November 25, 2008 - 3 month f/u I went to my 3 month f/u appointment today. I have lost 9 lb since my last visit. At my last appointment I had lost 14 lbs in between visits. Oh well, 9 lbs is still good. I did not get a fill. My doctor said not to drink the BA meal replacement shakes. He said if I am only hungry once a day, then only eat once a day. He said to ride this wave for as long as I can because it wont last forever.

November 22, 2008 - NSV On Friday night, I was planning on standing in line, in the cold, for tickets to see the Spurs play. For every 10 cans of yams, you got 2 tickets. I don't have any warm clothes that fit, so I went to Wal Mart to buy a sweat suit or jeans.
November 20, 2008 - F/U with nutritionist I had my follow up with the nutritionist today. I last saw her three months ago. It has been four months since I was banded. I have not lost any weight in the last two weeks. I told her that lately I have not been eating breakfast or lunch. She recommended I eat lunch, but if I don't, I am to drink a Bariatric Advantage meal replacement.
Be the first to leave a comment.She gave me a handout with the ten commandments. They are: 1. Eat only three small meals a day. (1/2-1cup) 2. Chew slowly. (approximately 15 to 20 times a bite.) Wait 1-2 min between bites 3. Stop eating as soon as you feel satisfied. 4. Don't drink while you are eating. 30/60 rule. 5. Don't eat between meals. 6. Eat only fresh food. 7. Minimum intake food with high fiber content. 8. Drink enough water. (48-72oz) during the day. 9. Drink only calorie free or low calorie liquids. 10. Take multi-vitamin and calcium supplement at night. Tuna Salad Recipe: 1 6oz can canned tuna in water 1/4 cup prepared basil pesto sauce 6 oil-packed sun dried tomatoes, drained and diced 2 TBSP low fat mayo or plain yogurt 2 TBSP grated low fat Parmesan cheese. She also said that I should be eating 500-800 calories a day, Protein 40-50%; 60-70g/day. I go on Tuesday to see my surgeon.
November 17 and 18, 2008 - sick and vomiting
Browse pages: next >
Monday: I started off the day feeling fine. At lunch time I ate a 2 crackers, started vomiting and dry heaving. I took phenergan and slept the rest of the day. During the evening I felt did not feel great.
Be the first to leave a comment.Tuesday: I felt yucky. I did try to eat lunch and now feel worse. No more vomiting though. My Story I started my efforts to get WLS in 2001. I was denied. Then, I tried again in 2005, and my insurance company only covered $3000. I then started the process again in 2007 with my new insurance company, BCBS IL. I met all the requirements, and they denied me. My case was turned over to Obesity Law, and I found out today, July 29, 2008, that I have been approved. Thank you Jesus! |
