I have seen this on television. Normally this is for patience that have already had the sleeve or the full bi pass. Jovonia

Keep positive. I had sugery Oct 7, 2010 and I am down 33 pounds. I am like you and throw up normally once a day and it appears to be all sliming. I have noticed when I start to get the sliming feeling, I sip my Water and sip my water and it has make that go away within a few minutes. I have really been doing the excercise and I can tell. My butt is thinner and my thighs can breath! Yea. My goal is to loose 40 pounds before Thanksgiving. I know that I am really asking too much but I will continue to try and eat, eat, eat. Jovonia

A digestive enzyme will do away with the foamies! Jovonia

I would recommend everyone getting on a digestive enzyme. I went to the herb shop and got a liquid one and it has changed my life. My sliming is down to a bare minimum and I feel so much better. Jovonia

As for me, I lived on egg drop soup for my one week pre op diet. Lost over 10 pounds and was very happy with the results. As for the Protein shake part. I would suggest everyone go to GNC. You can buy their product and if you dont like bring it back full refund (with receipt). I have this stuff it is the extreme 60 whey protein (choc flavor) and I also got their shaker cup that has the metal ball in the middle. That will help due away with powder forming and will break it all up. I am extremely happy with this product. I put 12 oz of organic low fat milk with 1 1/2 scoops and it tastes like a choc shake from McD's. Jovonia

Hi everyone. This is a story for all of you that are thinking about having the VGS and for those that have already had it, I need help. I started off thinking about the lap band and then decided that was not for me because of so many differnt horror stories. I then choose to take the VSG and left the full by pass an option that I would take if I did not loose the entire 100 pounds that I wanted. Oct 7, 2010 I weighted in at the hospital, surgery morning, at 251.8 pounds with aBMI of 41. The first week I will tell you was crazy. I am burping up slim all the time and when I do it (about five teaspoons) is all that I can eat. I will start sliming (if you want to call it that) and If I do not spit it out, I will throw it up. On the second day after surgery, I had heart burn and indigestion so bad, I was wondering why I did such a stupid thing. I got up and made a HUGE bowl of fruite pebbles with milk. I had two bites with milk and was full and within 15 minutes the indigestion was gone and has never returned. I returned to work after two weeks and it was fine. I walked five times a day at least 10 minutes every time. My goal was to go further and further each time I walked. You must chew your food very good and eat slow. Do not make anything to drink when you sit down to eat, because that is a no no. At week two I weighted in at 226, yes I had lost over 25 pounds. Then as I enter week three I am still at the same weight. I am walking one mile a day five days a week and I am eating about 500 calories per day. I am lucky if I get 24 oz of wanter and yes, I only pea once a day. I have had two bowel movements since surgery. THat took about two weeks before my first bowel movement. I faithly take my liquid vitamins and calicum daily. I have not been doing Protein Drinks at all. My diet consist of what ever I want. I am not a big steak eater so that has not been an issue. I chew my food very well. DO NOT EAT RICE!!!!! I need help from you veterans, why am I not loosing. I think because i have not been doing my Protein Shakes? I am starting tonight before I go to bed! I am also starting to do my work outs on Monday. I am open to any suggestions. Please ask any questions, I will be more than happy to answer. Jovonia - St. Louis

[/url]You can do it. i am three weeks post op and I have not gotten anything stuck. But you will for sure know when your stomach is full because if you take one more bit you are going to throw it up.

My motivator was if I eat those fries my liver will not shrink and it could kill you. If I wanted candy, that is what I would think that one small candy bar could kill me if my liver has not went down in size. I lost 10 pounds in one week on liquid diet. I had egg drop soup, broth from top roman noodles, sugar free popsicles, diet soda a few saltines every now and then. You can do it. Jovonia - St. louis

I am three weeks out (surgery was Oct 7). I am walking every day about one mile and I have noticed when I walk I feel much better. I am currently at 227 and started at 251. My biggest problem is getting the liquids in. Does anyone have a solution. I am able to eat about five bites of food and then if I eat one more, I throw it up. Not sure how much weight I should be losing but I wish it would come off faster. What is Resourse Breeze? I have had head achs all my life on a daily basis. SInce surgery, I have NOT had a head ache yet! HMMMM. Jovonia - St Louis

Well I am three weeks post op and I can east about five small bits and I am full. SHould I dare to take one more, it is all coming up. I am also from St. Louis, who is doing your surgery and where? As for the 64oz of Water, ha ha good luck. I am not sure what is going on but I am very lucky to get down 24 oz a day. Anyone have any suggestions because I only go to the bathroom may be one time a day two at the most. Jovonia - St. Loius

It will happen. I had my surgery on 7 Oct and I three weeks out. How much are you eating, what are you eating and are you walking?
