Hi everyone! I'm 5' 0"! Was sleeved 5/7, all together, i've lost 39 pounds! I feel great, and have alot more energy now that I switched off of the synthetic Centrum vitamins!

It's ok..just a little humor! So sorry if you were offended..

It could be gas pain. Maybe try the gas-x. I'm 42, surgery was May 7. I really didnt have any complications. Didnt have a drain, so I'm not sure how that feels. I can tell you, yes it does get better...just seems like it takes forever!! ugh! You do have to walk, but you also need to rest. Do what your body tells you!! Hope you are feeling better soon!!

Lol!! You can have a side of a cardiologist with the pork rinds!!!!! I'm almost 8 weeks out, and I get my salt/crunch fix with Claussen pickles...yum!!

You are all doing very well!!! I'm 5', surg dat 5/7. Highest weight was 178. It's been 7 weeks and i'm down 37 POUNDS!!!! WHOOP!!

Yea, i'm a little upset that my butt is going down WAY faster than my belly....ugh!!!!

It sounds like you really were not very informed at all on your surgery....WOW!!

I know it's the opposite end of the body, but I had breast cancer, and wanted a double mastectomy before VSSG, and the surgeon told me it was best to wait, to go back and see him 6 months after....and oh boy i have pancak boobies!! lol (not for long)!!!!

My grand father had barretts....becareful. Do ALOT of research on both. I would even talk to an oncologist, anybody I could get my hands on! Educate yourself. I myself had 3 diffferent cancers, and i'm 42. I dont want to scare you. Yes it's serious. Get your blood PH checked, and if it's off, start to alkalize your blood before you get too ill! Look into juicing, and getting healthy before any surgery. Start now by cutting out all processed foods, and sugar.

Thank you!! And good luck to you also!!!

you look very healthy!!!

I was JUST going to post the same thing until I saw your post!!! I am just 7 weeks out, and my energy is sooooo bad, and my muscle tone is like jelly!! I am an EMT full time, came back 2 weeks ago, and I am afraid I am going to drop some one!! I just got finished washing my ambulance, and it took EVERY OUNCE of energy I had in me to do it! I hope we dont get a call, because i am shot right now....(I dont have to labs for a few weeks from now). My husband thinks im crazy, because I have always been strong. I've been doing this job for 13 years. I'm at the point where, i'm either going to have to quit, or I am going to be fired...

you can google it..

How on earth are you getting down 4 bottles of water???? Lucky you! I will be 7 weeks out tomorrow, and can barely finish 1 bottle.....
