  1. I woke up in the recovery room STARVING . I am 18 days out and feel ZERO restriction. I even advanced diet stages faster so that maybe I’ll feel full but nothing. I am very concerned.
  2. For that price I didn’t need to get surgery. Could have dieted without it.
  3. Hi. I am 6 days out from Surgery and have been having hunger pains since I woke up from surgery. No matter what I drink or what soups I have I can’t get rid of the hunger. Has anyone ever heard of this or had such an experience?
  4. Hi all. I am 5 days out of the gastric sleeve surgery and I am STARVING!! From everything I’ve heard and everyone that I have spoken to this is definitely not normal. Has anyone experienced this?
  5. Hi Guys, I am at a BMI of 40 so I don’t need anything drastic but I don’t want the sleeve because of the potential regain. My surgeon said that he can do the SIPS for me with 350cm of bowel instead of 300. He said this should take away the risk of malnutrition and frequent bowel movement but still help with the regain issue. Any one here experience this or hear of this ?
  6. Scheduled for surgery 1/10/24. I was told my Dr’s office that I will only need to be on a liquid diet for 24 hours before surgery. I’ve always heard that it’s a week or 10 days. Wondering if anyone has ever heard this?
