  7. I lost 28 lbs in the first 3 weeks and now all my pants are falling off.
  8. I'm 3 weeks out and with Kaiser you don't have the purée stage. So I've started with thin sliced deli meat. Dinner was 4 shrimp and 4 broussel sprouts. Then I get the full feeling. I drink about 45-60 ounces a day . I drink koolaid with Splenda . They prescribed protonix/pantoprazole for any acid reflux and then Zofram for nausea but haven't had any. Maybe those meds might help you.
  9. Since my surgery my wife has who has the LapBand has gained 30 lbs and keeps telling that I'm going to get skinny and find a new woman. It's like she was happier when I was overweight and diabetic. Anyone else get this from there spouses?
  10. I had my surgery 10/21 and yes the first week sucks especially trying to schedule the pills ,iron,carafate,calcium and b12 . Drinking enough is import so you don't get constipated.Right now I've lost 28# since surgery and getting energy back. I've stopped my diabetes medicine and need to see Dr to possibly lower other meds . What I always say is " Without challenges there is no Success!"
  11. Hey I'm Chris and I had my surgery on 10/21 . At my heaviest I was 330 but I'm 6'3 guy. On surgery day I was 270 and now I'm at 248 . My surgery was with kaiser and was the sleeve . After 2 weeks they tell you to start modified soft foods.
  12. I had my surgery 10/21 and took it easy for about 5 days . Internal pain was only 2 days for me with liquid pain killer . I'm an Auto Transport truck driver and I have to load up and climb around the trailer and lots of walking. I did a load one week after surgery and only had a little incision area pain. So it's a very physical demanding jobs and I feel great. Definitely it's different for everyone.
