Your surgery worked. It takes time. Have you had the big bowel movement yet ? Within three months nothing will fit. Get ready for it And hang in there.

Well if you try to eat real foods your body will stop you real quick. So hang in there it gets better.

I've learned to keep mints by my bedside because sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night choking on my stomach acid. I take Pantoprazol, which is prescribed.
Watch what you eat. Sweet Tea gives me heart burn. ketchup causes me to have acid reflux.

I am so glad I did this surgery in 2014. The weight is still off and I feel amazing.

I think Smooth Move is gentle. I drink it all the time. Don't make it too strong. You will poop a lot. It will clean out your system completely.
Be sure to drink lots of Water. Take reviews with a grain of salt. lol

So, ummmmm, what part of America are you in? 😉

The blonde makes me look so much younger lol. Here's a good before and after. Obviously the before was taken right after surgery. I was miserable. The after was taken 3 months after surgery.

Ask your doctor for Xanax. Go through with the surgery no matter what. It'll be the best thing you ever do.

6 miles the first day after surgery. I learned the golden rule was... never trust a fart.

I've heard yes and no. I'm 2 years out and I don't think my stomach has stretched. I can eat about six ounces until I'm full. I still get the restriction when I eat and I'm full.

To break my stall, I upped my calorie intake. I was actually eating ice cream and still losing weight.

Over Halloween I was naughty. It was actually after Halloween. I was at Wally World and they had candy on clearance. I bought $200.00 worth which is a lot when its 75% off lol.
I didn't realize it at the time but I could eat all the little chocolate bars I wanted and never get full. This was a slider food and I didn't know it. So I put on 10 lbs really quick. Once I realized what I had done, I took immediate action. I stopped eating bread, stopped eating sweets, doubled down on my workouts and even weight lifting and cut out the carbonated sugar free monster drinks. Low and behold, it seems like the weight just fell off.
I started getting shredded again and wow, I would never achieve results like this if it weren't for my sleeve.
It is definitely a tool and if you use it right, it works well.
Damn I'm going to miss the chocolate.

I feel your pain, I went through the exact same thing. I had to switch medications because of the time delay stuff. I take Xanax as needed now.

Its not like your going to have this surgery and be thin the next day. The first thing to watch for is about 5 days out from surgery, your going to have a nice, big bowel movement. Not being gross but it has to flow through for you to lose.
My suggestion is to throw away the scale. Be patient. Also, are you eating the same amount of food you were eating prior to your surgery? I think your answer to this is going to be no. So its just a matter of time. Your body has to burn off the fat which is used as fuel to give your energy and it has to discard the fat some how, so down the toilet it goes, sweat etc.
You will see major change in 3 months and within a year you will see even more. Remember you still have to do your part and the sleeve is only a tool.

I had my surgery in Mexico. I woke up, the pain wasn't bad at all. I felt like I had tried to do a lot of situps, best way I can describe it. I remember having a constant feeling that I was about to gag or throw up. The nurse kept me filled with anti nausea medication and pain meds. I flew in on Tuesday, surgery on Wednesday back home by Friday back to work that Monday.
I had a drain tube in my stomach. They took it out two days later. Over all the pain wasn't bad.

I was denied by my insurance because they don't cover it. I tried to have the surgery done locally and they told me I wasn't heavy enough, gain 30 more lbs then try again (this was me paying cash and they still said no) I went self pay, spent $4k and had it done in Mexico. I scheduled one week and was in Mexico the next. I'm inpatient and didn't want to wait. Arrived Tuesday, Surgery Wednesday, home on Friday, back to work on Monday. I'd do it all again if I had to.
If you have 4k on a credit card, go that route and get it over it. There is a link on this forum for a place that does it for $3200.00.

Let's face it, the sex is the best part.
