December 5, 201213 yr I was sleeved on 5/23 by Dr. Umbach & everything went great! I'm only 19 lbs. from my goal weight but I never could have done this without the surgery.
December 5, 201213 yr Hi, My name is Dave and I am a newbie. I am just a few days in. I was sleeved on 11/30/2012 by Dr. Umbach . I didn't know about this site until today. I was looking for information about if it is normal to have a lower belly sickening feeling, and how long it last. I have been very lucky so far because I have had no pain, just that low sickening feeling, and I sleep a lot.
December 6, 201213 yr I'm here in vegas was sleeved 12~ 15~ 11 by Dr soong and Dr Atkins they did a awesome job.

December 6, 201213 yr Hi, My name is Dave and I am a newbie. I am just a few days in. I was sleeved on 11/30/2012 by Dr. Umbach . I didn't know about this site until today. I was looking for information about if it is normal to have a lower belly sickening feeling, and how long it last. I have been very lucky so far because I have had no pain, just that low sickening feeling, and I sleep a lot. I am still always tired and I am 4 weeks out and have been nauseous for 4 weeks. I also have pain in my throat and stomach when eating and was told by my regular dr that I haven't given myself time to recoup. I had my surgery on a Wednesday, ended up having to stay overnight, took the rest of that week off, had the weekend off, that Monday was a holiday and I went back to work that Tuesday. But Dr Umbach and everyone in his office is great!!!! I am trying to take some steps backwards and drink more shakes instead of introducing more food because I really don't want to mess this up. I lost 20 lbs the first 2 weeks and nothing since then. But I've seen alot about the dreaded 3 week stall. Mine has turned into a 3 & 4 week stall. I've tried to start working out a bit but was told by my regular dr that it is too soon. Which is confirmed by my weak and sore tummy when I do workout. I walk everyday at work on my breaks. I'm still trying to do some things; work my arms and legs, but I'm trying to take things slower. I have really been pushing myself too much.
December 6, 201213 yr Thanks Shelly, I didn't know about the three week stall. But I will watch for it, for me I know it going to be a long hall. right now I just worried if/when I will return to feeling some what normal, with the nauseous and fatigue
December 8, 201213 yr Author I'm at the dreaded 3 week stall....I have lost 14 pounds since my surgery on 11/21 and I'm stuck now!! I'm sure it's because I'm actually eating now....but I'm ready for the scale to start moving!! I'm about ready to throw it outside
