  1. I had the same problem, pre-op, when i used my CPAP and ate to close to bedtime. I sometimes have the same problem now, 3wks post-op, when i eat and rest on the sofa right after eating. Asked my doc about going back on Prilosec, was on before surgery, but he said it was not acid reflux, and it's normal, and will pass with time. Just your stomach adjusting to its new size.
  2. Your post is like the words came from my mouth!! I'm having the same problem, 3 1/2 weeks post-op and i've been "stuck" for 4 days. Went to my family doc this morning and i'm down 14 lbs since surgery, 58 lbs total. 14 lbs, 16 days, i'm thrilled!!!!! I just don't let it bother me. I'VE LOST 14 LBS!!!!! It will happen, just have to let it run its course. Hang in there!!
  3. I got a really good blender from GNC. It's small and portable and powerful. It comes with 2 travel cups and 2 lids. It is usually $40, but you can find it on "Hot Sale" for $20. They als have one that comes with a juice tomake your own juice. Hope this helps?
