  1. congratulations! you look awesome!
  2. Hi all. Not sleeved yet but had a thought today as I suffered through a reaction to antibiotic for a bacterial infection. Anyways. When I have the flu I also drink sprite and eat soups or buttered noodles and crackers to help settle my stomach. I know after the sleeve those are no-nos. any of you get the flu weeks,months, years after sleeving? If so what did you eat/drink to help you? Thanks
  3. Good luck! I was 324 at my consult on aug 29. Have my sleep study tonight, psych eval and edg on sept 21 and nut in the 25. So excited to get this done!
  4. I plan on it although I was not given a schedule yet. Not sure when they meet. I have my sleepy study this evening....yikes How you doing?
  5. thanks ssriley! that's what i was looking for!
  6. yeah, i;m trying to figure out how to track my measurements and weight with graphs on a spreadsheet . i will be up playing for a while tonight
  7. anyone use a spreadsheet to track your progress? i am trying to think of a way to make this easy. any thoughts? did you find one online?
  8. i'm assuming that you lose everywhere but everyone is different. for that reason i have taken a LOT of measurements every hwere on my body. i did the most common ones, but also added stuff like my face, neck shoulders, i did each finger, wrists, ankles and calves. we shall see
  9. Excellent everyone. Thank you! Dexter I will check my surgeon great idea. An I already have Xanax
  10. Last Friday I went to my pulmanologist apt. The doctor was very surprised that I am"fairly" healthy other than high BMI. No known comorbidities. He was trying to bypass the sleep test if I didn't need it and sent me home with a pulse ox tester to wear overnight. If that was positive or signs of apnea then I would have to schedule the sleep study. Well got the call today and I failed the overnight pulse ox. So now I have to go fr a sleep study. If I do have apnea knowing that the surgery and losing weight will hopefully make that go away. Can you rent those cpap machines or do you have to buy them? Anyone know?
  11. awesome. thanks! i am seeing the nut soon so i will see what our surgeon requires then. thanks again!
  12. once sleeved are protein shakes a forever thing or just so many weeks/months after surgery? thanks!
