    Packing is so much easier!

    I’m down 75#. Biggest NSV is that packing for a trip is so much easier. My jeans take up a fraction of the space! For someone who packs carry-on only, this is a HUGE (or maybe small) deal. :). I was even able to pack tennis shoes to work out - I’d never have had room for that before!! Now I just have to resist the urge to fill my bag.

    SCARS from Incisions

    It's been less than a month for you, I think you need to give it some more time. Mine are starting to lighten now at just under 9 weeks post-op and I'm using something called Bio-Oil.

    hope I don't chicken out

    I just had the sleeve done 8 weeks ago and I'm 54 years old. It's never too late. And it's definitely a change of eating patterns and habits as you can only eat such a very small amount, about 2 oz at a time, but you eat about every 3 hours. I eat around 800 calories/day. Good luck with your decision.

    January 2019 sleevers

    I had really bad acid reflux for about 3 weeks post-op sleeve (12/11/18) but it has resolved. I also had a stall Weeks 3 and 4 but it has resolved.

    Are you prepared to pay for the surgery if it doesn't get approved? I waited until everything was in place and approved before scheduling surgery.

    Irritating and super frustrating. Good for you on holding the office to the after care plan. I felt like once the moneymaking was done - the surgery there was very little follow up despite the promises. Also I now wonder about my clinic statistics as I had 3 visits post op in 2015. Just where did they get six months 12 months three years data? Medicine in the USA remains for profit.

    Heartburn..Heartburn??

    Thanks for all the advice. I will try anything not to have this heartburn/GERD. I get it even if i don't eat. I eat very slowly abd don't over eat. I also don't eat past 7. I'm just praying this gets better.... Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

    I’m losing it

    My biggest issues with losing weight is trying to get back on track , I’m 10 months in and I’ve completely got off track. It’s driving me insane and it has made me super depressed!

    Heartburn..Heartburn??

    Had my sleeve done Jan,15,2019. Before then i never experienced heartburn like i do now..its horrible the burning in my stomach and throat. To the metal taste in my mouth, feeling like i want to vomit. The Dr. Had me on pepcid complete and tums.. but that didnt do anything. Now i was out on a script pantoprazole.. just wondering if anyone else is or has gone through this? Does it get better? Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app
