For sure - call the doctor immediately! I have only vomited 3 times - each time I over did it ( I am a little hard headed) but ever since the surgery I have had HORRIBLE acid reflux - have tried 4 different meds. One thing that seem to trigger this was the diced garlic in the jar - I had to give that away which my daughter is thrilled with cuz I like a lot of garlic as seasoning. I was told that coffee was a no-no for a while and it had to be decaffeinated too. So that may have triggered things too. Most important CALL your doctor and get an appointment PRONTO!

At three weeks your stomach is still in a major healing stage. The nerves are not back to working right and you can be doing your self harm by eating so much and of such a food. Your sleeve will work but you HAVE to make sure you follow your food plan and portion sizes.

I found yesterday Water aerobics seem to be working on stomach muscles in lower part of stomach. I could feel it when I was in water working out. It was just like old school exercise in water. Yesterday was first class ever so we will see. Worth a try though.

I did take the option program only two of us lost 10% of our weight out of 20 ppll. My Dr. Only accepts those who lost the 10% but I do know a couple in the of girls who did have the surgery and they only lost 7-10 lbs. please try to lose the 3 that u gained. As long as you do not gain they will do the surgery if u need help let me know I will help you I lost 53 lbs pre op . Good luck!

Initially I could not eat a scrabble egg - it just sat on my stomach. I was soooooo disappointed. what I had to do was measure out 1/4 cups of whatever I needed to eat 1/2 of that then wait 2-3 hours. Sipping on Water and then Protein Drink between. How thick is your cream of wheat - thin it out may help. I am doing so much better now. A couple of occasions I pushed it and had to wait it out as you did. Most IMPORTANTLY call your doctors. They are the professionals and should check/double check to see if there is a physical problem. Insist that they help you through this and do not let them dismiss this until you feel it is resolved.

I like Soups with Protein powder.

I am having strong problems but still losing weight - I am a foodie/foodle and the mental battle is continual but I have to make this work. As for wondering about the sleeve compare to the band & by-pass - I have know people who have had not reach their weight loss goals. One person who had the band have only lost 20 pounds in 2 years - she has some family issues. I have meet a few people who have had problems with their "bands" and had to have repair surgery - the sleeve.It took me about 17 years to decided to have the surgery - and I am grateful because of the progress in this field of bariatric weight loss.
If you have the time to review this lifestyle and think you can do weight loss tradtionally I say your decision to cancel is right on. I miss eating foods that are on the No-No list but medically I have to readjust my life.

Also, adding fish oil supplements to your list of Vitamins.< /p>

If there's a Sally's near you...I suggest "Ion Repair Solutions" night repair. It says overnight repair, but I use it weekly after I get out of the shower. You just put a pump or two in your hand and massage it through your hair. No rinsing. I have curly hair that seems to get dryer as I age. This product has made my hair feel great again!
