Hey how was it? Who was your surgeon? Hope you're recovering well.

I have mostly great days. I had acid reflux issues the first two weeks but doctor gave meds and advised to sleep upright for now. Also nausea for the last couple days. I think when I was told about chewing slow and taking smaller bite I took it lightly at first. But you really have to learn your body all over again and really really slow down. I really wish I knew that I would be so lethargic, as I'm a fairly on the go kind of person. Since my pre-op diet, I've been lacking energy. But I am told it will get better by latest month 3 of post-op.

Hey I've had my good days and my bad days but over all i think I'm doing ok. My surgeon was Dr. Urbach, I have my follow up appointment on January 7th so waiting anxiously to see how much I've lost cause i really just trust their scale but if it matches up to what my scale says than I'll start weighing myself at home.

Ok well I hope your 1st month goes well and good luck on your first month checkup. I know what you mean about the scales.< /p>

That's good! Same here, occasional days where I feel nauseous or have gas bubbles in my esophagus but usually passed when I walk around and get moving a bit. I'm just really taking it day by day.

Thank you! Giving it my best shot. Have a bit of nausea and gas but hanging in there.

[Ivanova8 77]

@@bigbattynatty Are you taking anything for the nausea and gas? Have you checked in with your doctor's office about it? I hear it happens fairly often and there's probably something they can give you for it or that you can buy over the counter.

I hope you feel better soon.

[bigbattynatty 20]

Yes I bought a tea at the herbal food store yesterday to help with the nausea and gas. Giving it some time to work.
