It hurt me at 1st also.. Try something other than water, crystal light for example .. Or sugar free Popsicle - maybe even I've chips. My gas was awful-- it hurt in my shoulders right down to my backside! Keep walking , and when sitting Try to keep moving your legs up into your belly to move it.. It will get better - good luck

I was sleeved 4/10 and am down 43lbs since then (weight surgery say was 300) .. I was at a stall for about 3 weeks. In that time I was almost hospitalized for dehydration, also making me notice I wasn't eating enough.. Since recovery from that I get in all my liquid, eat about 800 calories a day including 50-60 g of protein... 1st week of doing that I broke the stall and lost 4 lbs. although it is discouraging at times we can't give up- IT WILL HAPPEN!!

Not that I know of.. I think it's a scare tactic honestly.

I didn't get anything-- troby@nycap.rr.com Or troby1124@gmail.comPlease add troby@nycap.rr.comPlease add troby@nycap.rr.comI am so glad to hear that we are all going through the sale thing.. I was definitely beginning to get frustrated as I stopped at 37 lbs and I'm 4 weeks Tomm.. Sounds to be the same time for all of us- I am also beginning to thing my body is going into starvation mode however BcI just can't seem to eat- it does nothing for me and when I force myself it hurts..I actually smoked up until 10 days before my surgery and if I wasn't severely sick that day (4/1) I would probably still smoke today.. However I can tell you that my lungs went 'flat' after surgery- the r n's couldn't get any respirations out of my upper lungs and I was VERY short of breath.. 24 hrs later and a lot of work I was ok but I always wonder if it would've been worse if I were still smoking.. Not a major complication however a little scary :-/Will do.. Please let me know if you have any questions .. Good luck!Honestly, I didn't want my insides rearranged if I didn't need to. The sleeve is just as successful and allows you to actually keep the nutrients you put in your body , unlike the bypass. Just my opinion.I was sleeved 4/10.. So almost a month & I am down 37.5... I was down 35 at 3 weeks though so def slowed however I really don't eat much at all and cant exercise yet- went for a couple walks but can't do muchOh wow! Every insurance / surgeon us different.. But it sounds like you're in good shape???? I had mine done April 10th. I also had my gall bladder out and a lg. hernia repaired at the sane time . I'm down 37 lbs since surgery! I'm so glad I did it but there's so much I didn't know !I see dr Trevedi out of St. Peter's . How far along are u?
