  1. Everyone is doing well. That's awesome. Letgojo, are you using a good scale? Also are you having bowel movements?
  2. Had my procedure on the 27th. Down 20 lbs so far. Puked a few times from eating too much. For semi solid food, 3 to 4 teaspoons makes me feel full.
  3. Is there a resource for recipes? Especially the mushy phase?
  4. So your body is used to making stomach Acids at a high level and needs to adjust to the smaller stomach and lack of hunger. So for awhile your body will continue to produce excess acids which will make u feel like it's grumbling and extra acid can slow healing. I'm not a doc but talk to yours and see if you can start taking over the counter med, protonics, xantac something to inhibit stomach acid production. My doc is making all his patients use stomach acid meds for at least 90 days. My doc has done 4000 procedures btw. He's very knowledgeable.
  5. Are you taking stomach acid meds? What you might be feeling is the stomach acid in your now smaller stomach. I felt that I'm the hospital and 2 days po.
  6. Are you folks who are dealing with gas having bowel movements? If you are not having b.m.s then try stool softeners, my doc recommended me to use them.
  7. I slept in a comfy lazy boy for the 1st few days at home.
  8. Well it feels good to know I'm not alone. I felt depressed for the 1st 2 days, pretty bad, felt like I made a mistake. My outlook has changed since then. This forum has helped a lot by reading and seeing I'm not alone. Cold liquids cause me to have stomach pains, not sure if pain is a good word, it feels like preop when your super hungry, like a strong grumble. I can eat but I have to eat slowly, like really slowly. A yogurt can take me 15min.
  9. Anyone sleeve the week of 6/25? I had my surgery on 6/27. How are you all doing? I'm at the phase of eating mushy foods and tolerating protein shakes. Definately a learning process. Down 7ish lbs. Curious about everyone else. Btw Dr wizman was the surgeon at coral springs mc. Randy
