Topic: RE: MY RESEARCH ON GASTRIC SLEEVE PRO'S AND CON'S, CAN YOU GIVE ADVICE?

Thank you for your true honesty, I have issues with Iron deficiencies. I was feeling like maybe this won't be good but I have to lose weight for health issues. I went to seen Hemoglobin doctor they said they treat a lot of people with blood disorders because of the weight loss surgery depraves iron and vitamins and proteins from the body. I am praying on still strive to work on it naturally until I get proper insurance for help. Thank you so much for sharing.

I guess because people were saying how they didn't lose weight on it or hit a point only lost 50 lbs no more. I have and cousin who did it she lost 89 lbs in a year. that was over 5 years ago. she still nice thick size but not the way she used to look. Thank you for asking.

I had gastric sleeve surgery on July 12, 2016. Nothing but rave reviews. I was 405 before pre-surgery diet. 385 at surgery time. By November 1, 2016 I had reached 295. I am currently experiencing a plateau at 288. I need to go back to low/no sweets.

I no longer take any medication for diabetes, high blood pressure, or cholesterol. I also no longer suffer from sleep apnea. My skin issues are minimal BUT you must, with any surgery - INGEST CONSISTENT PROTEIN ABOVE WHAT THEY RECOMMEND, STAY HYDRATED AND TAKE HIGH QUALITY LIQUID VITAMINS WITH A CALCIUM AND IRON SUPPLEMENT. I can make specific recommendations. Without this, you will suffer hair loss, more skin sag, fragile bones etc.

I suffered two hair line fractures while exercising BEFORE I began taking the liquid calcium.

I was banded in 2003, back then I was pretty active but now I'm back since I may be getting rebanded (hopefully).

Topic: New, Againð??? But a bit gassy

Hello all. I have another page (username willsgnc) that I used during my transition back in 2007. I'm about ten years out and for the past few days been a bit too gassy.

What can I do to relieve it? What about the baking soda and warm water remedy?

Been drinking peppermint and chamomile tea. Stopped drinking coffee (yesterday?)

I haven't taken stool softeners since surgery. But now, I'm thinking about it. I'm just wondering if I'm far enough out to try it. I've kept my weight down very well, this Far.
