LESLIEH

haaa haaa, Glad I started this topic instead of thinking I was a freak and my stomach was just pissed off at me. Yea I'm thinking of naming my sleeve too, but need to think of a strong name. I don't do anything for it and its worse if I drink say water and then lay down, she yells at me. I take my aciphex (a heartburn med) first thing in the morning and it's time released so it lasts all day. I have a friend who had the bypass and she said whenever her food is being digested is when her stomach goes nuts.

Oh I had it as well and it actually just stopped 1 month out. But when you see your Dr tell him about it. Hubby kept telling me it's because all were putting into our bodies is liquid so it made sense to me. But on my one month appt I told the Dr only because it was really starting to get annoying and on here all you here about is constipation. The Dr told me I was impacted and to start taking a laxative, wow what a difference. I'm normal once again. So just ask your Dr. when you see him.

IE- I always have a list weverytime I see my dr and its kinda funny because after he walks in I bombard him with my list and mark one question off at a time and then write my notes, he prolly thinks he's giving a class. Tiff - I had bad bad bad acid reflux before surgery, I was on 2 different types of meds and I've continued to take one of them seeing its more powerful then Prilosec. I'm seriously thinking its my stomach trying to adjust to the small amounts of food and shes prolly yelling at me and pissed off, hee hee. It was actually quite funny the other morning, hubby n I were snuggling in bed abd my stomach started guggling and talking and then his started, hee hee they were communicating.

Haa Haa, thats mine too. I'll be right next to my hubby and its gurgling, talking, making noises or whatever its doing. Let me tell you sumtimes it does get a bit loud and then the hubby thinks Im gonna burp or whatever, I'm like umm no honey its just my tummy saying it's completely happy now. So I guess it is the sleeve just processing stuff and what not.

I don't know if this is normal or not or just maybe in my head. I constantly have to remind myself to eat and if I don't I get massive headaches. But after I eat give or take about an hour my stomach growls, like I'm hungery. Why is that?? I thought we no longer have hunger "attacks". Could it be my food digesting? Seriously after I eat about 2 oz's I'm extremely full and theres no way I could be hungery again.

Ya, my Dr said no way on nyquil or dayquil, but I didn't listen. I still took it and Im still living, hee hee. I seriously think my Dr is really really strict seeing he said I could only take tylenol cold and thats been pulled off the shelf.

Funny you say that Pam, he said the same thing, hee hee. He's even chopping up chicken really fine so I can eat dinner with the family. I'm sooo spoiled by him. I figured oatmeal should be fine because it's a "soft" food, shh I had a lil already. I've noticed now Im trying different foods I'm getting full really fast

Ok thx Tiff, thats what we were figuring it was the skin and the lady I talked to atthe dr's office who by the way was robably the receptionist stated the reasoning behind it was they are high in suger, huh???? Both my husband and I looked at each other dumb founded. Oranges have high suger too and thats not a no no so she gave me my surgeons nurse's phone number to ask her all my questions because Im craving oatmeal too and thats not on my list. They need to make these lists a lil more in depth. Thanks for the pickle update because I love pickles to where my mouth waters when I see the big ones atthe store and now I know not to have those for awhile. That would so ruin it if I burped them up,

That's great, congrats!!!!

Ok I'm going to call the Dr's office today to find out whats up with the grapes restriction

Nope not with my surgeon, its in big bold letters on my food list, NO GRAPES.... Hubby and I can't figure out why, I love grapes the seedless ones but dang it I should of asked him why not but I had millions of other questions and totally forgot bout that one.

I had my one month check up today and I recieved my new list of foods, it's like christmas to me when I get these lists. hee hee... On the list he said I can have fruit but in big bold letter it states NO GRAPES!!!! I didn't get a chance to ask the Doc because of my list of questions. Whats the reason behind no grapes?

yaaaayyyyy, congrats. Thats gotta be the best feeling out there.

Jackson, sorry but you had me on the floor with that comment and I had to show my hubby which almost choked on his lunch. haa haa.... But thats how I feel about Fredericks too their not at all like all pink and prissy like VS and thats what I loved bout Fredericks, their like the daring type

:DOMG, I so feel ya Tiff... I used to only shop at Frederick's and I'm so in love with their bras but actually I'm kind of scared to even go and see my new size. VS never had bras that fit me and I always thought that store was for skinny prissy chicks which I am not, hee hee. I'm loving my kohl's bras my hubby bought me but yes their getting baggy. Guess all we can say is there is a must for implants after the sleeve, in which I'm ok with

I had my surgery Nov 9th and I just cant wait to have my salads back and some kind of substance like turkey or meat. Tomorrow is my one month and Im keeping everything crossed to be able to move on up in the food stages:D

I must agree Tiff, she just irritates the hell outta me and when I was shopping for my protein even my usband was like what the hell is this. I told him don't even think about it Im not buying that crap. If we all had her kind of money and no "real" job then hell we would be fit just like her. But like me I dispatch for the state 12 hrs a day and have 6 kids, when am I gonna be able to work out 8 hrs a day or better yet find time to go to the gym...

Oh my I have the same problem and I was just sleeved on Nov 9th. My aunts first words to me last weekend was wow u lost ur boobs already. I was a 42dd and now ummm ya Im so not there now and the hubby says he still luvs them and so on. Maybe the insurance should also include a tummy tuck and a boob job after all the weight is lost, wishful thinking I'm sure. But yes I will be getting my boobs done and a tummy tuck in about a year or so, Its a must seeing my girls have left the building

Yaaaayyyy, congrats are in order..... I luv my sleeve and to think I almost had the lapband haaaaaa

Humm gotta bring this one up to my surgeon too, I didn't have a leak test unless it was done while I was knocked out.

yayy congrats...Your surgery date will be here in no time and I think everyone gets a lil nervous and excited all in one

:)I'm also 3 weeks post op and I was losing so much weight before and now I've really slowed down. I've read alot of people just have stalls, it just depends on your body. So don't get discouraged

I was the same way, I wanted to die after surgery and kept telling my husband this is the biggest mistake I have ever made. But by week 3 I'm getting the hang of it and things are really progressing. I guess people actually forget to tell you the hell part they first went thru when they got it done.

Yayyy congrats and yes everyday gets better and better

Ugh dang phone posted my comment twice. But Sophia to start exercising use resistance bands, they work great and you can use the anywhere, outside in the house. I luv mine and they work the crap outta my arms when I tighten the band, I feel the burn, lol...
