  1. This morning I wanted to throw the scale at something or someone. I can't imagine how I could gain 2.5 lbs not eating more that 550 call a day. This is so discouraging! I am at yet another emotional low in this process. List 25 before surgery on 5/22, lost 10 lbs the week after surgery and now going into my 3rd week, no weight loss, but a gain. I also have a new pain in my lower left stomach this morning. I still have no energy.


  2. I had the lap band since 2009, I stared out losing weight great, then life happened, I was depressed and started gaining weight. I could never tolerant having the band inflated anymore as I would only vomit. So on May 22nd, 2015 I had my lap band out and switched to a sleeve. I did great right after surgery until last weekend. I can not drink anything. I went today for a IV due to being so dehydrated. I am sick to my stomach all day and night, have the worst heartburn and I'm just miserable!!! I am on reglan, zophran and pepsid for the nausea and heartburn, but it does not help!!! I'm starting to regret my decision, although I do not miss the lap band. Has anyone had these symptoms and are they going to be forever? Please if anyone has any advise please share.
