Hi! I would like the list as well. My address is sudistefille@gmail.com

What are your stats?? And thank you! @@kclaws Here are my stats SW: 234 CW: 195 GW: 155

You look great! Today is my 3 month mark too!! Congrats!

April 7 for me as well. Down 30lbs. Slow and steady.

I am 2 1/2 weeks post op and am not current "able" to eat out and nor am I missing it. I'm a band to sleeve revision so I'm pretty comfortable eating out. I've been eating low carb, high protein for awhile so it doesn't elicit attention during business lunches or dinner. Only a my husband, mom, kids and aunt knew about my band and the same remains true for this surgery. Occasionally, it is uncomfortable at on site corporate work celebrations, where you don't know what the menu will be and it's usually quite decadent. This is hard not because of my will but because the pressure! I don't give in but it's just tiring. (We have ALOT of corporate "celebrations) lol

I'm 1 week out. Down 10lbs. Getting liquids in but still have nagging back pain (gas). Walking more and trying to stay moving without overdoing it. Quite lonely now because hubby is back to work. My biggest struggle I would say right now is the flood of emotions. I know it's due to the surgery but I am a click away from a 'cry' at any moment. I'll be glad when that passes.

Be careful! I purchased the new Swanson's infused broths and thought this would certainly break up the monotony of the liquid phase. Yesterday I finally was ready to try one-Thai finger. WOW it is not an essence of flavor, they are seasoned=spicy! At least for me! I suffered briefly with heartburn after that one sip. So back to basics for me. The infused broths will be great for cooking when I am beyond the phase!

Thanks everyone! I am truly hoping this a a rebirth! I am appreciating the time to really focus on me. Savoring each sip, experience, & day!

Post op Day 6 and it's my BIRTHDAY!! Steadily getting in my liquids. Mild nausea and gas pains but no show stoppers. I'm band to sleeve and can say I feel so much better this time around than when my band was installed in 2011. Taking it one day at a time and staying hopeful!!

I'm finally home. Concentrating on getting liquids in, managing pain and moving around.

My surgery is today. Band to sleeve revision. Sitting in opt now...waiting. ????

Hi AmyH33, I have been experiencing this so much lately. I even tried sipping using a tbsp measuring spoon and it does not matter the amount, I still burp and then the all quick spasm. Has anyone figured out what causes this. I am not 'eating' because I am only 11 days post op and still on liquids, so I can't figure out what the deal is.

So I'm 11 days post op and yesterday I a different feeling. I went to work and boy I can admit I should probably still be out. I know some other have gone back to work after 4 days, but we are all different. In my case, my job requires alot of engagement. Talking, meetings, etc. Although I spend some time sitting, the rest is meetings, where I am presenting information. Long story short, I was not physically or mentally ready to go back to work this week. And to top if all off, yesterday I had the worse burning sensation in my stomach all day. I even had sugar free Popsicles to offset the discomfort. Should I be worried? I was taking Nexium for reflux prior to my surgery but was told not to take it anymore. Besides I am still on full liquids and doubt its anything I have "eaten" that has caused the discomfort. Silly as it may seem, I have never really experienced hunger pangs. So my husband thinks this is what it is! lol I seriously don't know. Are hunger pangs this burning sensation in your belly?Has anyone else experienced this?
