    Any couples out there both sleeved?

    My husband and I were both sleeved within a week of each other. It made life easier in a lot of ways that we both did it. The hardest part for me was that the weight fell off of him a lot faster. The further out we got from surgery although I continued to lose I did slowed WAY down.

    Belch trapped when eating!

    I agree with Romny. It's caused by eating too fast and taking big bites. I bought toddler sililverware from Oneida It was pretty cheap... I used it to "train" little bites and you have to eat slower!
  7. My name is Rachel, I have an unhealthy relationship with food and I am out of control!!!I had my surgery in late November 2013; I am 18 months post op. I know I am making my own decisions and I know that I am the only one that can change, but I feel helpless right now!! I took a job in Houston and I and although my normal commute will be 45 min one way, I have been having to commute to another clinic while ours is being built. I have been commuting almost two hours one way since October. Next week I will start at my clinic and the commute will be better. My husband started a new job also and it is stressing him. We have a 10 year old and a 13 year old. With some major life stressors and I have completely fallen into my old bad habits. I am finding myself sneaking bad foods again. I find myself stopping at convenient stores to buy ice cream etc. It’s like I have no control!!! I get stressed and eat and for some reason it soothes me. I eat whatever it is seems like as fast as I can, afterwards, I feel like a failure and promise myself I will not do it again. I have gained 15 pounds and have never made it to goal weight. I started at 299 and I am sitting at 225 today. Another dirty secret, I have never exercised. I just haven’t found the time. I am in graduate school, work full time, married, and have two kids. OK guys, I have laid it all out there, which is very hard for me, but I desperately need some help! I need some new coping mechanisms, ideas for exercise to ease into, ideas to gain control again!!!

  9. Make sure that you are drinking enough. Sometimes, dry lips are a sign of dehydration. Hope you feel better!!!
