It's nice to read everyone is doing good. Okay I'm getting frustrated here. Ladies I must be the slowest loser ever. I'm a little over 3 weeks out and lost 15 lbs. Then I gained one lbs and lost it... So confusing.. ugh!

Yes I get them too. Ugh accompanied by burping.

My dr. Doesn't require a liquid diet before surgery. While at the hospital I was on liquid diet for 1 day then on full liquids meaning pureed stage for 2 weeks then soft foods for 6_8 weeks.

Newgrandmother Isn't it weird how everyday its a new leaning experience with food? I tried peanut butter the other day and did nit like the taste it left in my mouth and I used to love peanut butter.

I finally hit 159 but I am losin sooooo slow. It's okay I know it's coming off.

Omg these past couple of days afteri have dinner I start burping a lot and for a lo.g time. I can feel the air bubbles start building up and traveling to the pit of my stomach and my stomach gets loud. Has anyone one experience this? How I avoid this? This only happens.in the evening.

At the beginning I would get a runny nose when I was full. What I fund strange is that I dint start the burping till way after I'm done eating. And only happens when I have dinner.

Oh goodness I just posted the samething on another thread. I usually get thAT at night only. But yes I feel that the air gets trapped and then about 20 min. I start burping but oh boy I burp for what seems a long time. I hope this is over soon.

I was sleeved on 9/13/12 and I usually start burping about 20 minutes after I eat.

OMG! I feel like a pig. Everything I eat especially dinner I have to burp but its not a burp and then it's over oh no I keep burping and it gets louder and louder its embarrassing. Has anyone else experience this before? What am I doing wrong? I've also had a dull ache in my tummy. Wonder what that's from.

I've been feeling those bubbles traveling up my throat also. Sign I'm full.

So I've been having trouble getting all my vitamins in. I'm 2.5 weeks out. This morning I decided to add the vitamins to my protein shake. I threw everything in the blender and drank the protein. I am wondering if this is okay? Am I still getting the value of all the vitamins?

I wish I could have oatmeal or even cream of wheat but nut said no to them.. I know the question wasn't for me.. but Quaker has one that is for weight loss wonder what's different about that one..sometime.in the low carb section they have a special oatmeal never really looked at the carb count in that.

I went thru the same thing. Love it after surgery.

Omg! I just asked.this on a new thread... I was sleeved on 9/13/12 and today when I was eating a peach my back started hurting.and felt pressure on my chest very uncomfortable. So I stooped eating and then had to run to the bathroom and tree up nothing but foamy saliva. Gross. Then my back was still hurting and felt like I had to burp for what seemed to be an hour maybe less. Awful feeling and painful.

So I've noticed that sometime when I eat my back starts to hurt then I start feeling pressure on my chest. It's happened quiet a few times. I dont know if it's cause I'm eating to fast and that is what's causing the pain and uncomfortable feeling. I was sleeved on 9/13/12 Also today I ate a peach with out the skin, nut said I could have it... So I was eating it then I got that pain again with a lot of pressure on my chest then I felt like I had to throw up, ran to the bathroom and it was just foamy stuff.. what was that? Should I be worried,call the surgeon, or is this normal? Thanks

Omg! I've heard about the sliming just didn't think that was it. Thanks. I'm going to research. But yes I kind of knew.I was.eating a.bit to fast. Thanks.

Oh I hope not. I'll call them in the morning thank you.

Oh I hope not. I'll call them in the morning thank you.

I have lost 15 lbs since surgery and a lot of people.have complementing me on how I look. I think my face doesn't look swollen anymore.

My dr. Said that adding fiber to your water will help.. I think he said benefiber is good.

17 lbs is great. I stalled the first week after surgery. But then I started losing slowly but surely.

I took a week off and was fine. I agree you should plan on taking more time off just in case you don't feel with energy to go in.

Ugh feeling so gross today. Woke up fine took my nexium and waited for about an hour and tried a chewable multi vitamin and threw up. Ewww guess I should've waited till after I ate something. Now I feel shakey. I'm going to check my blood sugar to see what's up. Hope you are doing.good this Sunday.
