  6. Could also be a thyroid problem. Wouldn't hurt to get your levels tested! HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 195 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  7. Hello all! My surgery was 6/27, and I was put on solids a week sooner than planned due to severe nausea that pills wouldn't touch. It helped tremendously. I have no pain when eating, only sometimes a slight discomfort once it hits my stomach when I'm full. I only eat eggs, chicken, tuna, some cooked veggies, and only tonight had shrimp. I'm worried that I don't get enough protein in during the day. I can only eat about 4 or 5 bites before being full, anymore makes me past the point. I don't drink water afterwards for an hour at least, and I've been working a lot harder to get water in during the day. Has anyone had this issue or worry a month out?

  8. I mean it never concerns me like hospitalization wise, it's just an odd sensation that goes away fairly quickly. HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 195 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  9. Hmm don't think it's dangerous do you? I've been worried HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 195 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  10. I can't tell what the pain that comes in waves are. It feels like, before my surgery starving pains, like if I didn't eat for the whole day and my stomach would growl and hurt and I'd be so hungry! This time, my stomach doesn't growl. I don't know if I should be worried of this pain or not. It brings a slight nausea feeling with it each time. HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 200 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  11. Unfortunately I live about 5 or 6 states away from my surgeon lol. I won't see him for another year or so. I have my primary care but I'm not sure what to really say.. maybe I'm overreacting as I can't find anyone who suffers from this like I do. HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 200 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  12. Oh my god... I'm only 20... I hope not.. HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 200 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  13. What are some good things to order at Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks for us that are sleeved? Craving some coffee! HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 200 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  14. I'm wondering if anyone has had heat bother them more than normal? After I was sleeved, heat has been nearly making me pass out! I'm worried as I'm going on a beach vacation in 3 weeks. I can drink plenty of water and eat (very little but solids).
  15. Can someone help me with figuring out vitamins? I currently take a flinstones multivitamin and a biotin. Lately the flinstones ones are tasting AWFUL so I tried the one a days... even worse!! Now I'm stuck with this iron like taste in my mouth. I've noticed the vitamins make me nauseous as well. Anyone else? HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  16. You're doing much more than me! It seems I'm extremely heat sensitive now HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  17. Oh I didn't even notice lol. Once I saw 27th of... and also I just assumed it was the same day HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  18. Yes. He just gave me more meds for nausea. I told him I'm having a hard time getting in enough food, and he said "I'll think about moving you to solids". I have 1 1/2 weeks until I can have solids unless he moves me forward. Just nervous I won't be able to hold them down either. HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  19. Okay... I'm doing everything my surgeon has told me to do, so I guess I'm doing everything right as well huh? HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  20. I wish I could have food. I can only have applesauce and pudding as "food" as I can't have creamy soups or yogurt... bad dairy problems now HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  21. I drink every 10 minutes. Sips of water only. HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  22. I had the sleeve done 6/27, and now every day, I'm dizzy, nauseous, and just exhausted all day HW - 230 SW - 215 CW- 201 GW - 130 Height 5'5"
  23. Yesterday I felt great. Today not so much. They gave me jello and Italian ice to try and keep down but it made me extremely nauseous and hurting. I'm extremely tired too. HW - 230 SW - 215 GW - 120 Height 5'5"
  24. Yes. I had a lot of problems with it but tomorrow my parents will be at the hospital with me to help me get back walking. HW - 230 SW - 215 GW - 120 Height 5'5"
  25. It was funny. I told them I was having an anxiety attack and they said "oh we'll give you a little Valium (and boy did that burn going through my iv in my hand..) and then I was still crying, still anxious. So we went to the OR. I don't even remember them giving me anything else haha HW - 230 SW - 215 GW - 120 Height 5'5"
