Hello Everyone was sleeved July 16th down 22lbs the scale seems to go up and Down a pound this last week ...

Congratulations on 1 month! I am 1 month today as well an was about to post something similar. Saw your post and figure Ill celebrate with you !!! I've lost 22 lbs so far and also I am ok with loosing slowly, I feel I will have a better chance at working out and tightening things up! Good luck and Best Wishes

My surgeon told me that smoking and even being around people who do it while healing can cause ulcers

Good Morning! So the pepto did not help at all fever is down though ... Ended up contacting the doctor again and he gave me some prescriptions I am now taking nexium and carafate both are the stomach one for acid reflux and one for ulcer prevention. I found out that even though I don't smoke I cannot be around people who do either . The smoke can make me prone to an ulcer ... I had no Idea ... Now that I know I'm staying far away ! On my way to recovery

Hey guys, Doctor finally got back too me 2 hrs later but fever is down .... Thank God told me to take some Tylenol , pepto, plenty of fluids including power aid light or clear I can't remember exactly to get electro lights up... Possibly will have to go back on clear liquids

Thank you all for that advise ... I called my Doctor got his answering service ... Waiting for him to call me back hopefully soon or I'm calling back

I am 4 weeks post op, and all of a sudden my stomach is so upset , chest and throat burning and running a small fever ... I got sent home from work This past saturday because I was constantly gaging and nauseas I'm not sure if I should call my Doc

So true ...

Amanda , it's so true what your saying about eating now being a constant thought... I find myself thinking about it a lot.. Joia thanks a lot that helped ease my worry ... I was starting to think something was wrong with me...

This may sound weird or it may be normal I'm feel like I am hungry more often ... Not sure if that's a good or bad thing I don't want to over eat. I'm going into my 4th week post op has anyone else experienced this ?

Hello Everyone ! I was sleeved July 16, 2013 my weight the day of surgery was 288lb I am now 265lb. My sleeve has been good to me no pain unless I eat too fast No nausea I'm hoping it stays this way Best of luck to all of You

Thank you

It's been 3 weeks now since my surgery, I'm off the clear liquid stage (thank God!) but my next stage isn't too exciting ... I'm allowed to eat eggs low fat yogurt, cottage cheese, and vegetables. Unfortunately I don't like cottage cheese ;( I tried but just didn't like it. My favorite vegetable spinach I tried scrambled with eggs And my stomach didn't like it so much. I'm starting to really get tired of eggs next week I can eat fish happy about that. The greatest news is I am down 18lbs!! Woohoo

Friutvale Station ...

Thank you! It was really hard to resist that popcorn smell is everywhere in the theater ... I had no idea the role food had played in my life..

I am now 10 days post op and my family decided to take me to see a movie, to get me out of the house. I went to the movie prepared (still on all liquids) I had to sneak in some chicken broth, and water, couple other things. But when I smelled that popcorn omg!!! it was like I felt I wasn't having the full movie experience without it. It's crazy ... The movie was good though ....

Congrats ????

Before I left the hospital they stressed to me the importance of walking and staying hydrated. Walking in side doesn't seem like I'm doing enough.
