  3. Surgery in May. Doing well. Lost 55 pounds so far!!! Been at a stall for a couple weeks- so I tried extra hard to get in my Protein and fluids and I've gained almost 3 pounds. I trying not to flip out. Curious if anyone can relate? Thank you Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  9. I had surgery around the same time as you. I was really excited with week 1 and I haven't lost any weight week 2. So there it is - huge investment and huge change and it's still going to take time. I know for me the sooner I accept this - the better will be. Good luck hang in there!

  13. I'm so sorry- the tightness in your chest (although) may seem strange is a feeling people experience at the top of their stomach (according to my Surgeon) so I would think perhaps you are having access inflammation at that point - the cause would be another speculation at this point. Really the only advice I would give if it really becomes bothersome just go to the ER and don't wait. It could be a problem better helped sooner rather than later? I had surgery the same day and I'm returning to I guess my new normal and although I have some discomfort I'm not experiencing pain much anymore. Speedy recovery and well wishes Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  14. Ugh the shakes- the flavor I'm over for sure- I don't have any helpful advice since I'm a newbie but I feel ya! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  15. At @@JustSleeved I do!! Thank you for the above responses - I literally just asked the same question- I don't feel full and I feel hungry - maybe just need more time to heal and find our new normal?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  16. I really anticipated I would get more clear signals when to stop and how fast to eat. I've never thrown up but can easily eat a cup of sugar free pudding or half cup of a Soup. I notice when eating meals I pause and wait for hiccup and then stop. But I don't feel "full" and I often feel "hungry" I swear my stomach even growls - I think I fall into that dreaded is my pouch too big - have I sprung a leak??? Would I know? I know everyone has different criteria but at 9 days post op I'm allowed soups- and some mushy textures after 3 Protein drinks and of course stay away from sugars and such Thank you for your advice in advance- other than a raging allergic reaction to steri strips and insomnia and 2 days of volcanic acid reflux (I feel this has been better than anticipated) Starting weight 270 Total loss 27 lbs Post Op loss 11 pounds Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  18. I get conflicting information from professionals if I need to change my adderall to instant Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  19. Sleeved on 25th. What are your daily Fluid and Protein goals? Also I've been noticing this strange pain at the top of my stomach - like an acid like gurgle??? Can you relate? Is this normal? I open one capsule 2 times a day and mixed into pudding for acid control Thank you for your help! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  20. I was sleeved that day as well. Milk of magnesia really helped me - I crapped myself :/ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
