    Sleeve Or Bypass

    I was 315 and now im 285. I got the sleeve about a month ago. I chose the sleeve because im scared to death of the dumping that comes with bypass and all the vitamins. Of course if I over eat im sick but it isn't as bad as it could be. I also have ibs and rerouting my intestines probably wouldn't be a good idea
  2. Im currently attempting to have the same thing(chicken and butternut squash) I had for dinner last night for lunch. Im finding it harder to stomach. Anyone else have this issue? Its super frustrating

    Dr.s In New York

    He's the head of bariatrics at good samaritian hospital in west islip. He definitely doesn't favor one over another. He holds a seminar with your options and tells you the positives and negatives of each and goes into detail on each surgery. I suggest you go to a few seminars at different places and see which surgeons you like the most

    Sensitivity

    Does anyone else find that after surgery they have more of a sensitivity to things?..I just started getting hives and I get itchy with things that never bothered me before
  6. So I haven't lost any weight in like 5 days. I know its the 3 week stall. How long does this last?

    3 Week Stall..great

    I did noticed my body looking different despite no weight loss. Very odd
  8. The incision in/at the rim of my belly button is hard and swollen/red. Im not fully sure if its from me sleeping on my stomach, something I wore, or something I did. Nothing is oozing or crusty its just tender, red, and swollen. Im almost 4 weeks out and im freaking out. Does anyone else get this? Im worried its infected

    How Many Times A Day Do You Eat

    Well like today I had some deli meat and cheese, after I had some ice pops, ill probably have some sf pudding and chicken salad later( not at the same time) and then some dinner. I think its more meals then snacks inbetween. Im just worried im doing this wrong
  10. I had the same exact thing. I just timed myself every 4 hours. Im almost 4 weeks out and im slightly getting the feeling back. Its the weirdest thing

    Red Swollen Incision

    Its not warm its just red and swollen
  13. No I looked it up and some people had that reaction..im guessing Its a sensitivity after surgery. I take some liquid benadryl when it gets super bad. Im almost 4 weeks out and I find its not happening as much though. Maybe its just gotta build up
  14. I get the same thing every once in a while..I get it from the prilosec I take in the morning

    Gas X Strips

    I was just curious why peoplesuggest are suggesting gas x strips for surgical gas after surgery? Its kind of driving me insane knowing it wont do a thing to help with surgical gas

    Gas X Strips

    I agree on that minty freshness

    Gas X Strips

    Walking is the only thing that helps(was so frustrating after surgery). Not trying to be mean but I just keep seeing people suggest it for surgical gas pain and im thinking is there something I missed?

    Retaining Fluid

    If its gas from surgery gas x wont do anything. The gas is used to expand your abdomen and isn't put inside your stomach or intestines rendering it useless. Surgical gas is "not that kind of gas". The only thing that'll help is a ton of walking. I had to walk every 5 minutes it hurt bad. Good luck!
