    SabrinaGoddess got a reaction from Jan N in Surgery this month, wife threatening divorce   
    Married people share a life but they still have separate journey's. Your journey is important and it's even more important that you are healthy for that baby. You gonna be one busy papa! Try to sit and talk with her and make he understand this is a healthy choice. She may just be scared. Congrats on the baby! You got this! I even suggest therapy if you can because you need to get to the root of the issue and address it so your relationship can thrive.

    It alerts medics not to push liquids or NSAID if you are in an emergency situation.

    SabrinaGoddess got a reaction from JessLess in Has anyone kept their surgery a secret?   
    Yep! After my lapband failed in 2012 people told me how they really felt! I found out many who I thought were supportive were not at all. So when I decided to get sleeved (Dec 9, 2019) I only let a hand full of family know!

    SabrinaGoddess reacted to Bastian in Bad breath after surgery?   
    RickM that isn't actually how ketogenic diets work per se. One reduces carbohydrates, to use existing body fat as fuel rather than carbohydrates. The only macronutrient the body does not NEED to function healthily is the carbohydrate. If One reduces fat or Protein too low in their diet, they WILL become deficient, as we can see by how many of us on here are carb-loaded, fat and dying slowly from heart disease and diabetes, just to name 2 of the most common diseases we all have, let alone metabolic disease etc.
    Yes, ketosis can give you bad breath, but it goes after a while even if you remain on a ketogenic diet.
    Bad breath post-WLS is often from changes in the gut flora, acid and food being eaten and processed differently.
    Yes, I do have nutritional qualifications, yes I do have a degree and YES I am still here on the WLS journey too, because nothing in this life is black and white

    Nothing stupid about it! food is a safety zone and now you are living a different way of life. Also you are just a few days post-op so you are extremely limited on what you can have. I had to get some sugar- free Jello yesterday and it was the first time I walked thru the grocery since surgery. My mind immediately started checking off things that I can’t have. I thought that was very intresting! But this is a process which also deals with our thinking! You have this. Start replacing the negative thoughts immediately with a positive one. It’s gonna take time.

    You are NOT a failure, you are on a journey. When we fall we learn lessons. You got this, you know what to do. Try to get to a support group with real people, not just online.

    SabrinaGoddess reacted to Frustr8 in No F#$ckin BMI Way   
    And my Mama, may she rest in PEACE, always stated- always believed I was Big- Boned, fated to be on the Larger side of Things. Well having lost over 1/2 of ME, 178ish from High Point of 365+ I AM MERELY Medium - lady- sized boned after all. Told my ortho, the esteemed Kenneth H Doolittle II MD, I was an OBESE Athletic build, told me that was an impossibility! Last office visit, He ate his words, shook my hand and conceded I WAS CORRECT under all that Flabby Fluff lurked an 15/16 Junior size body- almost justifies going from a DD bra cup to a B, semi- perky , at 74 things "flop" instead of "bounce merrily" but it's GOID- ALL GOOD after all!

    It's not going to hurt! If they were soft and it was just a taste it's not going to do anything. You're fine. Just remember to be careful with yourself - you've been through a big surgery and are probably feeling really fragile emotionally and physically right now. Cut yourself some slack. All of us have a lifetime of habits to change - it's going to take a bit of time.

    Girl those BMI's are trash. I get so tired of that. Every body is different. If I tried to be 140 I'd look like a skeleton!
