  1. I'm 2 month's post op. Went to New York over Christmas. I had a terrible time eating out. I my son took me out for lobster which I thought would be fine. I. Felt sick for nearly two hours. Will it always be like this? He doesn't know about the surgery so it was really difficult. Advice please?

  3. I don't like solid foods and I'm 7 weeks postoperative. I don't get the same pleasure from eating like I used to. I get uncomfortable quickly too.

  7. I'm having trouble posting my topic so if it's entered twice you'll know why! I'm 6 weeks post op and was able to eat a whole taco including the shell. No upsets. I would think that would be too much food. Comments?

  14. I am 6 weeks post op and have lost 17 lb. I'm getting about 70 grams of protein and 64 oz of water. I go to the gym too. I'm so depressed! I'm 63 and had a low BMI. Any advice?

  16. I was 184 and got the sleeve. I just kept gaining before I got it done. I'm 63 and am losing slowly. 6 weeks out and have lost 17 lb. I would do it again though!
  17. I was sleeved 10/24. BMI was 31. Have lost 14 lb and am 63. I think I'm a slow loser. Only 1 lb lost last week.
  18. I was a BMI of 31 with 50 lb to lose to be at a great weight. I'm one month out from surgery and have lost 13 lb only. I guess I'm what they call a slow loser. I'm following the program completely. I thought I would have lost more. I'm also 63.
  19. I was sleeved in October 25, 2014. I've only lost 12 lb and have experienced the 3 week stall as well. I am 63 and am a low BMI (31). I'm doing everything right, getting in my Water and Protein, low carbs, and calories are between 500 and 700. I'm exercising too (walking). I guess I'm what you would call a slow loser!
  20. I've only lost 12 lb in the first two weeks, then stalled for 10 days. Then lost another 2 lb in a week. I think I'm a slow loser. I'm 63 and a low BMI to begin with.
  21. I was really scared but the thought of carrying around this weight overrode my fear. I kept coming to the boards and saw very few complications. I had my worries until the day of surgery. But I went through with it!im so happy I did!
  22. I've been in a stall for 9 days which started in week 3. I have a low BMI and have only lost 12 lb plus I'm 63, how long will this last?
  23. Dr. Guillermo Alvarez does. He's wonderful and the care is awesome!
