    Funny NSV

    I teach high school and thankfully this happened before students were in the hallway. I left my room and started to walk down to the workroom. A coworker was walking several steps in front of me when my skirt fell down. Thankfully he did not turn around when I gasped and ran into the closest classroom. I also had a slip on so I was covered. I'd love to see our security coverage of that one though! Love that this is the first year in the 13 I've been there that I've worn a skirt or dress and LOVED it!

    I need help

    I have been the same way over the last week. I'm going to go back to the early days and focus on liquids and protein tomorrow! We can do this! We've worked too hard to mess up our progress! Food does not taste as good as being thinner feels!

    Snacking

    Wow! I was about to post the same thing! Surgery June 1st and down 58 and craving junk! Thanks for sharing. Just knowing I'm not alone gives me motivation to make the right choices!

    Nausea

    I had to take Zofran for nausea for a couple weeks. Try different fluids. I couldn't handle artificially sweetened things like Popsicles or crystal light. Decaf tea is all I could tolerate. It does get better.

    Pain all over 2 weeks post-op

    I had it too and it went away after a few days.

    Can I take Imodium AD for diarrhea?

    My sleeve doesn't like sugar free stuff due to artificial sweeteners. I couldn't do the SF Popsicles or crystal light post op at all. Decaf tea is all I could tolerate and is still my go to drink. Maybe that would help. I have taken Immodium but not until 4-5 weeks out.
  10. So excited that all of a sudden this week I am tolerating more food. Still not getting in necessary calories, but I can now tolerate yogurt and cottage cheese. Protein drinks are good too and I can finally eat 1/4-1/3 cup of food per meal for at least 2 meals a day. Adding a third tomorrow. I'm even getting more and more fluids in everyday. But here's the best part: My daughter gave me a hug yesterday and backed up and said, " What's that?" I looked at her funny and she lifted my shirt and pressed on my rib. Then she said "I've never felt that before. I'm so proud of you mommy."

    6 weeks out, my post op VSG

    Welcome! I was sleeved on June 1 as well and have similar results. Congrats!!!!
  12. Following. I'm 6 weeks out and still have trouble. I did get clearance for non chewable. Hope it helps!
  13. Wheat thins are on my list but only 4 with some tuna or chicken salad. I have had a lot of nausea, especially with medication so I've used 1-2 a day to help.
