    3.5 Months with Fotos

    Congratulations! You are doing awesome
  2. I love reading your post. You crack me up.
  3. I was so thrown off by it all I don't remember her name but it was the physician assistant at Dr. Coates office in Modesto, Ca. I'm hoping to see Dr. coates soon so I can explain to him what happened at that visit.
  4. It was truly mind blowing. They specialize in gastric bypass. So I guess that's what she's used to. No excuse though. But I do hope I can get a hold of the dr. and let him know what happened to me there. Plus I paid $125 to hear it.

    Down in the dumps

    I have the same fears. The day after surgery (feb. 11) I weighed 213.8 today 19 days later I weigh 202.2 but a few days ago I was 201.3 I don't understand. I feel like I can eat too much. I feel hungry still. I'm on a ppi. So I don't get it. very frustrating but more scared. What wuil it take for me to lose weight.

Message me and i'll give you her number.
  9. so on day 7 I was allowed to add yogurts so I did. Couldn't even finish half. Now today I just finished the whole thing in like 20 minutes. Is that ok? I feel like I shouldn't be able to eat that much. I was afraid I wouldn't feel full either as I was finishing it up. But i'm starting to get full feeling now. I hope I didn't mes something up. If you haven't noticed from my other posts i'm a worry wort. Lol
  10. I'm only 12 days out and feel the same way. Others have told me it's slider food that go down easier. But i'm worried too. Hopefully when wer go to real good we will see a difference.
  11. I went to dr.kelly in mexico and it was great.no problems. Pre fear but post content.

    One Week Post-Op

    I'm having the same gears. I'm 12 days out. And I can eat 6 ounces of yogurt already and pureed foods. Other sleevers have said that it's slider foods that we can take in easier. But I just had yogurt and still feel hungry. Idk if there is away around this or what it means
  13. soi i'm 11 days out and today I ate a few spoons of runny oatmeal and 1/2 cup of coffee for breakfast. Then no snack and at lunch I had like 6 ounces of runny mash potatos. Why can I eat so much.when all of you guys get full offa couple of bites of anything evena few months out. Am I eating too much. I know i'm not getting enough liquids so i'll work on that.

    6 Month Post-op Carb-free Diet?

    I have had baby food but only the fruits. Not looking forward to trying any others.
  18. I am 10 days post op. I ate some cream of wheat this morning and had a little protein mix with it. Some coffee. Now my back hurts. I'm getting random shots of pain in my back. it might just be normal body pains but i'm on high alert from the surgery. Had anyone experienced this. I have no fever but i'm still worried it may be a leak. Or a slow leak.any info is helpful. Has anyone experienced a leak our a slow leak that got worse over time. That can explain how it feels. I was cash pay in mexico and I don't have insurance. I found a sleeve surgeon out here to do my follow ups but my 1st appt is the 2nd. And he doesn't do leak tests. Just blood tests.
