Yesterday completed week 5. Today my food intake has increased. I've been eating between 2-3 oz at a time. Yesterday & today it has increased to 4-5 oz. everything taste good. When I am full I don't have that pain in my chest that I have been having. Just a full feeling. Has anyone else food intake increased that much between 5 & 6 weeks. I don't want to over eat or stretch my stomach. Is this normal.

Try some watered down grits. I did at 10 days. It helped me feel more full & satisfied. My friends doctor put her on this at day 8. So I did it at day 10. Made me feel so much better. Eat it very slow & do not over eat. I put some Splenda in it. At day 14 I added a small amount of smashed up banana.< /p>

Sounds like you r not getting in enough Protein. Lack of protein will cause your weight lose to stall

Purchased the Celebrate Vitamins. The Calcium plus is the size of a quarter. 3 r to be taken. I also r taking the multi-Vit & Iron. That's a total of 6 chewable tablets. I know not to take the Calcium seperate. The problem I am having I am 14 days post opt. The Vitamins taste like a sweet tart, not bad but they made me nausea. I even take them seperate. Does any one have a chewable Vit smaller than these or any idea. Maybe as I become more post opt it will get better.

I used Dr Jose Rodriquez in Jaurez,Mexico. He's been doing surgery for 25 years. Over 14,000 gastric surgeries. A nurse from Texas was there the same day I was having the surgery. Ske works in the department the hospital does all these surgeries & plastic surgery. She did not have it done wherevshe works because her insurance would not pay for it. She researched it thoroughly. I have had 11friends have it there. Not one person has had a problem StarMedica hospital. Went through BeLightWeight.

Hi! I am getting my sleeve 8-17-12 in Tijuana' date=' Mexico with Dr. Jose Rodriguez. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote']I just had my sleeve done Tuesday by Dr Rod in Juarez. He does surgery in both places. He is wonderful. Their service is awesome. When I got home in Tennessee I had a question & emailed him & heard back with an answer by evening. You won't be sorry. I'm 5 days 10 lbs plus my pre-opt 10 lbs. making it 20.

Am drinking about 1 1/2oz at a time. Howy minutes do I need to wait before I begin to sip/drink again. Going through that fear of Over drinking & stretching my pouch or causing it to leak.
