Anyone for August 2020
tarotcardreader replied to MotivatedMomma's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wonder if youve talked to your surgeon because if you are having an appetite they might be able to prescribe an appetite suppressant. Let them know! -

3 Week Stall Turning into 5 Week Stall
tarotcardreader replied to kaRmakat's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Hey congrats on those lbs. i read the closer you get to a lower weight the weight loss slows. Maybe make an appointment with your dietician and go over a weeks worth of food log. They have seen it all and usually have good tips -

34 Days Post Op eating trouble (Phase 4 )
tarotcardreader replied to IsaSamu's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I cant do crystal light too bitter tasting. The shakes dont sit well for me either. Did your nutritionist not give you a handout for stage 4? The program book they gave me has list of foods and meal examples. I am still in purees. You could try going back a stage until you make an appointment with your dietician to get her advice. -
Not hungry just very thirsty
tarotcardreader replied to Krissy2's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I concur with catwoman please drink your water dehydration is number one reason for hospital visit after surgery. They may have to put iv in. Im not afraid to gain from water. You might need to speak with the counselor. I do want to add that its a good sogn you arent hungry some people who get sleeve still have appetite so you got lucky there 🥴👍🏼 -
How do you know you are ready
tarotcardreader replied to Sara_Lee's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I graduated grad school before even trying. I think its possible to do having done both, but you will probably feel like hell. If you have complications will be even worse. Maybe you will be one of the lucky ones who has no complications pain or il feelings though and then it would b no sweat. If it were me id set the date one week after program finished. -
My Thought This AM before Surgery

Hey you hope everything goes well keep us updated 🍀 -
I have the same concerns about work im thinking maybe preemptive med every morning

You should try bentyl for your cramps. The difference between a lactose incident vs the dumping for me is you have a bit of nausea some pouch pressure and instead of a few hours it kinda lingered a day

No eggs on purée?
tarotcardreader replied to mediocreoblongata's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
The gb is considered the gold standard scientifically because we have the most statistical data for it making it Be a bit less “experimental” when coming to side effects and weight kept off. -
Very good point here. Its some peoples personality maybe raised that way.

Very similar except most of mine is puree. The shakes r hard to tolerate -

No eggs on purée?
tarotcardreader replied to mediocreoblongata's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Most practices offer rny because its the gold standard not as complex and has a lower death rate. I dont know what country you are in but here in america gastric bypass is standard but sleeve is more popular this year statistically -
No eggs on purée?
tarotcardreader replied to mediocreoblongata's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am allowed eggs and pouch seems to tolerate sometimes i just eat the juice outta the yolk of fried egg. I agree with the person who adds things to eat them fluffy. I like egg substitute w laughing cow cheddar -
I try to eat three times a day but its not scheduled because if i feel like im going to hurl i put it off for an additional hour hoping there will be more room in the pouch for it

Weight Gain after VSG
tarotcardreader replied to Meggie1111's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Hey girl regain is actually common that far out on the sleeve statistically you are not alone. You could try to get revision to d switch or you could try to lose the lbs by following plan. Also maybe consider getting apetite suppressant to help if you feel hunger. This reads more like binge so maybe make appointment w counselor -
