I am just wondering has anyone had this problem since surgery I was sleeved in Sept, There have been a about 3 times when I have eaten not over eating at all, after a while my stomach starts hurting so bad and I get nauseated until i eventually either throw up or go to the bathroom (number 2), It dosent stop until I do those two a couple of times then I'm fine. I cant pin point it to a certain food, the first time I was eating chicken, second time salad, third time a small piece pork chop. These episodes usually last a couple of hours and during those times I am so uncomfortable I cant lay down or anything the pain is awful . The pain in my back and stomach is like a gassy type of pain and like I am so confused about this. Let me know if any of you have had this problem after being sleeved. Thanks

Hello its been a while since I have been on here just checking on my Sept 2010 sleevers to see where everyone is. My weight loss has slowed down a whole lot, I have only lost 51 pounds since then, I was hoping for a little bit more. I am eating and drinking more so I have to watch myself. Any tips on jump starting my loss back? What are you doing to maintain and not regain at this point? Thanks for any help and tips. Best wishes.

Not sure of the % I think I want to at least get down to 180. Food is usually good stuff not all the time. I am trying to increase my activity some though haven't been very good about that.

What do you all say when people ask you what your doing to loose weight? I dont want to lie but its not public info.

All true. Thanks

I had FMLA also andI was off 6 weeks.. Took all the time I needed.

I only have one inside my belly button I was surprised my self. Probably still wont wear a bikini ever but glad he was able to do it with the one incision.

Ok so far I have lost 30 pounds since my surgery on Sept 7 but I have gone back to work and the scale has not moved since. UGH

I was sleeved on Sept 7 and I just turned 30 in May

I appreciate it, I havent been doing good with the food so, I got to get back on track. Thank you both

Thank you and your right I got to revert back to the lesson.

Mine came on with no warning signs which its usually has signs a week before. I woke up and there it was.

I think I have all of you all beat I am 5'3 and before the surgery I was 290. I have had such a remarkable recovery it scares me, Tolerable pain when I got home, I only had one dose of pain meds, I can sleep on my tummy and eat and drink just fine just not as much. I have to force myself to eat at times never really hungry. I feel so blessed and you will be fine.

I was sleeved on Sept 7 I had the boot things but no drop for meds or no drains I had one cut which was in side of my belly button and It doesn't even hurt anymore:) slept on my tummy last night without any discomfort. I know everyone is different and different surgeons use different methods so everyones story and experiences may not apply to you unless your using the same Dr.

Why does it hurt in my chest when I drink something after Gastric Sleeve?:001_tongue:

I feel a little off every since yesterday, I was sleeved on 9/7 and the first 2 days were not good the next 2 where better, yesterday I was a little dizzy for some reason, last night I couldn't sleep I tossed and turned all night. I eventually got out of bed and just felt a little spacey, I'm not on any meds so I am not sure whats wrong I'm a little gasey but that passed. I am concerned about leaks and other complications I am not sure what I should be looking for. I tolerate pain pretty well I have only had to take the liquid Lortab once since I have been home so I am not really hurting I am very uncomfortable and a little light headed. If anyone can help I appreciate it.

I was officially sleeved on Tuesday, had some problems keeping things down but its getting better everyday. Pain is ok the worst is the indigestion and and pain when drinking too fast. The surgery went well and I only had one incision in my belly button. I am just hoping I feel like myself pretty soon and get to some real tasting food.

Mine is too I am nervous also but excited to be starting this journey. Im a little scared I think..

I am so ready for this to be over and done, I am a little nervous about how I will adjust but I am up for it. Sept 7 new beginning..

I am getting sleeved in 11 days on Sept 7. I have been struggling with the preop diet not doing it just finding stuff to eat. I have to put a lot of thought into what goes in my mouth now which is a challenge. I am ready to get this over with and start my new life thinner. I am little worried about the diet after I am sleeved any tips on meals the first week or two?

Oh they gave me one but everything is so new to me. I am on my preop diet High protein low fat and low carb, with has been a real thought process at times but its teaching me a vauluble lesson.
