I am 10/5. How are you doing? Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

It's been 3 months since my surgery. I have lost 80lbs. That's 40% of my excess weight or 21% of my starting weight. I am 6lbs away from being out of the 300s. I haven't been out of the 300s in 7 years. New year new me!! Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

I did the same thing. Lol. I was hitting the button every 8 min or whenever I remembered it was there. I don't remember most of that day, but I was feeling fiiiiiiiiine. The next day I had 2 doses of vicoden only. Third day had no pain but took a loading dose of vicoden to get in front of any pain caused by the 3 hour drive home. There was a woman i was talking with who was sleeved the same day and time as me who had a really hard time with gas and pain. I think we are two examples of extremes. Even if you have a hard time with gas pains, it's a short term issue. The weight loss and health benefits are worth it. Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

I had no gas pains at all Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

I had a model surgery. No pain meds after the 3rd day (and that was just a dose of vicoden to make the 3 hour drive easier). No gas issues or problems sleeping. Very little nausea and not one episode of vomiting. I can tolerate most foods. The only real negative reaction was to pickles. The juice from one bite (I spit it out) caused nausea for hours.

I haven't been taking PPI or antacids because I haven't had any symptoms. Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

Is this even possible? For the past couple of days I have been feeling a knawing gurgling feeling that I would have classified as hunger before surgery. Could it be hunger returning? I know that acid is sometimes confused with hunger but I haven't had a prob with acid since week 3. I have been sick for the past week, not sure if that has anything to do with it Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

I am 3 months post op tomorrow and I've lost 77lbs. I lost 25lbs in the 2 week liquid diet and 52 post op. I have had a 3 week stall and a 2 week stall which has frustrated me to no end Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

My stomach starts to gurgle (sounds like a hungry gurgle) when I am getting full. I get one, maybe two bites after that. Anything more and it's uncomfortable. Sent from my XT1021 using the BariatricPal App

I was averaging 600-750 but my bariatric nurse said 800 min and to aim for 800-1000. HW 385 SW 359 CW 308 Sleeved 10/5/16

I am so excited! After months of fighting with the insurance company, I got an email from my surgeon saying he has been approved. Now we just need to figure out when (work wise) we can schedule. HW 385 SW 359 CW 322 Sleeved 10/5/16

Consider asking your doctor about Furosemide. It also treats Fluid retention , better than Hydrochlorothiazide generally , but doesn't do as much for blood pressure. I took Hydrochlorothiazide for peripheral edema for like 4 years and it stopped working for me. It also gave me gout. But my doctor switched me to Furosemide and it really helps with the fluid retention. At least for 2 years for me. My body adapts to Water pills and requires higher doses.
