WLS on Strong Medicine (Lifetime)
I watch Strong Medicine every Sunday night on Lifetime. Tonight,
two patients (A husband/wife pair) decided to proceed with WLS, with
the wife going first. They had complications (something about the
blood vessels making it more difficult) but she survived surgery.
Once back in her room, the doc came back in and they went over the
usual points...eat often, but not much, the sizes (football to egg)
that fatty foods and sugars have to be avoided, regular exercise
routine...all that. They had her eating mashed potatoes and boiled
chicken in the hospital, though. That didnt seem very accurate to
what has been shared with me so far. Then when they released her,
the two went to the movies where she proceeded to eat like she used
to...so of course, they then rushed her back to the ER. All in all,
it wasnt totally bashing. I thought I would share. Night to all of
you!!
