And the comments are still coming WOW :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:. the best thing for me it to just laugh at all the negative. FOr the ones that have inboxed me I will keep you all posted. They said I can pick up my pictures on friday and then I have my second opinion on the 6th.

Keep your chin up hun and find a way to figure this out! Don't let people get to you. It's not good for you when you're already stressed out about the process.

I call BS on the OP original post. Point. Blank. To the Period! Lol I don't come here necessarily for support or to give it. I like to read other people accounts...follow their journeys. Sometimes I just like to be plain old nosey. But If this site is a persons ONLY source Of support, they are in for a rude awakening. That's like someone who is socially inept seeking moral support on Facebook or twitter. Bottom line...don't come on Here expecting EVERYONE to play the violin while you tell your sad sob "story" and in this case...a lie

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

To all the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys wannabes who think they've got this mystery all figured out, you should probably shut your yaps because you really have no idea what's going on here. None of us do. Pretending you do and using your questionable hypotheses as an excuse to kick the OP around is pretty sad.

LasiWobs, I hope you get some answers on the 6th.

Does ur roommate have the same incision scars as you??? Just curious my sister and I were sleeved the same day 45 min apart by the same surgeon Dr Zane @Kaiser. Everything is identical. So just wondering if you two have discussed symptoms or side effects or ANYTHING? ?

Why do always have to be a Debbie Downer?!?! Iggy ??? Most of your comments on people are negative ! Lighten up and enjoy life a bit !!!!

Iggy, like many others is sharing her viewpoint and her opinion. Last I checked that isn't wrong to do. I am new to this forum and its really sad to see so much negativity. Lets just follow this: if you don't have anything nice/ helpful to say then don't say anything at all. ????

Ladiwobs,

What's your intake on a typical day? Like today, what have your ate or drank since waking up?

Maybe we can start there and try to figure this out with you

I think what has happened to OP is unfortunate and I could really care less either way if she's telling the truth, but this site is the only group of people I know with a sleeve. My family tries to be as supportive as possible, but when I have my surgery in April, it will be my only VSG support from the POV of other sleevers. Since I have joined this group I have read so many people be SO rude and down right hateful. If you can't go back and remember how you felt in those first days pre-op and post-op, then maybe it's time you move on.

I apologize if I have ever come off as rude. I must add though, this whole issue is so strange whatever the situation is I'm soooo curious to know what has gone on. Regardless of fault or circumstances ... I think we'll learn something for sure.

ESPECIALLY if a dr is at fault.. But I also hate to see any professional trashed without more info.

Ok, lying not not gaining 20lbs in 7 weeks is wrong, even if you didn't get the sleeve. There's something bigger going on here.

I would be questioning the doc if you really had no pain and have no issues eating or anything because I have yet to find one person who was lucky enough to have that happen! Not saying it can't happen, just would make me question everything.

Like I said, gaining 20lbs in 7 weeks is not right. There could be another medical reason for it. Have you had blood tests etc?

What type of Protein are you drinking 120g of a day? Are you tracking what you eat?

If all of the above are in order and you can HONESTLY say you have done everything you know how to do then there is something else going on.

I was told I could eat more than 4oz but was told

I shouldn't so I weigh and measure everything I eat. I also eat 4-6 times a day.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
