This has been a great journey I know im not eating enough because most times I feel sick im trying to get more water in I was sleeved may 1st down from 314 now 281 so much more motivated at the gym it feels so good. My pants fit looser my stomach is smaller now I can't wait for another 33 pounds to be gone just need to find a way to get the protien in without the feeling sick all the time. I am going to get isopure since sweet protien shakes make me feel sick too. I am happy I did it

Is Keeping The Secret Possible?
I have also chosen not to tell. I am about 6 weeks out and have lost 30 pounds and starting at 315 30 pounds isn't noticeable my stomach and face are a little smaller. I post on facebook about me going to the gym and at work I say I really want to start a new me by lowering my calories everyday and working out. I drink a lot of water. My coworkers think im going cold turkey so I tell them this is something I refuse to fail on so I must work hard. That's exactly what I am doing. I chose to keep my wls to myself its something I did for myself. Just the people in my home know. So when people see you smaller give them all the tips about protien and vitamins, water and working out because that's exactly what we are doing.

Hospitalized For 24Hours 4Weeks Post Op
Hi everyone; well I have been posting about how I feel sick when I try to eat just like a nauseous feeling and couldn't figure out what it was. I went to the dr on friday and he wanted to admit me but I didn't want to go so I asked him to call something in for me. Saturday morning it was worse so after 7days of only drinking water and taking in maybe 100calories per day I went to the ER and he admitted me for dehydration. I wasn't happy because I wanted to be home but they did the fluids and meds and im now back home. Im supposed to be on a stage 5 diet but after trying im going to do a 3 or 4 for this week my body simply isn't ready. all in all im in good spirits and glad to be home. Everyone keep up with your water intake its so important

Still Nauseous
I have been going through this I feel sick battle for at least 2 weeks now. Im getting to a point where its upsetting me. There are days im forcing food down and sometimes I just don't want to eat anything just drink water. I feel like I have mucus in my stomach and don't know what to do. I have asthma so mucus has always been an issue but usually I will just drink seltzer water and im ok. Now I can't do that and im thinking maybe I should see my primary care for this im just so fustrated
