I can only read at a third grade level so I couldn't make it through all these posts made by higher level readers. From what I could comprehend though is that you should be careful not to have sex with a stranger even if they is nice to you. You should be careful. If you are their boss you should tell them not to sleep with their customers cuz it is bad for business. Plus, you don't need to have the sleeve surgery and also wind up with no baby so you might want to just say no or bring a lot of condoms. Now, frankly, I saw Omar's picture an I so would have fkd him, but then again I'm a big whore. I hope this helps everyone.

Walk as much as you possibly can!

Hey does anyone know where I can get me some Brazilian diet pills?
I've pretty much tried everything else.

I get that too sometimes, I don't think it has happened around anyone yet, seems like it's more after I drink Water. I look forward to hearing what others have to say.

I had my sleeve in early March and just used normal band aids over my 5 incisions just to protect them for my flight home. Worked well, used steristrips a few times after I got home and then nothing. They are healing very well. I put Vitamin E on them daily and soon be using a scar gel on them.

On my way to San Diego!!!!

Thanks for sharing that Bry, yeah it does seem that kind of stuff usually happens that way, right after you say never! I wish you much success as well!
KeeKee, sliming is like before you had surgery you might have an episode where you felt like you might toss your Cookies and it's like your mouth is watering but more at the back if your throat. It's part mucous and part saliva, or so it seems to me. I don't think it happens with everyone, but it was interesting to me that I noticed that I hadn't experienced it and BOOM, the very next day there it is. Now, after surgery, I suppose it something that happened as a result of eating the wrong thing and as a precursor to throwing up. I didn't actually vomit any food, just some slime. Don't worry if it never happens to you, you've always got the numbers going down on the scale and smaller clothing sizes to look forward to.

You will love Dr Kelly! He's awesome and so is his staff! Lora Lee is terrific!

Exactly as Jackarae posted, this was and should not be in no way any type of test!! And believe you me, no adverse experience was ever done on purpose!!! I am doing as prescribed as closely as possible, and the episode I did have...although it was indeed an accident...was entirely due to me missing the warning signs. When it did indeed happen, the only thoughts I had was my surgeon, my nutritionist, and the many forms of literature saying to me in unison "TOLD YOU SO"!!!

Ok, so maybe I’m a tad off, but I am still CELEBRATING! I had VSG with Dr. Ramos Kelly in Tijuana, Mexico a little over 2 weeks ago on the 4th of March. Last night I was having my dinner and it seemed like I was never going to get full. Now, mind you, at the present time, ‘never getting full’ means I’m almost headed to ¾ of a cup of Soup. I felt like I could just keep eating. I was bummed because my first thought was “This isn’t working”. Yesterday, I also thought about the concept that some call sliming when they eat too much. I was proud that I had not performed that little maneuver, but at the same time, a little bit bummed because it also made me thing “This isn’t working”. Read, I WANT TO SLIME LIKE ALL THE OTHER KIDS!
Now, you may be asking yourself, “Jackarae, just what are you CELEBRATING”?. Well I will tell you, today, I got really adventurous and tried to eat something new and not only was I only able to eat a little over half of what I had doled out, it actually tore me up and made me so stinkin’ uncomfortable that I thought I was gonna die, I mean Roseanne Roseannadanna thought.I.was.gonna.die! AND, guess what, guess what, I also SLIMED! Now I’m smiling through the pain, I know this is gonna work and it’s making me happy. Maybe I’m some kind of sick ticket, but remember, It’s the little things in life that make it worthwhile!

Sorry for any confusion PDX, this was in no way a test. I DID NOT test my sleeve on purpose or eat something to attempt to force discomfort or anything like that. You have got to be kidding me, at only two weeks out I'm still a little sensitive and extremely respectful of what has been done to my body. I was merely reporting how something played out and even though it was an uncomfortable situation I chose to take that lemon and make 2-4 TBSPs of lemonade, which of course I can't drink cuz we ain't supposed to have any citrus juice this close in.
I sure hope that no one flames you! There is no need for that at all. After all, with electronic communication, I believe that everyone deserves a wide birth. At the end of the event, I'm still happy to know this is so working and well.
So to be clear: KIDS, PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.
Namaste y'all.

I live in Massachusetts and am having it at my local hospital.

My son had surgery Aug 20th. He has lost 135lbs and is doing great. Where are you having surgery and do you speak any spanish? He is a great surgeon. Good luck!

I had my surgery with dr. Kelly on 9/9/2013. And it went GREAT. Not one single complication or side effect. The whole experience was wonderful. He is a very skilled surgeon with tons of experience with this surgery. I have nothing but good things to say about him. You will be in great hands! Pm me anytime if you have questions

Hello everyone, as being a here at these boards for a long time I come to know some subjects tend to get a little heated with opinions. This happens to be one of them. Just remember these are just that... opinions. When it comes down to it the best thing to do is research facts and seek advice from your medical professionals with any decision you make.
Please all remain respectful when replying to any subject, we are all here to give support softly. Thanks in advance.

I'm from Cleveland which is right outside of Chattanooga! I was sleeved on October 3. Congrats to everybody!

So I can get my sleeve AND have sex with a young, hot doctor?! Lol
