I'm pretty sure i have low blood sugar, have all the symptoms and haven't eaten much. I'm about 4 weeks out and on soft foods. Anyone else experience it, and if so any tips on what to eat?

How bad was yours? Any of you have before and after pictures you could share? Any tips on reducing loose skin on arms?

Well i went to the er since we don't have an all night clinic around. Doctor isn't completely ruling out a blood clot but doesn't think it is, he said it sounds like a nerve issue. Can't remember exactly the name of my diagnosis, but I'm supposed to check up with my doctor. And I'm going to keep praying its nothing to bad.

Three and a half weeks out, and just starting to feel better pain wise from surgery. Justttt my luckkk. Went to the ER on Wednesday morning, have kidney stones (atleast one) and a bladder infection. The doctor thinks it could be because i havent gotten in enough liquid since surgery. Soooo they sent me home with an antibiotic, pain meds, nasea meds and something to help pass the stone. I just woke up with an "attack" of pain in my pack. So im sitting here waiting for the pain med to kick in, and venting on here to try and keep my mind busy lol. Gahhh seriously effin hurts like heck. =/

The protein drinks? I know eventually ill be able to trade in shakes for protein bars. Was just curious as to others guidelines.

Hummus and pita chips. just throwing this out there. Only a few more weeks and this will be on my to eat list.

Any one know a good program to tone up your legs and butt. I want to start now so that hopefully by time my weight is gone my butt especially will be nice and toned.. maybe a c shape. haha. What have you ladies done to help with this? I've heard of the butt bible, i think i might try this.

My surgeon told us that sleeve patients don't get dumping. Only gastric bypass patients to, but sleeve patients can symptoms that closely mimic dumping.

Any one tried these? If so can you leave reviews?

Sleeved the 14 th and an down 8-9 pounds. 27 since pre op.

I'm only about two and a half weeks post op and i use a straw, not ask the time, but it causes no discomfort for me.

I have that ap. It's great!

To try.. wish me luck! If anyone has tried them, leave reviews please.

I was terrified. Everything went great though. Best of luck to you!!

Wooo thanks guys!! I've been having so much trouble with the powder, and these reviews give me hope. I'll be trying one in the morning.

How much protein were you told you had to get in?

I heard mine for a while, i always feel my drinks still and I'm two weeks out.

Applesauce, pudding, protein shake and water.

Any one try one post op? I am only two weeks out and don't plan to drink for a whillleeee, but that's my favorite drink and I'm curious as too if anyone has had them and how they settled.

I think because it flushes food through. I drink before and after meals.. usually wait like 15 minutes not 30. My doctor said its not add important for us sleevers to follow this rule as it is the gastric bypass patents.

Today i am two weeks out. And as of right now, no i wouldn't do it again. It's been a b***h. Maybe in a few weeks I'll change my mind.

Seems like every other time i have a "meal" my stomach hurts when i take a small bite or a few seconds after the bite. Tomorrow i will be two weeks out and can start pureed foods. So I'm on yogurt blended cottage cheese, Soup, Water.. you get it. Did it take anyone else a while before they stopped hurting during meals. I'm starting to think I'm never going to be able to eat without being in discomfort.
