  1. I was just wondering if anyone asked or was told how much the removed portion of their stomach weighed after being sleeved? I asked but did not get a straight answer. I'm sure they weigh it before they toss it or donate it.
  2. I'm on clear fluids for 2 weeks. Until the13 th I guess I have been drinking Isopure to get my Protein in. Sitting at about 40 grams a day. I have no pain at all and have been able to sleep in any position. I'm slowly increasing my exercise just on the treadmill for now. No bending or weights for a few more weeks. I feel pretty good considering!
  3. Sounds like you are going through a rough time. Hope things work out for you. They usually give you a blood test at the hospital to screen for pregnancy or at least they do at mine. Maybe you are getting your period early? The surgery can mess with people's cycle. If you are still throwing up go see your doctor. You don't want to get dehydrated! Hugs!!
  4. I replace the mayo itch plain Greek yogurt
  5. I feel like I can eat a lot quickly too. I am 4 days post and I can eat a jello cup nius a bite in 5 minutes or less.
  6. I went at 7:45 on the 30th. How are you feeling?
  7. There is such a thing as too big depending on the surgeon. It might be a little trickier finding a surgeon at her BMI but I have seen it on here so I know it is possible.good luck to both of you!
  8. I didn't tell my kids anything other then I went away for a few days. I am post op 2 days. If I need to I will tell them I have a sore tummy but not go into too much detail. I'm not telling them I had surgery, my daughters 5 and I think that would just scare her. It's too much for some kids to understand at that age.
  9. That is so great! Good job

  11. The only person who knows is my husband because he has to watch the kids while I'm in the hospital. Didn't tell my mother or my father or my best friends
