  1. So I'm 7 months out and I've lost 115 lbs...needless to say I have a little bit of loose skin, although i am actually lucky because it's not a lot. Any recommendations on home remedies, loations or exercises that help firm/tighten skin? Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  2. So I was wondering if anyone else has the issue of waking up in the middle of the night with sever pain from acid reflux? Like clock work I always wake up at 4 and I am burping and in so much pain. What do yall do? And yes I take my PPI right before bed.
  3. Everything was fine, my tummy was just emptying slow and is still a little swollen from surgery. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  4. Ive been on acid reflux meds since day one and nothing this will be the third hospitalization. They have done blood work and a CT scan and have found nothing.. doc said she will do and upper GI tomorrow, so I guess we will see what's going on then.

  6. So I take a capsule of pump inhibitor to prevent acid reflux and Gerd but I'm having a hard time taking it. Is there any other way to take it or different type of pump inhibitor yall take?
  7. Okay so I know my doctor told me to take a pump inhibitor to prevent acid reflux but I haven't taken them and I haven't had any reflux at all. Anyone else finding that they don't have acid reflux after gastric sleeve surgery?
  8. Don't be nervous! everything will be okay, when you wake up from surgery you will think to yourself "it's already over". I was nervous too but there was no reason. Good luck to you Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  9. That same thing happened to me with Protein shakes. My doctor told me to try carnation instant Breakfast the sugar free or lite one with skim milk and that did the trick. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  10. The IUD is amazing, and yeah there are people that have had complications from it. But you will be having a lot more complications if you get pregnant within a year of having the sleeve. Birth control pills cause weight gain and after surgery pills are the easiest to get down. I would suggest the IUD, the procedure takes like 15 min and you just need to rest the rest of the day after getting it placed. If you decided you want kids all you do is get it taken out and bam! You can start baby making. Lol Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  11. It's just when I get neasious, and it's not painful, it's just uncomfortable. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  12. So, I keep getting this fuzzy gross feeling in my sturnm and no matter what I drink it doesn't go away. Anyone have this problem? Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  13. I just had mine done a week ago and I remember having all of the same thoughts, it almost gave me a cloister phobic feeling. After surgery I was fine, but taking small sips and having gas definitely takes getting use to. Not to worry. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  14. Okay awesome, just making sure I'm not broken. Lol Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App
  15. So I was wondering if anyone has the issue of thier nose running after they eat anything. I'm about a week post op from surgery and I'm finding this to be a bit weird.
