Thank you all for your responses. I am taking my Protein and Vitamins but i guess my sugar was low because i decided to have 1oz of baby food banana, pear, pineapple and broccoli and boy! That brought me back to life i even went to the gym! ???? i feel good.

Happy Thanksgiving all!

Thanks

Well, today i am feeling a bit blue. I am thinking Thursday i wont be able to Celebrate how i always do and makes me feel anxious i know this will pass and i will go back to normal in a few months but still gives you that feeling. I hope you had a better day

Hi! Well, the surgery was a success. The doc found a hernia and discover the doctor in colombia just took my money and did not do anything???? but it doesn't matter anymore. Thank God i found such a good and compassionate doctor! God bless him. By the way i have lost 10 pounds in 7 days wow!!! Happy dance.

Girl! Each time you fit on a size smaller you will be saying this was worth it! Good luck ????????

Jessica, you made the right decision. You were brave enough to do this procedure so in my opinion your half way done because now, you cant go back. There is no other choice but to finish what you started because your dr. Cant return your belly back ????. food will be always be there just not right now. Look at it like you are trying to figure your relationship with food and you need a time out from it . You need to focus on yourself not food. The most important thing here right now it is you on how this is going to change your life forever. You are getting liberated. Enjoy. I hope i make sense. Well, that is what i said to my self today and i feel better. Did you go for your follow up? Good luck

Tomorrow makes 1 week and I have up and down with emotions I don't know what to do ????????

Why? What is going on? Tomorrow makes 1 week for me too and a lot of emotions why depress?

I was sleeve the 18th and my belly is a bit swollen and bloated. I hope goes away soon.

Thank you guy! I really appreciate all your input.

Isopure has clear ready-to-drink Protein Drinks. There are 40 grams of Protein in each bottle.

Thanks @@BeagleLover i'll look right now.

I had my revision on the 18th and i was told to be in clear liquids for 2 weeks. I been drinking liquids with no problem but i am starting to feel hungry i need more than Gelatin and chicken broth ????????

I have the same problem if i eat to fast. I have to sip little by little i just starting to feel weak. I am taking the Vitamins and all i think i am just getting bored. Lol! I'll call the DR today.

@ newstartme....when were you sleeved?

The 18th. They kept me 2 days because the doctor that did the sleeve the first time only cut a little piece of the stomach and my magnesium levels were low . Well, it just happen that i am allergic to it so i got a Benadryl shot plus the pain and my blood pressure went down. Lol! I am feeling better now . The doctor said i cant have any Protein after 2 weeks. No hunger pain yet! Just a lot of gas trapped in my left side.

I only had steri strips as well. I think they used a glue or something. But otherwise today finally starting to half feel normal. Still moving slowly and tummy pain, which I agree is like my muscles are rejoining. I think I've cleared all the anesetic and my head feels clearer. Great nights sleep. Only up once to walk a little and take meds. Just walked after to make sure they went down. I got on the scales this morning and I'm down 4kg since Tuesday day of surgery. But still think it's just Fluid and worried of dehydration. One day at a time ????

Same experience. ????

I feel like my stomach is having spasms. Anyone else feel like this?

I do! Specially if i drink the liquids to fast.

I wonder about mine as well because I seemed to have plateaued too early in the game. I have slowed down too much and don't seem to have much restriction. I mean I still get sick at times but it is because of oils that are hidden in foods that I eat and not because I overeat.

How did you determine there was a problem? What did the other doctor have you do to that helped them realize that your pouch was too big?

I would love to know and ask that you inbox me to discuss.

Good luck on your revision!

Send a message and i be happy to talk to u

I am back at home. The gas is a pain. But to surprise my doc said in colombia they did not do anything. I

They are the best!!

I have to be in the hospital at 11:30 am. Omg ! I am so nervous but happy

After so many appeals with the insurance and struggle today, my surgery at 1:45 pm. I had my first surgery in Colombia and my surgeon here in the usa found they left the pouch to big and that is why i did not lose all the weight. This time i am determine to finish what i started.
