  1. Was sleeved may 29th and have lost 48 lbs so far... I know about the break... But I can't get passed 215!!! I hit 215.8, then .4, then .0, then back to .8. I'm frustrated. Is this normal for me to gain ounces? Help!
  2. Thanks for your help
  3. Hi all! This is so random and I will ask my doctor but for now I'm sure you guys know the answer to this question. Is getting a leak a risk only immediately after surgery. Or can leaks happen anytime for the rest of your life? I was sleeved on may 29... I'm down 36 lbs. I had no leaks even though I was a very complicated case. My dr told me that for sure I'd have a leak and prepared me. However he took his time and did a great job and I had no leaks nor complications. But can leaks still occur in me? Any feedback would help. Thanks.
  4. I'm already on Prevacid. I'm not thirsty. Just hungry.
  5. Guys I work in Fontana and would live buddies. Can I join?
  6. IM so depressed. I am always hungry. I'm nearily three weeks post op and feel like I'm always eating or wanting food. Am I alone??
  7. I'm so glad that we have such a big group in ca!!!! I was sleeved in Glendale on may 29. I'm 23 lbs down in almost three weeks!! If anyone in ca needs anything, please feel free to ask!!!
  8. How are you doing now Lisa??
  9. Yay I'm not alone!!!! Goodluck to all the sleevers!!! My prayers are with you. To all of us on the post op side... Lets keep up the good work.
  10. Im in gledale. Wondering if there are locals here
  11. What is mfp??
  12. Read on here that someone's mom was against the sleeve because she couldn't have kids. Is this true?? I've never heard such a thing. Please help. I just had the surgery done and I have no kids. And this would break my heart.
  13. I got it. It's so normal
  14. I'm sorry to hear about what you are going thru! I had a horrible experience before as well...I have had the band in and out 3 times... Your time will come... maybe this is better... i wanted to be sleeved and have the last band removed at the same time as well... but the doctor told me that if he did that, my chances of a leak were very high because of all the damage i have inside of me!!! I just want you to know that id rather wait than to suffer a leak. i read someone's experience of a leak on here, and cried for them. I'm glad our surgeons are making smart decisions rather than wrong ones just to make money and be done with it. Ill keep you in my prayers... Goodluck!
