  12. I was sleeved 5/17 now that I can eat soft foods in the morning I will have one egg scrambled with cheese for lunch about 3oz of tuna shredded with ff mayo and I'm not very hungry at dinner so I just do a protein shake. I just have to get better at drinking more...I'm only getting about 30 oz dr says try for 64.
  13. Maybe I worded that wrong..I know I have to eat...and I do I'm just scared the weightloss will stop. Thank u all for ur advice
  14. Is this a common thing?I'm scared once I eat my lbs will stop coming off?
  15. Hello all..Doc said it as normal its frm the stitches inside.He said the pressure from when they removed my stomach from the incision near my belly button. Glad to hear he said its normal

  22. I had to buy the food and protein from my drs office but only 2 weeks pre op.It cost me $175 includng one bottle of multivitamins.
  23. Hyoscyamine tabs u put under tongue. For gi spasms and cramping. If u have nausea or vomiting zofran tabs worked for me. I never threw up but was a lil sick to my tummy and that took it away. For at home pain relief they gave me liquid lortab..I never needed it though,it taste yukky lol. Good luck!!!
  24. I walked every 4...when gas hit I walked more
