He does not make you jump thru a bunch of hoops! Good Luck and you will get this The way i looked at it Spend the cash now and you will get it back over two years in food and eating out savings!

    Plan to Suceed

    Great Plan - Only thing i can say as a Drinker and Smoker and one who slammed the WLS journey is that is alot to bite off at one time, But If you can do it Go for it! The surgery is a tool that will enable you to run the journey. Your calorie plan is a great one, Almost identical to my plan that my Nutritionist set up for me. But be careful Do not focus so much on Calories make sure you focus on healthy foods to get those calories in. Do some research here on Vitamins and Supplements this is going to be a challenge that most of us struggled with at the beginning. Have fun and welcome to the Losers club! Weight that is

    3 week post-op problems 😩

    My brother had this same issue - it went away in about a week, I agree with the pedialyte but he made ice chips out of it and use them instead of swallowing gulps it worked for him - He just sipped ice chips all day made of Electrolytes and also try drinking some broth diluted

    Question for the husbands

    Ok I am jumping in on this From a differnt angle NO WLS will not fix a abuser of food and alcohol! Most likely will make it worse My Male Ass Story! There is no doubt i went thru some rough times with this, To put it bluntly was a complete Prick! Moody grumpy and all out miserable! Until i got my head on straight. This is a huge issue with both males and females, the extreme changes our bodies go thru make is different. So this tool will never fix those issues I am not married but very close physically and mentally to my x wife. She saw the changes and it got ugly again. I have a few other friends with privileges and they noticed it also. Even my Male friends said WTF! I am 52 and ended up in a Lake side bar brawl with a bunch of 21 year old. Temper was short and they did cross the line, But I would have never even let it bother me pre WLS. Lucky for me i crashed and got help getting my stuff together. I am fine now but it took some time, back to the old person i was. I did not get divorced from WLS i have been divorced a long time. I suggest you get his closest friend or brother to talk to him Man to Man. In other words Man up or you will loose a lot around you. Then get him a Head Doc that specializes in Divorce saving and behavior Changes. Anything can be fixed! Just may not be easy. But i fully understand Hard to Break a ALpha Male Complex

    And it begins (or ends?)...

    The above Nailed it! But i wish i would have had my workshop in order before getting this tool called the sleeve. The head games are bumps in the road

    VSG on 5/11/20

    Every person here had second doubts - It is only a tool and it is a rough decision, but you are a addict you are addicted to unhealthy eating! This tool will help control this addiction and get you healthy if you follow the rules of the WLS Road. Only you can make the choice but i will tell you Most of us here will tell you it is the best decision we ever made! Good Luck -

    15 year weight loss success

    Great Success story - You are nearing the finish line You got this!
  16. WInston223322

    Where to start with everything?

    Start with a Bariatric surgeon in your area, And make a call to your insurance company to see if it is covered. I just went with the sleeve but all the information you need is here and tons of videos on Utube describing the options

    Vitamins!

    Bone is your calcium line Dont have that issue but somebody here may have it

    Dizziness

    Definitely Call the Doc = But i found i was dizzy due to low electrolytes - Once I started taking the pills you drop in water for runners it really helped
  19. You are covered its a pre existing condition, I actually checked on this

    Do you miss food?

    I really do not miss food, I eat healthy high end foods but in small amounts/ For me i was addicted to food and carbs - I am very lucky I never get hungry so I have to eat for fuel not for hunger. To me getting healthy is way ahead of eating tons of food

    Officially in the hair loss phase

    I am a male so Really do not care if i loose my hair = plus i had gradual hair loss due to age first. But what i can tell you is my female friends who had the surgery before me went thru this stage and it stopped and grew back. or be like me and Shave your head and loose weight and get asked if you have cancer every day! It will pass i have two friends that were sleeved and made it thru this phase.

    Non-Scale Victory

    A year and a half post op

    Ok I disagree with most of this! However I am not at this state or time frame! My view is your head is doing this, How the heck can you work so hard to get healthy and let some addictions take you back down the rode you were on! Bottom line STOP EATING. There has to be something else you can do besides snake and swallow. May be harsh but my view is simple we all work to hard to get to the finish line! It may happen to me but I never want to go thru this again and No way a bag of Fritos or candy is worth it to me. My view This WLS Head games are the demon that haunts us all

    Considering Surgery

    You only have to choose one of the two below Pick one 1. Stay the way you are with your addiction and your unhealthy lifestyle! Stay a addict and shortly you will develop diseases related to your obesity and will be miserable and in the mean time Order a Urn on Amazon cuz you are going to need it. You will miss out on years of time with family and friends. Slowly you will kill yourself and be miserable! 2. Get this tool, Fix you addiction and get healthy, Return the Urn to Amazon cuz you wont need it for awhile. Enjoy your new You and enjoy more time in this world! You pick 1 or 2 I am a straight forward No bully poop guy ... but really this is the only two decisions you have!
