I am so disgusted with myself, for the life of me I can't stop eating...it's all junk food and I can't get enough!!! I thought the Ghrelin was removed with the sleeve??? I am so bothered by this, I...

I too can no longer drink milk or eat ice cream, my savior is YougurtLand next door, I treat myself every week to frozen yogurt (a little). I can't stomach the other milks out there either (soy,...

Don't panic, extreme fatigue is normal and will last a month or two. Your body is adjusting to the lack of fuel. Everyone I know that had the surgery (8 of us) have all experienced the fatigue, I...

When I had my surgery I stayed in the house, it was loud, crowded and I left early because I couldn't get any sleep...people snoring. I went back with my girlfriend and stayed in the hotel and it...

Omg! What do you do to stop the spasms.. They had to put me on morphine with anti nausea meds. They have me taking codeine 3 times a day for a week.

They sure did and there was nothing wrong.

Not sure if this has happened to anyone yet, but if it did please advise me so I know what's going on.
Six moths post surgery and I'm in Aruba on vacation, ate a small meal (steak and noodles),...

You will lose hair, take the Biotin and prenatal vitimans, there's nothing you can do, it will only last a month or two, I got my hair cut short and i'm actually happy with it.

I too live on the heallthy choice meals, some have high protein. Some days I can eat the whole meal, other days I eat half..depends how much snaking I did before lunch or dinner.

You no longer have that choice on how much you can eat, your body tells you, enough is enough. You will adjust, it takes time to figure out what you can and can't eat. I actually mourned food, I...

I sucks eating, i'm finding myself falling into my old way of eating which is not good! Ughhhh, i'm not suppose to be hungry!!

Dr Lara is incredable, he's such a nice guy...if I plan on getting something done I will only see him, hes the best!!!

I'm 4 months out and I've only had problems with a few foods. I actually get hungry every two hours so I eat cheez it's all day. I don't eat much for lunch or dinner, a few bites and no more. I don't...

I work in a prison,I told the guys I couldn't beat them on the war on drugs, so decided to join them and found meth to be my drug of choice now. The fools probably believe me....but telling them I...

Yep people suck, I got quite a bit of attitude until the weight started falling off, now five of my worst critics are having it done or already had it done, I just laugh...hoping maybe just one of...

It takes time, your body is still getting used to the changes and remember you are not eating much. I do the B12 shots and also take a prenatal vitamin. I still get tired often and have a hard time...

I puke if I drink while I eat or right after, it's horrible!!

OMG!!! I watch the way everyone eats, maybe because now I have plenty of time to??? I was laughing at my sister, she eats like a wild animal, LOL I hope I didn't do that.

Your abs are gonna be sore for awhile, I've gone back to the gym and do 30-40 minutes of cardio and weights, tried oilseed and it brought tears to my eyes!! So watch the abs for awhile!

Rainbow, I'm having the same issues. I've up my carbs and I throw up within minutes of eating. I'ts not like I can go to the doctor and ask for my stomach back, I'm taking Prilosec but that doesn't...

Melanie, are you feeling better since surgery? You lost your weight fast too!!! Good job!!!

Ranchersdaughter, I have to laugh...you didn't weigh much more than me!!! I am by far starving, my bloodwork is perfect and I have more energy than i've had in years!!! So, I probably won't drop...

Thanks rainbow, you've given me some encouragement!!! I've completely avoided all sugar and live on beans, chicken and soup...of course 2-3oz's of each. I hate to start back into my poor eating...

Wow, I feel really bad for you...not for your complications, but how you feel about yourself. Demanding another person perform a procedure on you that could kill you would be murder if you died, but...

I had surgery on a Thursday went back to work on Monday. You won't be in any pain, just not much energy. If you have a desk job a week is plenty of time.
