I have these cramps that come and go on my left side. I can't figure out what could be going on but it is very uncomfortable and seems like it is getting worse. My Dr. says he doen't know what it could be and will probably have me take some tests. I was sleeved 7 mo. ago and just started this last month. Has anyone experienced this?

something is going on under my left rib. Its not exactly pain but discomfort kind of like spasms or contractions/grinding. I have no idea what his could be and do not have any other symptoms except constipation. Does anyone have an idea what this could be. I see my doc march 19th

I just found out that my 4 visits to the mandatory nutritionist counciling is not coverd. Check your ins. for coverage. I am going to try an appeal

Can someone explain to me how to add photos

I came home from the hospital 20 lbs heavier and belive me that was depressing. Now I am 10 lbs down 16 days out.

I am just a week out but already missing my bread. When can we add in breads, crackers,bagels etc. I have read that a lot of people loose their tolerancce or need it toasted. I also would like to get some ideas on pizza recipes or kinda like pizza. How do most people do with tomatoe sauce

I have an appt with my doc on Thurs. I do have anxiety and have not been able to take my mends since the surgery. Thanks for the info I am on my way to ER if anything gets worse /k

Evert since my surgery I have a lot of trouble breathing. Shortness of breath, cant catch my breath etc. Its got me a little worried. I did get some oxygen in the hosp. but thought it was all rerated to going under. I do wear a mask at bed time and find I have trouble even with my mask.. See the doc in 2 days but still worried

i just got home and stepped on the scale to see a 15 lb weight gain how can this be?

Being sleeved tommorow and would like some help as to adding photos and the ticker tracker, Not great at using the computer so be specific as to the steps to take. I am an old computer dummy and mis my kids being around to show me what to do. Thanks

I am being sleeved tommorow and I am not afraid of the surgery but starting to fret over the loss of my social life. Most always friend get togethers are over food and alcohol or dinning out.. My husband and I are weekend social drinkers, we have a boat and drinks throughout the day have become a norm. Its a good thing that I am 53 for I see it would be more difficult as a young woman in her 20's in todays society. We like to travel and go to places that are all inclusive but it looks like that would be a waste of money. Please help me with some tips on how to drink and eat sleeved yet still be safe.. I know it will be several months before I will even begin to experiment but If youve had similar experiences I wold like to hear from you.

Thanks for the tips! I love cottage cheese so that will work for my lunch.

Everyone seems so organized as to food plans etc. I am a very unorganized person who eats most meals out and has a tough time preplanning meals. I'm sure that is why I have always been unsucessful with most diets. I am worried that I will have trouble planning and preparing meals as well as keeping on top of my vitamins. Anyone got some helpful tips

What is the connection with the gall blader and WLS. It seems like alot of people have it removed,

Thanks for all the good advise. I have done a lot of research on both the band and sleeve and was concerned about the poor results with the band. I am going to keep my surgery date for the sleeve and pray that all goes well. It sure helps to have some support out there.
