you can still eat what you want just not as much and you can drink when you eat you just won't feel as full as long.

Drink lots of Water and keep your eye on the ball and you will make it.

There are other reasons they give you pain meds.

Through the scale away and enjoy the ride. Did you ever gain that much in that many days?

CALL YOUR DOC.

I would be more concerned that you do not know what your doc requires and only getting info from internet sites. CALL "YOUR" DOC.

Either way it can be cotributed to lack of oxygen and use of the brain. I will make smart asss coments to anyone weather they know me or not. It has changed since I lost weight I am not as intimidating as I use to be now I have to use my brain instead of size.

I think alot of the people on here had their brain in the part of the stomach that was removed.

Save the hair and make a wig. The damage is done need more protien in first weeks after surgery some have said more protine now helps.

I have not done the booze thing yet but lots of painpills make weight lose more fun.

heat will increase the swelling walking will do most for gas pain.

Packets of tuna

Through the scale away just weigh at the dc or once a week and drink more Water. Relax and enjoy the ride.

Do not beat your self up for small food things to learn to eat "normal" you need to learn how to eat some of anything and be alright with that. Beating your self up will leads to many problems. At 8 mths out I give myself some treats for good days and have learnd to be happy with the eating and that helps with control. Learn to have fun and not worry about food and enjoy life.

Your drive will be way more fun on pain meds.

It can stretch and it will stretch if abused over time by overeating.

That is why sucess rate is 50 to 60 % excess lost in the long run. You need to love the honeymoon first 6 months and then the work begins.

wow and you wonder who you got where your at

If you want to cheat you do not need our support. Try some booze that should take the edge off. WHy listen to the doc what does he know?

I had one pshy app. and it worked for me now only nine of the ten voices in my head say eat the cookie.

Get over the thought that food needs to be enjoyed take it like pills something you have to do weather you want to or not. You're adult enough to have surgery than be adult enough to do what you need.

I do not know I was asleep.

medical pot is the real answer.

I am an engineer and we have a saying "You can't Engineer for stupid"

The other problem is some people will never be happy and need someone or something to blame for their own mistakes. Depression is a known side effect and some people do not know when to get help and just want to complain. This surgery imo should only be used as a last resort.

I also regret that I can not use my handi-cap permit anymore because I look to healthy.

I also regret that I have no excuse to have a large vehical because I now fit in small car that gets good gas milage.

I regret that I do not watch as much TV

without wls still fat and happy.

I think anyone brave enough to leave there comfort zone(home) and travel to have surgery in MX would have done as much research as the rest of us. I only had to drive across town and I thought I was crazy for doing this.
