Added all of you!!

Hey everyone I'm 6 months post op and lately I've been getting really dizzy every time I stand up. Has anyone ever had this happen before or know what could be going on?

Before I had my vsg I had 2 abdominal hernias repaired with mesh now that I've lost close to 100 pounds I've been feeling a pinching feeling where the mesh should be. Do you guys think it would be possible for the mesh to move or twist because of the weight loss this never happened before the surgery.

yeah you just have to do it on their website instead of your phone

Im in your same boat' date=' sleeved on Oct. 15th and barely eat anything but feel fine. Dr. said it was ok and hydration and Vitamins were important. So far 95lbs down....[/quote']

Oh wow awesome job you were sleeved 5 days after me!

I am a little over 3 months out and that is about all that I can eat.. maybe even less if its dense Protein like chicken. My Nut has me eating 6 times a day.. 3 regular meals and 3 small Snacks otherwise I was only about to get in about 3-400 calories.

im going to try adding in a couple smaller meals throughout the day i definitely think that will help eating just seems like such a pain right now!

thanks everyone that makes me feel alot better!!!

Hi everyone I just had a quick question, im 11 weeks out from surgery and am lucky if i can eat 1/4 of a cup of food at a time im doing amazing with weight loss and everything but with only being able to eat such a small amount its pretty much impossible to get as much Protein as my surgeon would like soo my question is how much were all of you able to eat at like 2 or 3 months out, is a quarter of a cup not enough or am i normal and just worrying too much lol

Hill I'm thrilled with the numbers on the scale and how my size 18 jeans are now fitting (down from a size 22/24)! But meals are hard for me still! Proteins like chicken and fish don't sit well still. Tiny bites. Chew' date=' chew,chew abd still after about 2 oz. I'm uncomfortable. I still drink a shake every day and I try to eat slowly-painfully slow! Still, I ferl like it's stuck. I know I'm not supposed to drink anything for an hour but Ifeel like a sip of Water helps the food go down. I told my nut and she said just to take it slow and make sure I get my Protein in. Just wondering how everyone else is faring.[/quote']

I'm the exact same way I've been doing thinly sliced lunch meats and cheeses they seem to go down a little easier but the stuck feelings almost always there

Im 2 months out of surgery and keep getting this annoying feeling like there's something stuck like at the bottom of my throat but I can talk and breathe perfectly fine so I know there's nothing there does anyone know what this is all about?

i had surgery october 10th and the reflux has been horrible i take zantac otc in the morning and sometimes around dinner and then tums or pepto bismol when it gets really bad, ice Water seems to help alot too...hope you feel better soon!

How many grams of sugar / carbs do you eat per day?

Ok! So I just left and couldn't wait to write u guys! He said that it gets better and over time will go away!!! Time veries!

That's awesome news thanks!!!

I'm going to talk to my surgeon today and ill let u know what he says!!!!!

Yeah definitely let us know thanks!

Thank you guys so much I thought something was seriously wrong lol!

I guys I'm 3 weeks out and still have a dent in my stomach where my big incision was did anyone else have anything like this and if so when did it go away the incision is healed fine.

So just out of curiosity once you're completely healed and a few months or years out of surgery how much can you eat at a time I've heard so many different things from a half a cup to 2 cups I don't want to go back to my old habits but it would be nice to know that I won't only be eating a half a cup of food for the rest of my life...

My husband as well and has the nerves to ask me if I want some.

Me too!!! Ugh I wanted to smack him!!! ;(

Congrats on the new baby and how did you do with the weight loss I also have pcos and am so scared that I won't be able to lose very much (I'm only 10 days out)

Thanks I'm definitely going to try that!

Omg you have amazing will power having a birthday party while you're still on liquids!!!

I'm the same way with the commercials omg they're terrible LOL

This one says 400 calories but only 3grams of sugar and 51 grams of Protein which is REALLY good!

I'm feeling the same way except my cravings are for meat I'm on puréed foods for the next 2 weeks and I'm dieing for normal foods my husband made barbecue wings and I really thought I was going to tackle him and steal the plate LOL its really driving me crazy :/

Hi everyone! I had surgery the 10th and everything's going really well I'm on zofran for nausea but all of a sudden I have horrible heartburn it's the weekend and I can't get ahold of the dr and don't want to go to the hospital because it's not an emergency but does anyone know of anything over the counter that I can go get
