Who else is invited to Kaiser Richmond Bariatrics Dept. on February 11th? I hear its a costume party.

I'm only a month out, so I haven't had hair fall out yet. But when it does happen I'm hoping it all comes from my back.

Hi Hi Lisa Lisa, To get sleeved, I was in the hospital for 2 nights & 3 days. I felt weak, very nauseous, and slept the whole time I was there. My surgeon almost made me stay another day because I developed a fever during the 2nd night. On the third day I was almost feeling completely normal. I had no nausea, a little stomach pain, and slight incision tenderness. After two days at home I stopped taking the liquid pain medication. I went back to work 1 week after surgery. Because I was feeling so great- and because I'm just a dumb guy, I decided to break the liquid diet. I experimented 3 times. I once tried scrambled eggs. I once tried a bite of toast. I once tried a small piece of chicken from a friend's lunch. Needless to say I threw-up 3 times. Today I start stage 3 foods. Do you know where I can get a food processor that will acommodate a large King Arthur Supreme from Round Table? I am happy that I got sleeved and have no regrets. Talk to you soon, Don

I'd like to be your friend, Chrissy!

That's so funny.... I did ask my doctor that question. He said absolutely no stomach souvenirs, stomach key chains, or stomach snow globes. After surgery the stomach goes to pathology. I even asked him how does my big football stomach fit through the tiny incisions.
