I was the same way post surgery, I NEVER had a problem keeping any food down, what is being said is the absolute truth. The liquids slide through even if it is a Protein Shake. The yogurt may stay with you for awhile but not long as it will slide right through as well. I had the same problem and thought that my sleeve was too large until I started doing some research and discovered what many here have told you. Once you start eating solid food you will QUICKLY discover how small your stomach is. Once you eat some real food you will see! I can only eat about 4oz over 30 minutes.

I felt the same way after surgery. I am still convinced my sleeve is too big. I was starving the day after surgery. I am still hungry often and it is not f*cking head hunger. It is legitimate hunger. I thought this surgery was supposed to reduce ghrelin production?
Oh well, still glad to be down 45 pounds in 8 weeks.

I am pleased to say that I have reached my goal, yaaayyy. My goal weight was 150 lbs but I weighed myself this morning and I am 149.8 lbs. This has been a hard journey mentally but for me( many of you know I have gone thru a divorce as well ). My starting weight was 242lbs, day of surgery 12/5/16 I was 219 lbs, and 8 months later I am 149.8 lbs. 7 lbs away from almost losing 100 lbs. I feel so good right now about myself. Not just because of how I look but how I feel inside. I'm starting to love me flaws and all. I am working on the mental side of things with prayer and supplication. God is a healer and I'm trusting him to keep me. I thank all of you on this site for your support , it has been epic on this journey. I so truly appreciate you. The encouragement I received from total strangers has far outweighed what I received from family and friends. Thank you again. Hope u like the pics.

so ladies I was informed from my provider that if the prenatal pills have all the required amount of of Vitamins that we need daily there's no problem in taking them soooooo relieved

Are you going to tell us what your eating. Cant tell what your doing with no info
What has your surgeon said ? Are you drinking enough Fluid?

omg we are in the same boat I got sleeved 7/24/2017 and lost 10 pounds the first week but gained 3 and im stuck in the the same weight for the past 4 weeks

Hello all! I was sleeved on March 15, 2017. The main reason I had surgery was to try to jump start my cycles, hopefully ovulate and possibly get pregnant. So far I've lost 27 lbs in 6 weeks, kind of a slow loss but it's okay. No one said this would be easy.
I have always had non-existent periods. Sometimes even Progesterone wouldn't start my cycle. I've literally went years without a period. I started this weight loss journey at 382 lbs, day of surgery was 346.8 and my current weight is 318.2. Does anyone have an experience with their period regulating after surgery? How much weight did you lose before something happened? Almost 60 lbs down since HW and still nothing for me. I was always told by doctors that if i lost the weight, my cycle would return to normal... how long should it take? Any advice or success stories are appreciated. Thank you for your time!

Yes is been the same for 3 weeks and pcos is polycistic ovarian syndrome is s hormonal problem that makes you gain weight and have abnormal periods

Surgery is went great thank goodness everything smooth and for now no pain

Hello, I'm 5 days post op (recovering well)...I'm trying to figure out different ways to get Protein in. I have the Premier Protein Waters and Protein20...Anyone know of any concentrated powders to add to Water to make fruity drinks. Similar to fruit Drink Concentrate? Thanks!!

Congratulations!!!! I totallyagree with the nurse who held your hand at OR, this is one of the best decisions I've made for myself. I'm 7 months out at I'm almost at my goal weight. I feel so good about myself!!! I feel much more energetic and happy to be able to do things!! If I could go back in time, I would choose the sleeve over again in a heartbeat. Good luck to you! Loved to read you. Please keep us posted!

Congratulations!!

Welcome to the losers bench! !!
