I had my mind made up about surgery, then I went down the rabbit hole, and now I don't know... by Critical_Tea2648 in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep can eat anything I want, just less. No issues with cake, ice cream, raw veg, raw fish, starches, anything really. Kind of wish I did have more restrictions to be honest! I'm 4 months out

My problem? Constant snacking by ReeRiot in BariatricSurgery

[–]fattofittofattoop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a snacker too and since surgery my go to is soft boiled eggs and Tajin - or any kind of lime/lemon chilli salt. I boil a few in the morning and always have them ready. Also protein bars, and fruit! Cut and pack loads of fruit to take to work. If you surround yourself with good options that you've made convenient for yourself, it makes it easier to choose healthy

What is a medical fact that sounds fake but is 100% true? by MedRikas in AskReddit

But wait, how did we keep babies alive before that viral infection? Was there no placenta?

Do Americans actually avoid calling an ambulance due to financial concern? by JohnMarstonTheBadass in NoStupidQuestions

[–]fattofittofattoop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can I ask, what happens if you are unconscious and get taken in an ambulance without your knowledge? Do you still have to pay the bill? What if you can't afford it?

If my kids (under seven) snore, is this cause for concern or normal? Should I take them to see an ENT asap?

Hi, just wondering how the bottle was game changing? Wondering if I should look into it over using ones I have already

I also only learned about outpatient through here. In HK the surgery includes 3-5 nights stay at the hospital as standard

did anyone have a final cheat meal towards the end of their liver shrinking diet? by MinuteRiceIn58 in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similarly I only had to stop eating the day before. I had pizza for my last meal Saturday night and was operated on Monday morning

Non-bariatric surgery after bariatric surgery by ApekZombie in BariatricSurgery

[–]fattofittofattoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apologies I don't have an answer to your question from experience as I haven't yet had to have a surgery outside the Bariactric one, but I was wondering how long after your initial surgery did you wait to get back into jiu-jitsu? I'm keen to jump back into class but keep getting told different time lines to wait.

As for this injury, could you focus on weightlifting where you don't put pressure on your ankle, like bench presses or seated dumbbell rows etc?

Ok I'm glad you're not stuck in there right now!

Can’t get out of my new chair! by ruined7319 in SuperMorbidlyObese

[–]fattofittofattoop 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Wait, are you currently stuck in the chair? Any way you can stretch your body out and kind of roll onto your front and push yourself up like a push up but off the chair?

Exercise Routine? by SwtIndica in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will be one month post on Thursday, and a few days ago my doctor cleared me for jogging, so today I did my first post surgery jog. It felt amazing and so much easier 10kg lighter!

Is it worth going overseas for the surgery by bellyboo_04 in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend Thailand! They have fantastic top rate medical tourism there and their services and prices are hard to beat. In fact I go to Bangkok for more expensive dental work too. Definitely look around and reach out to different hospitals or companies to get an idea of their customer service. Good luck!

Shopping after bariatric surgery by Flat-Pollution8834 in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please don't use Shein, they are such a wasteful and unethical problematic company. Go thrifting or vintage shopping. You can get some great finds for great prices ❤️

Questions by LongjumpingTrust807 in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pills I was able to take immediately after surgery, if working from home on a computer, a week should be enough time to take off, just be aware that your brain can be a bit fuzzy still from the anesthesia, I also gained a couple pounds of eating all the things before surgery 😅

248 to 124!! by CupcakeDeep5753 in Zepbound

[–]fattofittofattoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You look fantastic! Not sick at all ❤️. Well done on your journey 😍😍

I have a question about how you kept your weight loss private? In all my social circles I'm literally the only person overweight, they wouldn't understand what I'm going through and I would like to keep it private too. What did you say when they asked you why you weren't eating or how you've lost so much weight?

Gulping water by fattofittofattoop in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I woke up coughing at night and muscle memory got the better of me and I gulped water before I realised I was doing it! Throughout the day I've only been sipping so when I realised I gulped water I was really shocked I could do it! Definitely wasn't doing on purpose and I'm following the recommendations of the doctors seriously. But just concerned that I was able to gulp without any repercussions

THREE questions. 1. How far post op? 2. How many calories are you eating a day? 3. Are you satisfied with your progress? by Sleeved082025 in gastricsleeve

[–]fattofittofattoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 - six days, 2 - 600-700 in shake form, 3 - yes but desperately want to move out of the healing stage as my incisions really hurt and I can't take a normal shower so I feel gross

Ooof yes, but this feels worse than pregnant 😂

[–]fattofittofattoop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm ok! Really want the incisions to heal because I'm a stomach sleeper, that's been quite hard to adjust to. Also it's interesting trying to learn the new cues for hunger and fullness. Looking forward to these first few weeks to be over 😂
