brought some roast beef to roll up with mustard. Without thinking, I used my usual grainy/seedy dijon mustard, you know the kind that is basically ALL seeds? I ate about 1/2 a tsp before I remembered I wasn't supposed to be eating seeds! What are the chances this will get stuck/cause a problem?
  3. I do! I love it!
  4. https://www.fitbit.com/user/24RS27 is me! I am going to add everyone else in the thread as well aerynea@gmail.com if you can't add by link!
  5. I am so confused, have you had the surgery or not yet? Is your story somewhere I can read?
  6. This is not a great idea when someone is already suffering from hives.
  7. If you’re starting to feel queasy that is when you should take the zofran. You risk serious dehydration otherwise.
  8. Oh man that does sound awful, I don't have anything that sounds like that all, I hope you feel better soon!
  9. What stitch is that? I don't have any that are particularly painful
  10. I only get it when taking my evening meds on an empty stomach. Ask your doc for some Zofran, dissolves on the tongue and works in just a few minutes. Also - Lexapro withdrawal can be VERY dangerous, are you off of it cold turkey or did you taper down properly? I ended up in the ER years ago when a bad doc had me stop cold turkey.
  11. My surgery was on a monday, I was back at work the next Monday and was totally fine.
  12. I definitely didn't have pain like yours, but I found ice packs across my incisions and abdomen to help A LOT in the first week
  13. Me too, have been using Baritastic because it has good graphs but it's food logging leaves a lot to be desired
  14. I had two On-Q pumps and they were fantastic! No pain whatsoever!
  15. June 18th for me! My recovery has been very easy so far, my surgeon installed 2 On-Q pain pumps that were just removed today. I am STRUGGLING with getting my fluids and protein in, hoping it gets easier as the swelling goes down. I do have some abdominal distension still from the gas used in the surgery, but nothing terribly severe.
  16. I had surgery with Thomas Brown this week and he’s been amazing! Is there somewhere I can read about your husbands experience, missy?
  17. Images added to a gallery album owned by aery in Before and After Gastric Sleeve Photos
    Various photos of me before surgery
