  1. UGH... The crust is the best part....LOL
  2. 11 days post op, My BM is black and soft. Any concern?
  3. Hi,, I am 10 days out and feel the same way as you . What is more important in the early days, Protein or fluids
  4. I am 10 days post op and don’t feel any restriction with the liquids. When do you feel any type of restriction? I am getting worried as everything seems a bit too easy
  5. I have never stopped drinking coffee, I drink a cup of regular everyday and feel fine....
  6. JUST REMEMBER WHERE YOU ONCE WERE, AND WHEN THAT BUS PULLS UP YOU WANT TO STAY OFF IT
  7. I had to wait 3 months, you need to let the body heal from the band
  8. I would not do it without insurance... If you have any complications (leak) you want the best care you can get
  9. I have 8 days, but I really could go back after A WEEK. I am very very lucky as I dont have any pain or issues
  10. Hello, I have a BMI of 29, and I had the sleeve on Monday 12/20, my doctor did make my stomach bigger the others, he made it the size of a banana and a half, they can use different size bugiee ( i am sure I spilled that wrong) but they place this down your throat and than cut next to it, the bigger one they use the bigger your stomach will be... there are 3 different sizes I really feel great.... No pain, have not thrown up at all and have no issues drinking. I think this is due to the low BMI.... I was only approved because I had a lapband which failed
  11. I was sleeved 3 days ago, I have no pain, have no issues drinking but stomach is swollen
  12. I am 3 days out and I have no pain, I am drinking with no issues, have not thrown up, I was expecting something different. Since my BMI was only 30 I had the doctor make the stomach a little bigger, the size of an banana and a half I wonder if that has anything to do with it.
  13. Everyone is a doctor and they have no clue to feel like us....
  14. Should you be eating at only 10 days out..... I am on liquids for 2 weeks
  15. I have a low BMI (27) and was approved by insurance, But I had the lap-band which failed, so i had what they call revision sugary. I can tell you I did have trouble finding a doctor to do the sleeve with a low BMI..... It was not as easy as I thought it would be
  16. I am very curious to see how things are with being sleeved when we are a little older....
  17. When you got up to your hospital room, did you say what did i do.... How long after did you realize you did the right thing
  18. Monday 12/21/15.... I had the band and it slipped, so i am getting the sleeve. My weight today is 175 (the band worked great), I have gained 20 pounds since the band was removed.
  19. Souds great, i love to read these types of responces... How are you doing these days?
