THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY

there is one thing I haven't seen on here..... the negatives.....I wanna learn from others mistakes or weigh in on logic when I go to make decisions influence my thought to help me not make a mistake.....Anyone doing this surgery for the second time? What led them to doing it over? does your stomach stretch over time? I can swallow a huge mouth full of liquid on three weeks out is that normal? I have been really focused on drinking a lot of fluids. I had a packed half a cup of refried beans is that ok?

GoneRogue, there are posts out on the forum regarding people who have had to have a second sleeve surgery. Make sure you use the search feature and have the selection to forums and search for resleeve or a similar term. There are also several posts by individuals that state they have the ability to take in "what they believe to be a large amount of liquids", but once they move to more solid foods they feel much fuller and it takes a smaller amount to reach that feeling.

There is a lot of information on the site in various places so I am very confident you will find most, if not all, of the information you are seeking.

I am in the pre-surgery stage, new to the sleeve but not new to weight loss since I currently have a lap band.

Good luck.

I never even saw this. Well I have a new sleeve and I'm on a liquid diet. I have no idea how solids are. Like the poster said..I'm sure eating.solid food is.really different
