Anybody find a product that really works? I have three kids and the tiger strips to prove it! I have tried cocoa butter and don't think it works. I seen mederma but don't want to purchase unless it really works it is pricey.

Two weeks post op. Out of habit I finished a Jello pudding cup . Sitting at my desk at work. Don't know what I was thinking. I feel fine. After the fact I looked up how many ounces (3.5) which equals 7 tbsp. EEEKKK! I am only supposed to have 2 tbsp per serving right now.

Hey. I was sleeved on 12-28. I am 32 & 3 kids - 15 yr old, 12 yr old, 8 yr old. Doing ok. Had/having bladder problems actually have a cath in until hopefully tomorrow for retention. Had my post-op appt today. I am down 15 lbs. I am such a yo-yo dieter I keep expecting the scale to start going back up. I haven't done much cooking for the kids. Hubby taking care of that & they are pretty much old enough to pop a pizza in the microwave etc.

I just had mine done on 12/28. I went thru the same fears. My hubby was my rock. He was with me 100% of the time. I have battled for years with my weight & I was tired. I would lose weight only to gain it back. You'll be fine post-op. I personally have no hunger. My mind wants me to eat but my stomach isn't hungry. it's crazy. I have a friend who had the band done & still was hungry. She lost quite a bit but gained some back. I previously had my gallbladder out 2 years ago. Honestly - the pain/discomfort from the VSG is the same as the gallbladder.

Mine hasnt decided to wake up. Been wearing a catheter since Friday. I have a follow up Wednesday. Just a bump in the road.

Had to go to emergency room last night I couldn't take the pain any more. They had to Cath me, I had 2 liters of urine! Hopefully bladder will wakeup today

I have frequent uti's. This doesn't feel like one. I will try the standing up idea. Thanks guys

Sleeved on 28th. While in hospital I had trouble but just thought it was normal since I wasn't getting much fluids. Lots of pain since I came home. Feeling better from incisions but bladder killing me! Any ideas?
