Hey, I’m glad to see that you are doing videos again. I was wondering if you had bathroom issues. I have been struggling with it pretty much no matter what. If so have heard of how others have done with that… I was prescribed creon and then zenpep or something like that with no luck.

I did not have anything bad enough to consider medication. I do tend to have looser BMs than before surgery, and occasionally it’s urgent, but that has gotten better over the years since surgery. It helps me to limit lactose, as I have become intolerant since surgery.

Hi. Just stopping by to say I’ve started to binge watch your videos. Im going thru all the pre op requirements now and hoping to have my DS surgery in February-ish, so your videos are really helping me prepare!!
@HeatherFeathering Жыл бұрын
Good luck! I still would do this all over again in a heartbeat. I wish I had done it sooner, but if I had gotten surgery much sooner I probably would have had gastric bypass, and I don’t think I would have been as successful.

Lovely seeing you again. You look great! I too have had some real depression/anxiety over covid. I still wear a mask going in grocery stores and other places with people I dont know. My husband says it's time to get help. We'll see. Luckily my weight has stayed off. I lost doing keto/carnivore not surgery. I think since I was so used to eating that way for several years that covid didnt effect it. Any way, so glad your family is doing well after having covid. Lucky you with a pool. I'm envious. Good luck with the new med. Hope it does the trick for you. Take care Heather!

Good to hear from you! I am close to you in NC. Had DS in 2018, and have regain also 😞. Started Saxenda till Wegovy is back in supply. Have lost 10 pounds in 2 months, but I am not to highest dose yet. Though about Mounjaro. Did your doctor recommend Mounjaro over Wegovy?
@HeatherFeathering Жыл бұрын
By the time I agreed to try injectable medication, she couldn’t prescribe wegovy due to lack of supply. My insurance wouldn’t cover ozempic, but it does, somehow, cover Mounjaro.

Glad you’re still “in the game!” I’ve been following Monjaro with interest. I would love to have the “food focus” to be lifted! I too, put on a lot of weight during Covid. Struggling to get down, too! Hoping Monjaro continues to help!

The 10/30 is just the sizing not length, I thought the same thing. Like an 8 is a 29, 8/29 and my 6's are 6/28. I still have not found where that actual measurement matches on my body, but that is the clothing industry for you. Still watching....

Heather, I liked that last one on you. I love the idea of thread up, because I love a good deal, the problem is, that you don't know how people cared for their items... like washing things in hot and shrinking it slightly. Regain is a pain enough, but wearing things that don't fit well will only make you feel worse about it. I liked that 2nd blue shirt (where you had 2 back to back blue shirts) Maybe if you're wanting to go with slightly used items for while while you're in transition, maybe go try them on in store, so you're not stuck with things that don't fit like you are expecting it to. It's always nice to see your videos <3
