    Can’t eat

    I had the sleeve done 3 years ago and I keep having issues with eating. I have days where I have to go throw up everything I eat minutes after I eat it. It’s so bad this time around that I can’t even sip on water. Nothing is staying down. Does anyone have this issue? What helps this?

    Double-takes F*cking Rule

    I'm not one to like attention but since my weight loss I love how people react when they see me. Just last night a friend said that I had lost half of myself. I'm doing this for me but it's nice when people notice my weight loss. Gotta keep losing!

    Still loving my sleeve over 2 years out

    Wow! You look great. I'm 7 months out and so far so good. My biggest fear is gaining it all bad. I'm not where I want to be but I'm getting there. Finally got it thru my head that I still need to watch what I eat and work out to be successful.

    NOT the easy way out...

    Nope not the easy way at all. Just a tool. You still have to put in the work! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    How Often Do You Weigh Yourself?

    Now that I am working out and counting calories.....I weigh once a week to make sure I'm losing weight. Before I only did it once a month because I kept stalling and it was frustrating not seeing any weight loss. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Weight gaining after sleeve?

    Even though you won't be able to eat big meals like before you still have to watch out with grazing. I count my calories to stay on track because if I wanted to I could eat all day and calories can add up. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Rice

    I'm 7 months out and I can only eat a little bit before it fills me up. Same with Pasta. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App
  9. I look forward to taking pictures with my family. I've always hated the way I looked and felt. Now that I have lost 104 pounds I'm okay with taking pictures but not too many. I'm sure that will change as I keep loosing weight. I'm also looking forward to being more active. I did 1 5k last year and I'm signed up for 2 this year. I'm much happier and positive. I'm actually excited about life! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Signed up to the gym

    I recently started going to the gym two weeks ago and I love it. For me, it was time to get physical. I feel the fat just melting away. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Anyone notice a stall pattern?

    My stall is similar to yours. I lose weight and then it stalls for 3 weeks. I don't worry about it too much just as long as I'm losing inches. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Excited with results

    Congratulations! I got sleeved May 31 and just started walking/jogging 3 weeks ago. I should have started sooner but I had a rough recovery from surgery. I'm doing my 1st 5k in 2 weeks. So nervous and excited at the same time. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Swelling

    I had the sleeve done May 31. I'm almost 4 month post-op. I have lost 80 pounds and swelling is better but it's still an issue. I guess I just thought it would go away by now but then again I'm just starting. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Apples or Peaches?

    I'm 10 weeks out and I started eating fruits and veggies around week 8. Just chew, chew, chew and you shouldn't have a problem. I didn't. I can't eat too much but it's nice to eat something different. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

    Acid reflux

    My doctor put me on acid reflux meds and it's helping me out big time. I still get acid reflux but it's getting better and better. This is my second month taking it and now I only have reflux once or twice a week. Some dairy, coffee, and anything with red dye triggers my acid reflux.

    What can I expect?

    Everyone recovery is different. I unfortunately wasn't one of the lucky ones that had a smooth recovery. I'm 6 weeks out and finally feel so much better. I had a lot of nausea to the point where I would vomit and ended up in the ER twice for fluids. Even though I'm better, I don't think I would have the energy for Disney.

    Constantly nauseous

    I'm on week 5 from gastric sleeve and I'm nauseous all the time. Eating is fine but I'm having trouble getting my liquids is impossible because the more I drink the worse I feel. My doctor put me on medicine for acid reflux. He also told me that the more dehydrated I get, the worse the nausea will be. I have been dealing with it for the past 2 weeks and it's horrible!
