    Hello. I have a question for you. I'm on 4 weeks out. Can I sleep on my stomach? Is it safe if I sleep facing down on my stomach like I used to before? Do you? Will I hurt my sleeve or inner staples?

    Hi there. Everything is great. I'm at 192 as of last friday. I have not weighed myself anymore. I'm fully recovered. Tomorrow I can already eat solids. I have been on liquids still, like broths, cream of soup, sugar free jello. I have not moved on to eating other foods like scrambled egg or cottage cheese. Hopefully when I start eating this week, I will get full faster since my stomach has not been exposed to PHASE III foods. Idk...I can't believe I got sleeved. I can't believe that for the first time in over a year I'm under 200 pounds. Slowly but surely, right? How are you doing?

    hello there. I wanted to ask you something. Maybe it doesn't apply to you, but what if I don't loose any weight during my 2 week rapid weight loss diet before the surgery? Is it bad?
  5. I think the pain in my chest is the kind of pain when your sooo hungry or you have a gas bubble. Ive been having trouble keeping water down, and the only thing i drank all day was 1/2 of a shake. im going to try to go for my 2 mile walk tomorrow, we finally have some sun. Happy Mothers Day to all... Darlene

    Hey hun, Surgery went well and as of post op day 4 I am doing pretty good. I dont have any real complaints, i am able to keep liquids down, I am not overly tired, although my sleep pattern is all out of whack, since surgery I have not been able to sleep more than 4-5 hours, but I figure as I heal it will become more comfortable. How is your recovery going? Now about this chest pain is it constant? Do you think it may be gas pains? Does walking help? If not I would suggest contacting your Dr. as it may be a sign of a clot ( hope and pray that its not) please keep us posted!
  7. ok friends, i had my surgery on the 8th, stayed 2 nights, they let me go because i wasnt having any problems drinking anything.. and now that im home i have this pain right in the middle of my chest where the sternum is, ive been trying to drink my atkins and isnt going down like it was before. Input anyone?
  8. Good luck! I know this will be the best...take care and keep us posted.

failing horribly : (

by Only1doll on 01-29-2015 at 06:40 PM
OK, I'm almost 3 years out and I'm gaining weight , and it's only MY fault! I'm making such bad food choices but all I crave is peanut m&M's. I'm very disappointed in myself and I'm spiraling downward, falling into a deep depression and not knowing what to do with myself or to myself. I'm not sure why I'm putting this up here nor do I know what to expect from this, maybe putting it down on paper will make me smarten up. I don't know anymore.

Can someone give me the weekley run down on the foods that can be introduced?... Thank you so much.. Darlene
