100%Sleeved

Congratulations Lissa! Should have called me. I would have helped you and we could have danced together lol. I'm a Florida Realtor.

Try drinking some g2 gatorade it helps with the dehydration.

I'm always amazed when I see these posts about tastes because for me, I have never lost my taste. As a matter of fact, everything tastes better. Hang in there I'm sure this will get better in time.

Yes my throat was verry sore and I had trouble swallowing for about 5 days because I woke up with a ng tube. I had to keep the tube in for 2 days. I hated it. I'm fine now and you will be too.

Yes and it worked. I now take protonix daily.

I totally understand how you feel. I got sleeved the week before Thanksgiving and of course mama through down of the meal. I was dreaming about her dressing. I sat there and watched everyone eat. I was so sad. My 1st week out I was having pains that I thought was hunger pains and it was actually gas.I started to regret my decision but that only lasted 10 minutes. After starting ppi I don't have gas anymore. I'm down 30 lbs and I don't miss food now that I'm losing. I think a lot of us go through this phase. Hang in there it gets better.

After my surgery I spent 4 nights in the hospital and on days 1,2 and 3 I was not able to burp. They gave me mom and on the 4th day I was burping from both ends.

I'm taking centrum chewables which you can get at walmart and vitafusion calciums which I look forward to taking because they are sooo good.

Congratulations! You look great!

& I'm sorry to hear you were attacked.

G2 Gatorade is good to drink to prevent dehydration.

That's great news! Keep up the good work!

I I'm 4 weeks out and I'm having soreness around my incisions when I bend down. I saw my doc yesterday and he said that was part of healing. Prior to that I was pain free. Please ask your doc to be sure.

I'm sure happy to see you are feeling better. Visiting Nurse? Wow I didn't get that special treatment. That alone is encouraging. Hang in there it will get better. Have a great weekend.

Congrats!

The only exercise i got was lifting right hand to mouth. too funny

Awe thanks you are too kind. BTW Congratulations on all of your weightloss success! I love reading your positive posts. Please feel free to drop by and give me some trade secrets on how to be successful like you. I'm just starting out and need all the help I can get.

Happy Friday and thanks for the post. I feel really good. I just did my 30 minute powerwalk and logged it in to livestrong. Thanks for giving us that free website the other day. I love the way it works. Enjoy your day and take care.

I went to my 4 week post op appt and my Dr told me I can go straight to solids but to only eat meats and leafy veggies and if I get hungry betweens meals then eat a cucumber or a dill pickle WTHeck? I haven't eaten a dill pickle since I was pregnant with my last child 9 years ago. After the initial shock I pulled my big girl panties up and headed right on over to the grocery store and bought a big jar of pickles lol. If it helps me lose the weight I want, then why not. Has anyone else been told to snack on dill pickles?

Thanks for the comments. It was my 1st NSV and I felt excited and embarrased at the same time.

Yeah I think they were checking out my style lol

If you family is behind you then that's all the support you need. I admit I was afraid to have the surgery here in the US for all the reason you stated. You have to do what's right for you and your daughter. I pray you are very successful and prove her wrong. I wish you the best in your weight loss journey. God Bless You.

So I just decided to walk 2 miles. I'm in Florida and the weather is beautiful! As I'm walking my pants are falling down. So I reached for the drawstring in the front and WTHeck? no drawstring. So I felt around the back and realized I had my pants on backwards. No wonder the landscaping guys were looking at me funny huh. Well I see it as a NSV. What do you think?

I started solids today and was able to ean an egg and cheese omlet with 2 eggs and some baby spring mix leaves. I got full after the eggs but only was able to eat a small amount of the spring mix.

I only saw mine once. The nut could have cared less and check this out, he needed the surgery wayyyyy more than me lol.
