Ms skinniness

Hummm, No one has said anything negative to me, but my BIL told me when I shared with him later that he would of prayed for me. Now he doesn't speak to me at all and his brother is totally angry with him because of his rude behaviors. It's really no loss to me.

I was always hearing my gut for the first 3 months. I still have a rumbling gut periodically.

Each medical professional has their own opinions. My PCP told me he would do follow ups after I told him I was going to Mexico, and then he referred me to Kaiser's bariatric program. If he wasn't supportive, I would have went to a different PCP that was. That's how set I was on getting this surgery. This is the best decision I have ever made.

LOL! I can see you running with your kids! It will happen! Hugs

I had no complications. I was a little weak and tired but that was it. I only took meds in the hospital for pain, but I wasn't really in pain, only getting up and down from the incision sites. I just wanted to sleep.This is the best thing that I have done for me! And now I'm reapin the benefits! Yayyyyyyyy! Congrats, have the surgery and just move forward to your own skinniness!

I'm not going to wish you good luck, bc you already have good luck! Sending healing energy your way! "HUGS"

CONGRATS! Don't even look back! You are going to have better health, more energy, able to do more things than you ever had before when being over weight. And your going to be even more beautiful than you are now. Sending healing energy your way.

Hey, this is day 2 and things are looking great. I woke up with a HA though, but have been for the past week. I was only able to get in 800 oz of water yesturday. But that was an increase in water for me. Yayyyyyyyyyyy! Now time to start drinking water again.

This is so scary for me too. I know that I am not always disciplined and sometimes eat things I don't need to eat. I believe that we have to make this our journey to carefully monitor our weight and eat Protein first, and more importantly, now I'm looking at keeping my Proteins low fat and my meats lean cuts, small portion sizes. This is a problem because I love nuts. We can do this! Get back on track with a fitness app. exercise do LilMissDiva's "The Basic Bootcamp" to get over the sweets cravings.

Meg: CONGRATS! I'm so excited to hear that you are at goal!

My hubby use to eat my meals and now he's gained weight and his blood sugar is way out of control.

Hipe you get better real soon. Let us know what the doctor said.

Yes on the refill but also speak with the doc and tell him/her whats going on.

I slept in an inclined position and that helped a lot with acid and gas. It did make my hair a mess though.

Gather as much info as you can and discuss it further with your surgeon. Like Lissa said, she knows someone who has the sleeve and Barrett's. Let us know what's going on...... Sorry for the bad news.....XOXO!

I bought some for hunger, tried them once and hated how they expanded. Now I'll try them quickly and see what happens.

I didn't take anything, not even a tooth brush. I guess I didn't think i was going to get the surgery! LOL Actually all I needed was my morphine drip! Yep, slept the whole time when I wasn't walking! I hated my hiney being exposed also. LOL So glad I did this.

OMG! You are looking so sexy! You are a Diva! Yep, that's right! A Diva!

I love going into Italian restrants and ordering a meatball sandwich without the bread. They will bring a plate with 3 giant meatballs and some cheese covered with marinara sauce. I can maybe get about 1/2 of a meatball down and then I'm totally full. So delicious. I don't even miss pasta's at all. Teddy Bear was it head hunger that drove you to eating Pasta? Now would be a good time to identify head hunger to not get caught up in it.

Congrats! It will be here before you know it! Let us know your surgery date when you find out!

You may have acid in your stomach. you might give you surgeon's office a call and ask about taking a PPI (nexium, omeprazole, tagamet) to reduce the acid. Acid and gas mimimics hunger. And yes, sometimes it is head hunger as well.

So you guys have a life! Yayyyyyyyyyy! Glad to hear. I have been distracted from participating on this site as much. I still come on daily but find myself being very selective and sometimes i don't know what to say. I'm in a funk! LOL Good to hear from you guys!

I believe that part of you knows that your doing really good! And you are! This is normal for all of us. One day we can eat more than the next day. It would be great to increase your water intake.
