3 weeks today..its been horrible..

Has anyone had the stomach fli?

I was sleeved 2 1/2 weeks ago..lost 10lbs on pre op diet..then 12 lbs since Dec. 3rd surgery. 22lbs altogether..haven't lost anymore..its been a week of no loss..eating 1ounce of tuna and a piece of cheese for lunch. A 1/2 a hard boiled egg and a quarter of banana for breakfast...for dinner 1/4 cup of fat free refried beans and another 1/2 of egg or another piece of cheese. 1 cup of fat free milk and a scoop of protein powder..lots of water all day...that is it..Why am I not seeing more of a steady loss?

It is funny that we all get anxious about moving onto the next phase of food. I didnt think I would make it through clear liquids..now I cant wait until Monday for soft solids. ahhhh..a piece of string cheese..is going to be fabulous and more protein

The only thing that I can seriously think of that has cbanged over the course of the last couple of months is the protein powder..but the breakout is only on my face.

I was sleeved on 12/3. My face is so badly broken out. I think it is s combination of pimples and something else. It got bad during preop diet and has gotten worse post op. Could it be from the protein powder...stress...anyone have any ideas?

I tAke Paxil and Buspirone. I have lost 26# since 11/19. 10# on preop diet and 16# since sleeved on 12/3..getting them down is a bear...eventually I will be able to swallow them with water. Right now Im.blending them with my milk and protein drink...yuck..I dont believe they have anything to do with successful weight loss

I am a 12/3 girl. I enjoyed my cream of mushroom soup for supper. No more clear liquids for this girl. Felt full of energy yesterday..not so much today..taking my anti depressant and anti anxiety meds is no fun..its like doing a shot of the worst alcohol but having to sip it..yuck

Im 5 days out and when I drink too much I get a big bubble of gas up through my chest and then I burp..not the most pleasant feeling..I also have some diarreha(sp)? I guess I would rather have that than be constipated.

I too have had cravings or just wanting to enjoy something since I am not eating..have had some puffs..not good..and i loved smoking...

I had surgery on the 3rd.. Feel good but at times still very weak and at times after sipping I get really bad pains in my upper stomach area..like into my chest. It goes away quickly but is uncomfortable. Cannot wait to be off liquid diet. Sipping all day on protein drink and decaf tea.

I feel sore..not much energy..mentally better than yesterday but still feeling like OMG what have I done..Im not good at not feeling good so it might be that more than anything..

3 days post op..hard getting all the liquids in..very full feeling..would like a smoke..I know its bad but I kind of want one.

As I get closer to surgery 12/3 my anxiety is ravenous and I have sneaking smokes..Anyone else in my shoes or has ever been there. I know its the wrong direction it is just helping with my anxiety..any info would be greatly appreciated..I dont plan on smoking on my way to surgery and want nicotine out of my system before 12/3..but i feel like im helping myself but also taking chances and making bad choices..although it is calming especially while on pre op diet..

Hi... Im having surgery on 12/3..Today is my 43rd Birthday. I went out for my last hurrah last night. I have some fears about my surgery. I have smoked for 25 years..Quit cold turkey for 6 weeks..kind have been cheating with ecig..regular cig s bit on the last two weekends..Scared about outcome..nicotine urge is worsening..because of my increased anxiety as I near my date..Any advice or personal experiences that might help me
