Ok since my surgery on 2-20 I have been insatiably thirsty. I have heard before that when you feel hungry all the time your brain is trying to tell you that you need fluids. I just want to chug a gallon of ice cold Water. And I can't, it hurts just to take a few sips. When i try to eat other foods i have to force myself because all i really crave is water. Am i alone? Does anyone else have this crazy craving for water? hw - 260 Sw -250 Cw - 234

So I was sleeved 2-20-17. Yay! I had a rought time in the hospital. Barely drank anything im still having a hard time getting used to my new pouch. When I lay down it feel like all the contents of my stomach wants to come up my throat. And the gas omg. I dont have a problem down south as much as i do up north. The belching does not feel good either, it kinda hurts i with i did have to pass gas lol. Does this go away or will i forever have gas?

Honestly if you don't think you can even do a pre op diet for 2 weeks how are you going to change your lifestyle, FOREVER. They do surgery on your stomach not your mind. You will still have cravings afterward. Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App

If you are on a 6 month dr supervised diet prior to the surgery. They do that to see if you can lose that weight without surgery. Yes if you do that diet and you cant lose it ins will approve you. There is not a max weight limit to be approved, but there is a minimum. Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App

Shopping is such an issue for me. I buy the 2x tshirts from the men isle in walmart because i wouldn't be caught dead showing my curves. And i have 2 pairs of jeans that i loved. But as most of you know when you have big thighs they rub together and wear holes in the crotch area. So i have been sewing Patches on my jeans so i dont have to go shopping for a new pair. That is how bad i hate shopping. I cant wait till Feb so i can get my WLS and throw my clothes out. Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App

Can i ask you about excess skin. I weigh the same as you on did post op. I worry about excess or baggy skin. You look gorgeous! What did you do to limit any excess skin. Anyone sugestions and experiences would be appreciated. Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App

My surgeon told me that they dont even offer the band anymore. There are complication that can happen that require another surgery and i sometimes ins doesnt cover it. It has nothing to do with compliance to your diet and the competence of the surgeon. Plus the results just arent as good as with the sleeve. Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App
