I am 2 years post. I have been eating and drinking horrible since the holidays. Drinking 8 to 10 beers twice weekly was a normal thing for me. Of course when you drink you get hungry, so snacking was normal too. I know what I have been doing was no the right choice. Now, I gained 10lbs. I am very upset and plan to get back on tract. In the last week I started having a burning feeling under my ribs and I burp more then I ever have before. Big burps! I called my dr today and was honest about drinking. He said that I have caused inflammation in my stomach lining and need to start taking Prilosec once a day. Has anyone been in my position? I need help I know. Did I stretch my tummy? I hope not. Any positive input would be great?

Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I still have my gall bladder. Something to think about. Thanks!

I can see that happening. Thanks for the warning.

I am 5 weeks out and just wondering if anyone else has ate a fry out of their child's meal? I really just wanted one and after I had that one I was fine and very content. I had no urge for more. I have even done this at a restaurant with chips, I had a piece of one and was done and content. I guess it's a way for me to still feel "normal".

I had my surgery on 4/28/14 Pw 217 Sw 207 2 week post sw199 I have lost lbs, but my pants around my waist feels the same. I have always had a problem with losing my tummy:(. I also am not regular, so I'm not sure if this is why my tummy might not be going down. I am on soft foods and tolerating them well. I only drink Water and get 50-60oz daily. I walk daily. Any help or suggestions would be great.

I am 3 days post surgery and feel like I want real food. I hope this is just a phase. I have not stepped on the scale, but I will at a week. I'm super excited about this journey. We can do this!!! Best of luck!!
