Topic: RE: do you love your sleeve and/or dr.gorospe?
I've heard many great things about dr.b. congrats on your success. I would like you to pm me about what you've heard about dr.gorospe and your reasons for not trusting. I'm considering him as my surgeon. Thanks so much!
Topic: RE: Still suffering with HORRIBLE gas bubbles
I'm glad you're feeling better. I'm a gulper too and it is awful on the gas. I've got to learn to slow down (and I'm 3 months out!) and take smaller sips. I just get so thirsty that it feels like it'll never get quenched. Hope you're healing well and you love your sleeve as much as I do!

It's been a good day. I had to drive my sister to Tulsa to the airport so no eating in the car (this is a big win for me, I had gotten used to having a snack in the car whenever I went anywhere). I came home and had my protein filled dinner and for dessert? celery with peanut butter :)
Brittany, have a great time on your trip. I will keep the post going!

Glad you are feeling better. It's easier to enjoy the weightloss journey when you aren't miserable :)

I had the sleeve procedure. I am so much better today! Finally could not stand it any longer so I got a massage! It is unbelievable how much that helped! I felt like a million dollars.
My wonderful doctor called and told me I am a person that gulps a lot of air and to pay particular close attention to when I am sucking in air and not even know it! I have been amazed today as I have started on that new life transforming moment.
Thank you for your answer and I hope my solution will help others.

I've been a bad WLS patient this week (and it's only Tuesday) because I am having some insane gallbladder attacks and it makes me so nauseous that all I can stomach is a piece of toast and I haven't been on the elliptical since Saturday. I'm going on a mini vacation tonight through Sunday then I have my 3 month post op visit on Monday afternoon so I'll definitely be holding myself accountable while I'm away because I know I'll be seeing my cute little Cajun doctor as soon as I get back. Have an excellent week and I'm so proud of you ladies!

I think I have to focus on one day at a time right now. I am still pre-op, but know I have to start working on letting go of the Diet Cokes and the Carbs. I need to focus on getting in more water and some kind of extra movement in my life. So.....starting tomorrow I will be focusing on those two things. Water and movement. Thanks for posting this and making me think about it!

Which surgery did you have? I'm not sure if the answer I give you will help with every surgery but it worked with my lap band.
I'm sure you know walking helps, if you are still not able to walk too much, rocking in a rocking chair helps (don't knock it, I have had my post op cesarean patients do this and it helps them!). Taking the liquids slow really helps too. I am a gulper when it comes to water & such so that was a hard lesson for me to learn.
Best wishes!
