  1. What brand of daily vitamins are y'all taking?
  2. No I'm not eating fast or hard foods. It hurts from when I start eating until I finish. Sometimes it hurts a little and sometimes a lot. It feels like a sharp/burning pain. It goes away after about 2 min but the next bite hurts again.
  3. I was sleeved July 26, down 48 lbs. my only complaint is stomach pain every time I eat. Does anyone else have this problem?
  4. I am 8 1/2 weeks out and have lost 31#. I have been at a stand still for 12 days. I actually gained 3 lbs within that time. I am getting frustrated because all I eat is protein. What else should I do? I don't want to gain weight again!
  5. I had the Lapland done in 2010.... Gained 20#. Sleeved July 2012 and it's the best thing I have ever done. In 8 weeks, I'm down 31#.
  6. Hi there! I was sleeved July 26th.. Down 27#. It was rough the first week or two, but no regrets now! I'd do it all over again! Congrats to all of you on your weight loss!!

  8. Hi. I am 5 days post op. I had my sleeve done at Ochsner in New Orleans, La. My incision pain is fine. I had buyer's remorse for the first 2-3 days, but feeling much better now... Today, feeling a little lightheaded and hungry or is it acid? I would love to hear everyone's story 1 week post op. What are you all eating/drinking? I am definitely having trouble with protein intake.
  9. Hi Everyone.... I had my sleeve done on July 26th.... 5 days post op. I had to stay in the hospital 2 nights due to nausea/vomiting. I was very depressed until yesterday... thinking "What did I do to myself" ... I definitely had buyers remorse. Today is a much better day with my mood. I am starting to feel hungry or is it acid? I am going to start Prilosec today because my insurance refused to pay for Prevacid.

  12. Glad to see everyone is doing well since their surgery. I am doing very well, only lingering incisional pain at the site of the port. Not too bad though. I see the doctor on Wednesday and hope to advance my diet. I am hungry!!!
  13. I really like Dr. Wooldridge! He is good looking! LOL!!! The entire staff is extremely nice.... I am soooo glad I decided to have my surgery there!
  14. I had my surgery on 7/22 in New Orleans... Just wondering if anyone here is from my area.
  15. My surgery date was 7/22 also! I am not having very much incisional pain but the gas is most aggravating. I am hungry though! I am eating creamy Soups, broth, popsicles and I will start pudding tomorrow. I was told clear/full liquids for 2 weeks then advance to soft... never told anything about a puree stage. I would love to have more selection though!!! Congrats to everyone and hope all is well!!
  16. Hi Everyone!!! I am doing so much better today. Walked around in the yard this afternoon. The gas pain is still there but not bad at all! I have been hungry though. I started my protein shakes today and that has helped. Everyday will get better!!!!!
  17. Hello everyone! I am finally home. I had to stay 2 nights because of epigastric pain and nausea. I haven't been able to eat anything since the night before my surgery. Thankfully, today, I am able to eat SF popsicles. I think the pain is more gas!! How is everyone else doing? I hope all is well!!
