Wow Are u kidding me? Who has time to read 8 pages worth of stuff not relevant to them! Be grateful alleygator that she took time to reply to you even if its not what u want to hear. And don't be rude regardless of how u feel. Shame on you!

are you sure its hunger and not gas or acid? are you taking an acid reducer? i dont feel true hunger, but i do feel like i am empty or a little weak. im 4 weeks post op, today.

Being that I no longer feel true hunger, its hard to know how long it takes to empty my tummy. I was told it can hold 3-4 oz at a time. I'm guessing certain foods take longer? water less? I'm completely ignorant on this. anyone have a clue?

Wow. To imply someones doctor is not good because he performed the surgery differently or used different technique is not only harsh but its a statement that does zero good after the fact if it were true. I have noticed that the method of surgery, diet afterwards and even pre op diet varies from different regions of the country AND based on the size/health/pre-existing scar tissue of the patient. You can not make an inflammatory blanket statement like that and not expect to ruffle a few feathers.

I'm sorry to hear it try not to be alarmed it is probably benign. Did they biopsy it? Was this a pre op endo?

What is bmr calorie requirement? My doc never told me about that

Cherish you gave great advice I needed to hear that too Op u r not alone I was sleeved 12/13 lost 30 lbs and haven't lost a damned thing since the new year Hang in there it will happen How could it not? I'm barely eat 700-800 calories a day! It WILL come off.

I'm also really interested in what u find. At minimum I know ill need a tummy tuck.

Listerene your mouth first which will numb it. Stick pill on back molar crunch it as best as u can and wash it down with whatever before it hits your tongue where ur taste buds are.

Mine is 1000 and then covered 90 percent after that.

Its insane. I'm up till 3-4 am, and the crazy thing is I'm not even super tired when I wake at 7. Whats up with that? Reduce your calories, reduce sleep? Anyone else, or am I the only weirdo?

WOW!!! You look amazing!

GREAT question! I d like to know as well

God, your an angel! called GI doc, picked up some samples and I ve been taking it since yesterday, feel better already despite the fact that he said "it probably wont work and i dont recommend it. Time to switch GI docs. 1,000 THANK YOUS!

Thank you so much for the reply. Believe it or not, they dont make the suppository form any longer (canasa) but maybe I could talk to the doc about finding a compound pharmacy to do so. I'll be 3 weeks post op tomorrow. I put a call into my nutritionist, I am concerned the coating may get "stuck" in my pyloric something or another, which she explained could not handle seeds, pickles, etc. for 6 months. Anyway, I am miserable right now so I'm willing to try anything. Thanks again for your reply, and if you are a car mechanic, I wish you were local, because your pretty darn smart! Thanks for the suggestions!
