Lately I've been getting feedback from people whom I am eating with saying that I am making them feel guilty for eating so much and I am eating so little.
I so just want to say stop projecting your issues on me and don't make me the bad guy. I'm going though enough right now without your guilt piled on top! Geeze.

I don't understand why it was ok for your brother and not you in her eyes. Smh. I feel for you. I am a private person too.

I would call your surgeons office right away.

You should have it checked. It should not be bigger than the size of a marble, usually the size of a pea. It should be sore and tender but not painful. It's from sutures. If it's a golfball size you may have something else going on. Listen to your wife. It my be nothing but don't take a chance.I had my sleeve surgery too about 13 days ago, yesterday i too noticed a golf ball size knot and lump (Very tender to touch) (Painfull when touched) just above my belly button, called my Dr.s office, there closing early today and is 65 miles away so no good going there, he said if i'm worried, go to nearest emerg. room. or see you Monday, today is wed before thanksgiving,,, wife says if it was bad, Dr. would have said GO TO EMERG. room, not if your worried?, what do you think?. Worried that somethings wrong?

I didn't wear one immediately post op but I'm a RN and went back to work 10 days post op. It saved me while working! I only wore it at work for about 2 weeks after going back.

I've accidentally drank too close to eating and it causes EVERYTHING to come up in a spectacular encore presentation.

@@BLERDgirl - Both clasps feel really secure. They are very sturdy lobster clasps. You can also buy them which aren't interchangeable with one clasp and one fixed side.

The caduceus appears to be under a layer of lacquer. It looks well made, I don't have any fear of it breaking or falling apart.How does this hold up? I was thinking of getting a new one because my current one has such a small caduceus symbol and it occasional falls off. I have the same lobster catch on my current. I don't want to spent money and still have to worry about losing the Bracelet.< /p>

I am so sorry you are having these problems. That sounds awful. I do hope things improve for you. I completely understand that what is happening is not what your expected. Please keep me updated on how you are doing
Thank you fellow Disney fan, I will. Hopefully a year from now I will regret my regrets. Just feeling pretty low and discouraged tonight. Thank you again for your kind words.

I am on day 28 post sleeve, and yes I do regret my decision. I feel like I have wasted $8500.00 out of my family's funds to do something that isn't even working. I lost 12 before surgery, and additional 8 the first week. I have not lost a single pound since. I am unable to eat without foaming to the gills, ending with spectacular encore of spewing. (commenters please don't tell me to eat slower, chew more, don't drink. I have tried to go so far and portioning out ¼ cups and eating over an hour. I have consulted my NUT and I am eating and doing what I am supposed to. I am getting my fluids and Liquid Protein in, I just don't want to live the rest of my life on liquids ). I watch my family and friends enjoy themselves visiting over foods while I sit there because I have developed a fear of eating with people around. I am simply frustrated and upset. I feel like all of this misery is for nothing.
I am truly happy for those in which this has worked, and I hope your regrets soon pass. I also wish you the best and hope you never have to feel as I do.

Good job!
I think it actually a referred pain from where they part the muscles. It is very painful. Can't wait for the healing to finish!
-
I had the same exact pain in the same exact spots. I am almost at 1 month and it still comes and goes if I bend or turn wrong. For awhile it was constant. Now it's just sporadic.

I did't have a bowel movement for three days after my procedure. My stools were black for almost a week.
-
I am feeling the same exact way right now. I was sleeved on 10/22. I stalled at 1 week and haven't lost a pound since. Thinking I made a huge mistake. I just think I'm one of those people for which it didn't work. I hit the weight I have never been able to lose past.
-
Ok I hit a week one stall that has lasted 2 weeks as of today. Has anyone heard of that?and before a one says it. I have contacted my NUT, I am doing everything I am supposed to.
-
I am totally freaked out by food now. If I eat one thing that is not Protein or frivolous I actually almost have a panic attract related to guilt. I still feel like this surgery hasn't and isn't going to work. I have been stalled since one week after surgery. I am at 3 weeks out now. So for two weeks I haven't lost a single pound. I'm afraid to even eat anything now in fear of gaining. I'm just wondering if I have done the right thing.
-
I've set timers and made sure I don't finish sooner than a half an hour. I've portioned out everything as instructed. I don't drink as instructed. It happens even after the first bite and no matter how many times I chew.
-
Will the foamies ever go away? I am early in my post op phase, two weeks to be exact, of VGS and hiatal hernia surgery. I can't seem to eat anything including full liquids without it happening. Does it eventually go away or is this a forever thing?
-
I am an RN, I was sleeved with hiatal hernia repair on 10/22 and went back to 12 hour shifts on 10/31. I was tired but ok. I would recommend an abdominal binder if you are more active in your job. I don't know if I could have done it without it. I have only worn it while at work, haven't needed it otherwise. Good luck to you.

Mine says to allow me to order off of the child's or senior menu. Sometimes there are healthier options on the senior menu. I will keep it with me just in case.

3+years out milestone?
in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

This makes me feel regrets and fear. I feel like I'm going to be a ticking time bomb to balloon back up at 3 years
