9 days out have MAJOR concerns. HELP!!!!!!!!
I was the same way. I think I even posted about it. I was scared I was able to take in too much while still wanting more. Same with mushies. But now i'm on more solids food and i'm getting fuller. Protect your tummy. Keep doing what you're doing. And everything will get better. I still feel like I can eat a lot but I am losing so it's ok.

5 weeks out -22 lbs. But ugh...
Hi all. I'm 22 lbs down which is a great thing. But i'm so tired of not feeling good. I don't feel good all the time. I'm tired, sluggish, and lazy. I get stomach aches. I get a tight feeling in my chest all the time. I have heartburn all the time. I know I should be grateful but I just miss the old way of eating you know when you actually enjoyed it. Sorry just venting. Everyone else seems to love there sleeve at 5 weeks. I just kinda like it a little at this point.

5 weeks out stomach pains
I don't think it's lactose intolerance. I've been drinking milk every now and then for heartburn and feel ok afterwards. Maybe just a tummy ache. Thanks. I'll keep you up to date.

5 weeks out stomach pains
Hello everyone, so today I woke up with the worse stomach ache. I have no fever. Just a stomach ache. It feels like really bad cramps. I think I have the mirena iud so I haven't had cramps in years. Anyone else experience this? I'm starting to get worried maybe i've done damage to my new tummy. Earlier I laid in a bath and that helped while I was in there but not now that i'm out... It's the next day the pain is gone but I feel so nauseous. I think I might go to the er soon. See if they'll do a leak test. Anybody experience these things at 5 weeks out.
