  1. My doc said no coffee for 1 month, after that it was fine in limited quantities
  2. 3 months out. 34 lbs gone. No regrets!
  3. I did not check into payments, we went to the bank and took out a personal loan. I know at the seminar they handed out a flyer on financial options. The sleeve in Mexico with my Dr. Is only $4200. Hope that helps.
  4. Thanks for sharing!
  5. One day while she was
  6. I am doing great! I am a lightweight (bmi lower than 40) I have lost 34 lbs and am so pleased. I wish there were more active members on this board.
  7. I had the MGB and I am 3 months out. I don't dump so far, I have a hard time eating meat at this point. I'm sure it will get better. I went to Mexico because I was self pay as well. I paid $6500. With Dr Verboonen. No regrets! Good luck on making your decision.
  8. Put my size 8 jeans on and didn't even have to lay on the bed to get them on!
  9. I am almost 3 months out and I do throw up occasionally. Dry or greasy foods.
  10. I take it and have had no problems
  11. I have found that rubbing down just under my breast bone really helps. Also Tamg26k is right if you get it back up you will feel so much better.
  12. I had a man at work look me up and down and ask if my Staples were inside or out? I honestly was confused at first, he then said (in front of everyone standing around the water fountain) I heard you had your stomach stapled! OMG I was so shocked I didn't even know what to say. People are so rude!
  13. I am 9 weeks out and I get hungry! I am only able to eat a few bites and I am full for a couple hours. Then I start getting hungry again.
  14. OMG! My surgery was Oct 1st as well. I am down only 31 pounds. You have done amazingly well. Do you mind if I ask what your start weight was?
  15. I am 8 weeks out and able to eat about 1/2 cup. Over about a 30 minute period.
  16. Thank you so much, something's got to help. This is the worst kind of pain.
  17. Am having a horrible time with hemorrhoids! I haven't been constipated, if anything I've had very soft stools. Please tell me this is not a reoccurring event. Any ideas how to sooth my firing back side lol. I have the OTC creams
  18. 30 lbs down today! Thought it was never going to happen.
  19. Gosh I think most of us have experienced that horrible chest pain of over eating. Most of us are very aware of how we are eating from that point on. Well except me and I am a slow learner had to be miserable a couple times before I made the connection lol
  20. No I lose an average of 3 to 5 lbs a week. I have always snacked though.
  21. I do, I get hungry.lots of people say they don't feel hunger, I feel hunger. my cheese stick or yogurt is what gets me to the next meal.
  22. Yesterday was my 2 month mark and I have lost 30 lbs.
  23. Bought my knee boots on black Friday!
  24. Gosh it doesn't sound like dumping to me, I would be more apt to think beans were bad. Since you were fine last night. I am 8 weeks out so I am not a veteran by any means. I will be watching to see the other responses.
