  2. I had that too and also didn't really have much of a bowel movement for a few days at time. I was used to having a bowel movement daily before the surgery. Now almost four months in, I am having normal bowel movements again. I also had bouts of constipation which I wasn't used to. Definitely call the doctor though and at least tell them about this. Good luck.
  3. Yes I have had similar experiences like that. Don't worry it is nothing to worry about. Good luck
  4. I have gone to NY bariatric group and seen Dr. Angstadt while I was in the hospital right after my surgery. I had Dr. Garber as my surgeon. All I can say is the whole group there are terrific! I go to the support groups at St. Charles with Dr. Angstadt he is great and very supportive. I have lost 34.5 pounds since April and now also going to a personalized gym which Dr. Angstadt also attends. Love the whole bunch..feeling great and happy...good luck in your journey. Highly recommend them.

  7. I am 3 days post op and have no pain, but I keep spitting up foamy liquid. I feel good otherwise. Can't really drink much without this foamy stuff though. Any one else have this?
