On another note, everytime I tried to talk to my surgeon about it, he told me I just needed to wait it out and be patient. I'm sure you understand just how frustrating that is to hear from the only...

I am in the same boat that you are in and it sounds like our problems are similar. I am 3 months post op. My first 2 weeks things were going great and then all of a sudden week 3, I couldn't even...

The recovery was a peice of cake. I unfortunitly also had another surgery done at the same time which caused a bunch of lengthy problems. But as far as recovery from the sleeve, no problems....

I have had this dull aching sort of pain in my stomach that sort of wraps around to my back. It comes and goes and happens when I'm sitting in a certain position (driving) or on my feet. I am...

I have definitly found myself freezing this summer as well. Everyone always thinks I'm crazy when I throw my fleece on and it's 90 degrees outside but something about the AC chills me to the bone.

I think it's most likely carb with drawl. Broth always made me feel better too. Best of luck with your up coming surgery

It's been a huge pain! Not to mention country girl trying to drive in Boston. But because of this rare swallowing thing I have, none of the local doc's knew what to do with me. Dr. M has really...

Yeah,I really like him. I have been having a really hard time getting fluids down still. I started out okay, but then everything started coming back up. He actually did another surgery on me at...

Joni we had the same surgeon! I just had mine done a month ago. I felt so much better after about a week. It was like I hadn't even had the surgery at first. Hang in there!

I did not have to do a liquids diet pre op except for the day before I had to go on clear liquids. My diet consisted of 2 protein shakes a day, 2 frozen low cal meals (like lean cuisine) 2 cups of...

I believe as long as you don't take more than 50+ grams of protein at one time, it's fine. Most servings of lean meat are about 20 grams of protein so it should be just fine. What is the name of...

Wow 100 lbs in 5 months! That's amazing. I have no answer to your question, just wanted to say way to go! :)

I really want to get walking. I am wondering when everyone else started walking for actually calorie burn? Is it okay to do 30 minutes on the treadmill at a fast walk or incline? I'm seeing my Dr....

I was a bit nervous about the whole thing, but in all honesty, worrying about it isn't going to get you anywhere. Everyone reacts differently after surgery. I had absolutely no problems and you...

I wanted to suggest a soup I found tonight, it's in a green little box, it's potato lentil. So yummy! It's by V8 but is in the soup isle

Popsicles. Feel better!

Just be careful with the gummy ones, they are usually missing the B vitamins which are very important

The program I am in request that we take 2 flinstone chewable s a day. Piece of cake!

I was just sleeved on the 25th. I tried to change my eating habits before my surgery as well. At one point I was so miserable that I was like screw this, I'm not doing it. Now that I'm on the...

You know it's funny you mentioned this. I am 2 days away from my surgery and about 2 weeks ago I started binging as well, which I have never done on purpose before. I had the same feeling like I...

Unjury comes highly recommended. I haven't used ityet, but I just recieved 4 different kinds of it for after my surgery. I had a lot of people recommend the brand. You can only get it online and...

Goodluck with your apt! My sleeve is in a little under 8 weeks. I can't wait but have the same type of fears.

Best of luck in your recovery! I hope your tummy starts feeling better soon.

I haven't had my sleeve yet, but I have been reading books like crazy. The book I just read about weight loss surgery said that generally people loose 1/2 the amount of weight they will end up...

I'm sorry she was so rude to you, I would have been really upset too. Unfortunitly there will always be haters and there will always be negativity. The important thing is to focus on the good...
