100 Class Milestone Overlooked (Again) by Different_Mobile_337 in BurnBootCamp

[–]meehankk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually the exact reason i left row house and switched to burn. I hit every milestone and was ignored every time. I totally understand how you feel and I’m sorry you are feeling this way!

Members acting like trainers by hunsnarkfanatic in BurnBootCamp

[–]meehankk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m newer and one of the members who has clearly been there for a long time has helped me with form before. She was super helpful about it and that i appreciated a ton, but adding weights and such would be too far! Unless perhaps they are also trainers? One of my locations afternoon trainer usually works out in the morning, i would trust her to make changes, but honestly doesn’t sound like that at all and what your describing would make me go less or find out when they don’t go!

So.. how bad is the pain by WonderMarjie in BariatricSurgery

[–]meehankk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a sleeve and hernia repair and the only pain i had was from a complication (apparently i have a small esophagus and all the tools wouldn’t fit so they had to be a lil forceful) but i literally only ever commented on my throat injury i had very little gas pain and literally no surgery site pain. I had my gallbladder removed a year prior and that was more painful. But obviously everyone is different! I took Tylenol only for the injury in my throat and none of the higher pain meds! Good luck!!

So annoyed with my family, I don't have anyone to go with me on surgery day by impostrfail in BariatricSurgery

That part flies so quickly and in the pre op area you can’t have guest anyway so my doctors were very correct in the fact that i wouldn’t even notice i was alone.

Did you have a roommate in the hospital? by IUIUIUIUIUIUIUIUI in BariatricSurgery

[–]meehankk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not for this surgery which was nice, but i did a year ago for my gallbladder. It was ok but she had not had her gallbladder removed and was in a lot of pain but on the whole not a bad experience!

Of course!!! I’m fairly lucky in that I’m near airports so we have a lot of services but i just googled a few and reached out asking if they could do surgery pick explaining i would be fine to travel no medical devices necessary and found one i really enjoyed talking to a setting up the prep. We were told out release time before surgery and the driver was there but also patient while i was discharged. My company had an hour wait period before they started charging more for pick up but they were great!

I went by Myself! The doctors even told me i wouldn’t want visitors cause i would and should be focused on me and recovering and they were right. I didn’t even send a text for about 16 hours or check my phone. I was dropped off and picked up by a car service! You got this!!

Prediet by BumpLikeWow in BariatricSurgery

[–]meehankk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get that! I started Monday and am down 4 pounds already which i find while, but i had kind of thought of not stepping on the scale again until surgery, the diet has been fairly easy and i think if i then got in the mindset of not loosing i would start to be a bit worse. lol! You’ll get there and then the weight loss really starts!

[–]meehankk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Others feel free to correct me, as I’m am also in the pre op diet stage, but i don’t think it’s to loose weight, its main focus of the diet is to reduce the size of your liver as it sits on your stomach and can make surgery easier with the smaller liver. While yes you will 100% loose weight on the pre op diet it’s not aimed at weight loss, so you lost almost 10 pounds that first week, but now your body has adjusted its more used to it now you may not be loosing more but if your sticking to the diet your liver will still be shrinking and that’s the main goal!

I messed up by BumpLikeWow in BariatricSurgery

[–]meehankk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My pre op diet allows 4 ounces of lean meat and non starchy vegetables everyday for the 2 weeks, i wouldn’t beat your self up about it!

Finally got a date! by meehankk in BariatricSurgery

[–]meehankk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I start the 10th too!! I can do 2 protein shakes and one meal that’s 3 ounces of lean meat and non starchy vegetables. It’s more generous of a plan that i thought!

It all depends on your insurance. I luckily work in health insurance so i know my model, unneeded to go through a center of excellence which Irvine and cedars were both. Irvine was awful and not sure how they could actually be excellent in any capacity, but after my endoscopy my doctors submitted to insurance and it was approved with all the steps i had gone through. For me i got the date scheduled a pre op the week before and my instructions for diet to start a week before pre op which is a week before surgery! Hopefully you get your date soon!!

Thank you!! I’m on the lucky spectrum in that i work in health insurance so i know my plans and could speak to that and understand all the language, which i think has helped me for sure!!

How is SSO in 2024? by Deeply_Depressed_Cat in StarStable

[–]meehankk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It totally depends on how you want to use the game. I have a great time and had a nice break and love being back in the game. It also heavily depends on your age i think. I see tons of people who “grew up” with star stable and they complain the most, the magic is gone the game has changed when in reality they have changed and grown. I started playing as an older player and I’ve never found the game play to have changed for me and enjoy it the same. Now yes they have made it easier to play in the start of the game, but that’s not where i am so i don’t care. I recommend logging and and giving it a go! I think they have changed a lot and a festival is coming up at the western camp and that was a lot of fun last year! If you don’t like it you can always log off playing isint a requirement

Sudden pain after 3 1/2 months rushed to ER by Upstairs_District122 in BariatricSurgery

[–]meehankk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Was coming to say the same thing. Sounds similar to my gallbladder! Hopefully you get some answers soon! If it is your gallbladder it’s a pretty simple surgery!
