Hey guys,
It's been a while since I was here. Today is my one year anniversary since I had a gastric sleeve, and it's been a terrific thing that I did for myself.

I think you're more scared of missing food than you are of the surgery. If you went with the surgery, you would probably lose 75-100 lbs right off the bat. Without this surgery you're not going to...
I felt a funeral in my brain. That's the name of an Emily Dickenson poem, and it's what you're going through with food. I have felt the same way. Food is an addiction and you're going through...
I did, it worked great. No issues at all. Janese is really nice. I have a writeup of my trip here:...
Congratulations!
I went to TJ alone and used Dr. Lopez. There's nothing to worry about going alone.
Congratulations Kailey!
@relkins - there's a lot of people that have posted about their experiences in Mexico on this forum, just search. I logged my whole experience with Drs. Lopez & Osuna at...
Nope, no reflux at all.last week I had some problem with foamies but they've disappeared. Things are awesome with this thing.
Updated with pictures.
Congratulations Connie!
I just got back from spending several days at my M-I-L's house and seeing my family as well (they live 15 minutes from each other). I could tell that I'd lost while I was down there, even though I...
Yup - when I get hiccups, it's a sign that I've eaten too much. I will sometime sip a liquid to help it go down and be done eating. I've had two regurgitation instances, both in the past three...
I doubt you'd like it. Go ahead and try it to get the craving out of your system. It's not going to kill you. Our tastes are different after surgery.
I'm incredibly sad about this.
100lbs in 6 months, then a 3-week stall? You've already succeeded. Eat a bit more. Enjoy life. The weight will continue to drop off.
I look at it like this: if it takes 1 week to lose 2 lbs, I'll lose 8-10 lbs per month. In a year that's 120 pounds. If I stall for two weeks and then at the end of that stall I suddenly lose 5 lbs,...
I really thought this was a transgender question at first. As a man, mine are as normal as they have ever been.
Seeing that the OP is a first time poster (although having had this surgery over a year ago), has a screen name of "Survivor", and tells a sob story on a forum where people are already anxious about...
Not crazy. I've gone from needing the fan on all night long under a thin blanket wearing only boxers to wearing a tshirt and pajama bottoms underneath the sheets and blanket without a fan. I think...
I had almost no pain at all, so I think you are having a normal experience. Congratulations! Prepare to get skinny!
Very cool... You're doing great. It's all downhill from here.
My jeans have been too big, so I have already bought sizes 4 inches smaller and in straight leg - I have *never* bought straight leg before. I'm about to hit 40 lbs lost in the next day or two. My...
John - looking forward to your update.
Don't worry about this, it's a non-issue.
It will be really cool when you come back. The seatbelt will definitely fit better. This is going to be one of the easiest things you've ever done that's really good for you. I'll pray for a...
