I'm still having gas pains also. not terrible but annoying. like the kind where you force yourself to burp, not a real burp.

Congrats on the weightloss. I've been up and moving around since I got back from Mexico. I'm going back to work tomorrow (I have a desk job). I also have annoying gas pains. Today at church I forgot all about my sleeve and took part in communion. Luckily I didn't have a problem with sleevie.

Just keep up the good work and stay hydrated.

25lbs is great!! get rest my friend !! 3 more days for me! I am going to lose my mind!! lol

Congrats on the loss!!!! I am also 7 days post op and haven't weighed yet.... hope all is going well

i had my sleeve on nov 16th and the gas pain was horrible in my chest never thought it would go away but as soon as i just let the burping take its course i have been fine you will get to the point (if you are like me) where you don't care where you are or who is around you will just let it out just so it wil not hurt anymore and then you feel better.....i have started eatting i just chew chew chew my food then swollow it i dont puree it i was not told to but i dont have a nurtionist i wish i did becuase that would help alot. i have noticed this weekend that i drink more and faster with out problems but at first the drinking was horrible oh yeah and i do know they say dont eat the tomatoe soup i found out the hard way it hurt me so bad i guess the acids in it so becareful.....do you or anyone reading this have problems with diarreah i hate it!!!

Yes, I have had problems with diarreah... I didn't know if it was normal or not. I may ask the doctor about it just to be sure. Also, I couln't get much of the soup down, just a couple of tiny bites. I don't know if it'll do to well or not. Good luck with your healing!

Congratulations....you r on a terrific road. I had my surgery almost 6 months ago.....down 104# this morning. A good thing for your gas pain.....heating pad! It has become my best friend. Since losing the body fat, I am cold more and snuggle with it often. I ate alot of popcicles, course with it being winter, it could make you cold. Just make sure you are getting lots and lots of protein, because by 3months out you will start noticing a little hair lose. Lots and lots of shakes. My only problem is I'm 20-30# away from goal and I added some carbs and I keep losing. I want to know how to stop. As for anyone with the loose bowel syndrome..........yogurt! Greek is the best it has more protein. Good Luck everyone and Merry Christmas!

Congrats on your weight loss. I soooo know how you are feeling. My first 2 weeks were so so, After the gas subsided I was able to start resuming my daily activities. My best advice to you is "go slow". You might feel good one day and blah the next. Remember, you had surgery not that long ago and your body is still mending. Keep us informed how your doing and again congrats!!
