Thank you so much for letting me know . So after the month what is the diet like ? What foods can you have and what foods can you not have ?

at one month you can eat try most of the foods except junk food, sodas, or anything like that, but i have tried rice, spicy sauce, tortillas but for me everything i try goes down fine and have had no problems.

I started this journey over a year ago, and I still haven't went through with it. I've started and stopped 3 times and I'm completely petrified. I don't want to go through life hating myself like I do now. I want a husband and beautiful children and to be a hot mom. Heck, I want to be a hot woman. I'm 19 and around 340 and I've actually lost like 50 pounds this year just bc I'm busy and way more active and never eat.. (College life) my dad and grandmother both went through the top surgery where they take out intestines and everything (I forget the name) but they have problems with diarrhea and my dad has awful awful gas.. Plus I don't want to tie myself down to taking so many Vitamins and getting sick if I don't eat Protein. I'm way overweight right now, but I'm relatively healthy. The worst thing I deal with is PCOS which is another reason losing weight is a big deal for me. My insurance has already approved, I'm just so scared and don't want to ruin my life before it starts when it comes to going out with friends and eating and I definitely don't want bad diarrhea problems or anything like that. Idk guys I'm so lost and I just found this site last night. HELP!!!

Your so young, if you have seriously tried to lose weight and cant. The sleve is a great TOOL. It dosnt make you lose weight you work with it. It might be harder because of your age (going out etc). But at your age and weight you need to do something.. I only take 2 Flintstone Vitamins a day. Have gotten of most other meds and feel so much better. Have gone out to eat and have become a "cheep date" bonus at your age. You can't drink for the first year and no soda pop. But you'll have so much fun doing new things it won't matter. I hope this has helped a little. Everyone's story is different, but we all want to be healthy and who's we had done it sooner. Good luck.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
