Those are the same symptoms I had when I was gestational diabetic? How much sugar is in the shake?

I got the stomach bug a couple of weeks ago. I threw up for about 5 hours straight. Not any different than before but much less to come out.

I am a bit confused about your post. Do you think you are hungry because your stomach makes noise? Mine growls after everything I eat and drink. It has nothing to do with being hungry. At the stage...

My husband has that issue sometimes in his underarm area. He washes it a few times a day and keeps it dry but he also uses distilled white vinegar. It helps better than anything he has used from the...

Do you take omeprazole? This surgery is an acid producing surgery and many surgeons prescribe an antacid for a few weeks. For some reason the acid comes across as hunger pains.

I am reading The Ultimate Gastric Sleeve Success by Dr. Duc Vuong. It is a practical guide to having the sleeve and using it to the best of its ability. He does not sugar coat what needs to be done....

That is amazing. Your starting weight is the same as mine so I look forward to looking as wonderful as you do! Enjoy!

I love cottage cheese with a tbsp of low sugar marmalade for a snack or 1oz cheese with 1/2 an apple and a really great mustard.

I take Flintstones vitamins 2 times a day and all my 6 month blood work came back great. Why look for something more expensive when a simple Flintstone does the job?

I had several stick out and asked the PA at my surgeon's office. She pulled them out...ouch. I had a few more and I left them alone and they came out on their own without any pain. Leave them alone...

Something I read really made sense to me. What you eat now is how your hair will look in 3-4 months. So when you eat only a liquid diet for a few weeks, your hair suffers the consequences. The upside...

Are you talking about having soup or gulping down water? If you are sipping soup and finishing 4oz I wouldn't worry about. If you are talking about taking 4oz of water and chugging, I would warn...

Head hunger was my suggestion too. I get it something awful. Sometimes I have to just go to bed. My head is screaming, "eat something!" but I know darn well that my stomach does not need anything....

I have done WW online in the past. For the money, I would recommend myfitnesspal.com instead. Myfitnesspal is free and offers the same thing plus it tracks everything for you. You can customize it to...

I have had the beginnings of gout once or twice. The uric acid builds up in you joints. In my case it is in my big toe. My toe gets sore like it is swollen and aches like I have been wearing high...

You can take it. My surgeon perscribes if for a month after surgery. Good luck!

I had originally thought I would go with the lapband. I will admit it was because I didn't have all the info about the other surgeries but I also was not willing to recognize that I was still...

It sounds like you need the pain meds. If you are waking up and not able to sleep because of your surgery, them perhaps the pain meds are neccessary prior to bed. As my doctor said, "When else in...

Yes, broth is ok too. You may find that broth goes down easier too. Also, decaf tea is good too.

I have my water bottle next to me all night long. I drink when I wake up or roll over and I can get a good 6-8oz in that way. Also, my husband had his surgery in September and he has worn a Timex...

I have a question for you. What would you think is an acceptable amount of weight to have lost in less than 2 weeks? You just had major surgery. Give yourself a break and your body a chance to catch...

I think you need to ask yourself if you would feed a 2 week old baby a steak? You have essentially a new stomach. You could cause yourself some serious damage by not taking care of your pouch. This...

You can get omeprazole over the counter. It is generic of prevacid.

Do you take omeprazole? Many, many patients are prescribes anti-acid meds right after surgery because the increased acid in the new pouch can cause you to feel hungry.

Maybe the CEO just wants to show concern. Most of the time when people are having surgery and they don't say why, the assumption is cancer. If you don't want people to know what kind of surgery I...
