I wonder why it is. It's happening to me too. Anyone know the technical reason why we burp more after the sleeve?

I just can't imagine why someone would want to suffer with a bypass when VSG is an option. In the worst case, VSG can be revised into a bypass. It's a no-brainer.

So, you had problems after surgery and it got better?

I'm finding that I'm lactose intolerant too. I hope it's temporary!

In my program I don't move to milk until the 10th day (which is today for me).

Me too - very weak. Trying to keep up on fluids and protein shakes.

I will start religiously using stool softener. This morning, I got some idea of what women go through in labor. Sorry if that's TMI.

I set them and click Save but the change never commits. Anyone else get this?

They gave me gas-x drops immediately when I was out of surgery.

I see so many different diet advancements. I'd appreciate to see what others' are. Follow mine ala: Day 1 - 7: Clear liquids Day 7 - 10: Add Protein shakes Day 10 - 14: Full liquids Week 3: Some mushy food (oatmeal, cream of wheat, banana, fruit) Week 4: Add well cooked veg, Beans, lo-fat cheeses Week 5: Add egg, lo-fat crackers, fresh fruit, Protein Bars Week 6: Add cooked vegetables, canned tuna, crab meat, Cereal and cereal bars Week 7: Add salads, lean ground meats

Would it show in an x-ray without taking drinking some kind of radioactive liquid?

I'm so curious to see what my stomach looks like now. I'm considering getting an X-Ray to see it (would that work?). Any ever view their sleeve somehow?

FYI - there is no dumping syndrome with the sleeve.

If it fills you up fast isn't that a good thing? That suggests to me that you'd eat less.
