Hey everyone sorry it's bin awhile since iv bin on, my surgery was sept 23/2010 nd I went in at 200 and now I'm 175 I feel great people have been starting to notice nd so have I, I can't eat much but I don't care I love it u really realize how much u ate before surgery. I don't know if anyone can relate to this but I often get this feeling in my throat maybe I little more further down it's hard to describe it's fizzy achy burning feeling feels as if you can throw up when u get that feeling my mouth sometimes even gets watery when that feeling comes, when it does I breath and it goes away but I wanna know what it is. I hole iv list what's recommended at 2 months and week out, I'm excited to loose more seems like the weight loosing is in spouts it will quit then come off again stop then start loading again etc. Anyway hope everyone Is doing good

dont worry you will be fine im on week 3 and i starting eating thing like applesauce after a week and now i sometimes eat a couple chips and i feel fine, dont worry you wont die

Don't worry I'm 2 weeks today and I'm having the same problem the scale hasn't moved much at all at first it did but now it's staying the same, I even got my first period since surgery maybe that's why it hasn't moved!!!!! I'm gonna go take a walk on the treadmill and hopefully the scale will change nest week good luck to u and hope ur feeling well I'm pretty much to feeling normal again

Just wondering I'm 9 days post and wondering Is crystal lite safe to drink yet?

NO NO NO YOU GUYS OF course im not that stupid im wondering for the future WHEN you were able too like at 2,3,or 4 months when were able to eat some of this stuff, im thinking about a greek salad cuz im craving it i wouldnt actually go ahead and eat a week after i dont wanna DIE

hey ladies it me melissa i hope you guys can answer this question, im one week post op today feeling pretty good now but its my 3rd day with hardly any sleep not because im unfortable and in pain but i dunno my brain wont go to sleep alll the way you know when ur still kinda of awake but sleeping at the same time, not your normal deep sleep, is this normal after sleeve surgury im worried i want sleep again i nice 8hr + would be nice. i hope it goes awayso someone answer this please

I'm happy I found this I'm one week post today and I'm outta pain but I'm going on day 3 with hardly any sleep I'll go to bed but it's like I'm still of awake my brain won't go to sleep at all!!!! My body wants to, this isn't normal for me at all, do u think it will pass or shoulda go get a sleep aid , it feel so nice to actually get an 8hr sleep. This normal after surgery?

So was just wondering when anyone was able to some salad I'm a week out and iv been craving a Greek salad but I know that won't be for a bit I tryed some sour crout and apple sauce that dint seem bad at all, do you think I could try some home made salsa? I'm scared if I try something I'll pop a hole in my stomach nd die! Also I was also wondering the dr gave me these pills to reduce the risk of alsars or gallstones and I have to take 3 a day do u think I really needa take them? One more thing is any of y'all able to have a bite of a subway sub or a pita from the pita pit

Thanx I checked it out it says I can eat apple sauce and cottag cheese tomorrow

Thanx guys this helps so much I'm 7 days post op do think of a tryed a pea size peice of meatloaf my husband is a great cooking smelling and looking at it auuuuhhhhh is there anything u guys ate a week post op suppost to be clear fluids only for 2 weeks maybe it's just head hunger

so im 6 days post op and i feel great finally i never slept last night for some reason i have no idea kind of a tummy ache but drank and felt better, but im scared im having these cravings for good food like iv been craving a greek salad a peice of chicken, flakes of ham mash potatoes etc, is this normal for only being 6 days post op, im scared and worried that ill never be able to eat a sandwich again or chicken wrap from timmies, so for the people that are months post op whats it like can you eat pretty much anything now but just in small portion??? and hows spicy food? i love franks hot sauce and i dont wanna give that up, i cant wait for this 2 weeks to go by so i can have some mashed potato or something im HUNGRY

Ya sorry for ur pain the dr gave me liquid tylonal with codene nd it really helps go ask for some of that
