I have to wait until aug. 15 to see my doctor. I'm worried. Like you, I would love to make it to 150. I could easily guzzel 32oz of water or eat a large pizza and I don't think it would come back up.( Sorry if that's TMI ) but I just don't have the restriction. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to go around throwing up all the time but dang! ????

I was sleeved july 29,2013 and I am almost the exact same as you. I haven't seen my surgeon yet but I have never felt restriction. I don't know about the gerd but I have reflux (I always have) & I have to take two prilosec otc a day. I'm honestly so embarrest because my lowest weight was 187 in December and now I fluctuate between 198-203. My highest weight was 231 July 3,2013.

I had my surgery July 29. I have been fluctuating with the SAME 3-5 lbs since December. I've been doing cardio and weight training so I upped my calories from 800 to 1000. What's everyone else doing? I'm stuck & frustrated. I'm wondering if I 'broke' my sleeve.

add me too, I'm breederb

Oh honey, you're not alone as I'm a hot mess!!! I was sleeved on July 29 & my dr only allows liquids for THREE WEEKS. 21 days. My stomach actually growls like it did before... I imagine myself diving into a bowl of pasta at Olive Garden... Anyway, I think are thoughts are normal. Good luck

I was told to smash it on a cutting board.

I have reflux so badly right now that it woke me up at 2:30am. I took a pepcid (Rx from the doctor) & I am hoping it kicks in soon. I had reflux before my sleeve surgery & I took prilosic otc & it worked for me. I'm on liquids only. Good luck! :-)

Thank goodness I'm not the only one! I was sleeved yesterday around 3:00pm and I feel like I'm starving. My stomach seems to be howling & growling. I told every nurse, assistant, P.A. who walked into my room. Nobody had an answer of what this is..

This cracks me up- I don't remember posting this, LOL! I made it home from the hospital & all is well but when the nurse was pulling the drain tube I almost passed out. For some reason the tube was stuck. After a shot of morphine & deep breaths, the RN pulled it out.

I was sleeved yesterday & I'm here at Baylor Plano sipping away... I hope everyone is doing well

I wish they would have hooked me up with something to calm my nerves. I don't check into the hospital until noon. Oy!!!!

I'm tomorrow too!!! Best of luck to you!

I'm with you!!!! My check in time is noon on Monday. I can't hardly wait!!!!

Me too!
