sleeved 4/17 down 35 lbs since . I eat maily protein started working out I wasn't able to due to also having hernia issues but everything is all good now !

I took a sip of my protein drink this morning, and vomited and had dry heaves that seemed like forever, has anyone had this problem before ?

I am a month and week out and my understanding is that if your stomach was hurting after you eat it might be too full ( thats what my dr explained to me anyway) it is like the new normal I wasonly able to eat maybe a tablespoon combined of anything I ate cottage cheese ,yogurt, etc etc etc OR it is too dry to go down most people now need to eat foods with most moistness to them OR maybe your body is not able to tolerate the foods anymore I can't take alot of veggies anymore kills my tummy maybe you need to take a few steps back and drink liquids one day and see where that brings you ...anywho like i said I am this far out and unless I over eat or eat to fast the pain eventually lessens my dr's rule of thumb if you can't tolerate food go back and do a 24 liquid diet These are my experiences and my opinions hope they help

I wish my taste buds would have changed, only 2 things are not so fantastic and they are white castle ( i only ate the meat but it made me sick) and most cream soups make me want to vomit... but that is it sadly

Food for thought if you have stretch marks your skin is damaged they are little tears in the fibers, the elasticity is ripped apart,once this occurs there is no way to reverse this therefore unless you have skin removal you live with having A) saggy skin and 2) silver lines running the length of where ever you got them...( I have spoke to my dr about that) just saying ...tho the list is interesting I don't buy it either, just luck of the draw some skin will snap back some won't The wraps as attractive as that seems for lasting results you have to do them at least every week or so... so no there not a lasting solution either I don't have that luxury of spending 65+bucks a pop ( give or take depending where you live) SO I guess I will stick with spanx till I can afford to get "the proven effective skin removal"

I am down about 20 lbs my surgery was april 17th ...I wish it was more I had to stay in the hosp for more than 5 days due to some odd things but now doing alot better I eat mainly protein , BUT if I get a craving for something I will let myself have it because I do know If I don't it will make things worse later on, still working on keeping vitamins down and getting in all my water that is hard ! I walk almost everyday. I watch carbs but I more focus on the high protein/low sugar but I DO NOT eat sugar free anything !

you will do fine and we will be your moral/emtional support <3 you are doing what is right for you, barely any of my family know I am doing this only a select few for this very reason ....It will all be ok
