  1. I had my surgery 1/19/16. Down 39lbs since starting preop diet 1/5/16. I having trouble with my stomach and eating. I'm still on puréed food my doc wants me to go back to fluids. I'll eat my meal then an hour or so later my stomach feels empty and feels like it's churning. At times it makes me feel a little queasy. I'm not sure why this is happening. Sometimes I can't take my vitamins or drink my protein.
  2. Hi. Had my surgery 1/19. I am on Prilosec daily. Even though I have my meal about an hour or so later my stomach feels so empty and feels like it's churning. At times it makes me feel alittle queasy. Did anyone else experience anything like this?
  3. I am a nurse and planning on taking 7 weeks or so.
  4. Constipation!!!! I am 3.2 weeks out. I have never been constipated in my life. This is incredibly annoying. I'm sure it's bc I'm not taking in enough water... Get a stool softener like Colace.
  5. I have very little pain or discomfort with my c-sections . I have the sleeve yesterday the 19th, and the gas pain was horrible. The 5 small cuts are not causing me much discomfort but the gas on day 1 and most of day 2 was killer. Now that the gas has passed I'm having some stomach spasms but they are tolerable

  7. The second day wasn't too bad. I had some broth with a tiny bit of seasoning in it and it was good!!!

  12. My advice, Don't tell too many people.
  13. I think you have to listen to your own head. You know what's good for you. Who cares what they think! Love yourself!
  14. Hi, I am Linda. I'm 53. I live in NJ. I am a nurse. I've worked in labor and delivery for almost 30 years. I have 2 sons 28 and 23. I am married to a wonderful guy for alittle over 5 years now.
