HELP PLEASE. :thumbup1:

Hi, I had the sleeve on Jan 20th and I still do not get all I need to drink in. I am taking in about 30 to 40 oz max. I try to get in 8 OZ of protein a day. I eat no pasta or rice, Bread .I take a few bites and fill up too fast because it expands and it makes me very sick. I can drink tea but not too sweet I mix 1/2 and 1/2 if I drink tea at all. I have not drank any soda as well.

You will love him he is the best.. Please keep in touch and let me know how you are doing. You are in great hands with Dr. Webb.

Thank you both so much for all the help and answers. I will check out the Cornell Guide as well. I did ask my Doctor about the drinking and the food intake, His reply is try everyday to get more in, I understand that but just feel like I am not getting enough Liquid a day. I am still real drained. BUT I am getting all the protein in everyday.

Hi, My name is Cindy Vogel, I had my sleeve on 1/20/10 in Jacksonville, Fl By Dr. Steven Webb, out of Memorial Hospital. I have lost right at 40 lbs. My starting weight the day of surgery was 240 and today I am at 190 WOW.. I have so many questions and could not beleive it when I came accross this web site. If anyone could help it would be wonderful. 1) Heartburn how long does it last and how do you get it in control? 2) I can only get in about 30 oz of Liquid in a day is this normal and how do you get more in on top of the food? 3) I can only eat about 3 oz at any given time. But Rice, Pasta Bread are a NO for me I get so Sick and now cream soups and any Sugar get me real sick. Why is this happening and is it normal to be getting so sick all the time? I do not want to eat or drink for fear of getting sick.
