I've heard of this happening before it may be swelling. It sounds like warm liquids sooth your throat. And a lot of those liquids have citrus acid in them that could be causing the burning. Your body is in the healing stage it will get better.

Great to hear how well you are doing. I wish you further success for years.

If nothing else try the gummy vites at least it will be something they also make gummy calcium its worth a try. I don't get sick but I really hate chewable vitamins......

I must be stronger than I think. Haven't been grazing but for snacks I have found that pepperoni bites are a great protein snack. Try to find snacks without carbs and there are other snacks you can eat that won't sabatage your diet. Learn new eating habits. And yes make an appt with the pys doc..... they will give you great insite.

Wow that's a lot of time to wait ...but it is going to be worth it. It's a life changing experience take some time to reflect. I'm so glad I did this I have lost 50 lbs or so and feel great. I love shopping now, where before it was such a chore and disappointment. No more W's for me.... I'm sure you know what I mean..... It is so weird to shop in the normal people clothes...lol

I was sleeved on Feb 27 and have lost 50 lbs have had several stalls be it catches up with a vengence just be patience we are all on our own journey together every ones body reacts differently be patient it will come soon.

When I started my Journey I was looking to lose 100 lbs...... and most did not realize I needed to lose that much. I have lost 60 lbs and am so happy that I took that first step...,.... nothing I tried worked... just like you lose 30 gain 40.... it really sucked..... My husband was very supportive but sometimes showed resentment ...... He wishes he could do the same but due to health issues is reluctant..... But I am so glad I have come so far.....

I've not excersiced at all but I have a 3 week stall..... finally I went back to basics protein and water and vitamins..... that started the weight loss again....... almost to 200 soon...... next week maybe.

Good Luck to you I know how you feel elated with the progress. I love my new body even after just 4 months.

I have lost 60 lbs total so far. My husband and daughter are the only ones I tell... some of my friends that are nurses have asked in a sensitive way and I have told them..... But I am not real open about the numbers... what you see is what you get.

Yea I understand your feelings. I did not have the complication You had and still doubted my decision to have the sleeve. But now I am so glad I did I could not have lost this weight without it. Good Luck with your recovery and future weight loss. Be Happy with your self.

Well I told my husband and kids. Any other family has not been told. My work Peeps I told them Most are overweight and I had hoped to encourage them to get health as well. They are very supportive and I don't mind when they ask how much I have lost. It's very noticeable. When I changed shifts I didn't share quite as much but I will in time. Good Luck to all and don't get to weirded out by the attention. It's a good thing that we are loseing weight.

Kat, Your brain is trying to understand the new stomach. I was feeling that to but after a while your brain figures it all out that feeling will stop. And whether you weight your food or not you will learn when to stop eating. Its just a matter of your brain getting use to the new signals you stomach is sending to it. Feel better, Get better.

Well hang in there. I just broke my 3 week stall. It was really stressful but I tried not to worry about it.

Some one posted a meat ball receipe and i tried it. It was great. 1 lbs hamburger meat spices garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, basil mozz cheese split in half, and quarters and 1/8th s take each piece and roll, flaten, put one piece of cheese in middle cover and roll I browned in pan and then finished in oven at 300 for 20 minutes. They were great. My husband said you didn't put any bread in it? NO It can't be good, Then he tried them ...... Hey they are pretty good. I put some ragu sauce on them (2Tbl spoons) and some parm cheese. I can only eat 2 but they really satisfy and craving.

Well I had surgery on Feb 27 but my Pic was taken for my work id Aug 2011.... some one asked me who was that on my id .... I said the old me....lol .... and my friend said come get in the picture shadow of yourself. Yes I've lost 55 lbs and happy for it.... I've been in a stall for about 3 weeks getting back to basics protein, protein, protein few carbs may be this will give me a jump start. 45 more lbs to goal but I feel so good now. This is the best thing I could have done for myself.

good for yall. I've tried to get my daughter to consider this or even the band but she is scared. She has to come off my ins in Nov... not much time. I'm so glad I did it.

Yes I'm in a stall but I am going back to basics no carbs, plenty of protein and lots of water. It's so easy to relax and not eat the right things but if you just look at what you are eating you will figure it out. Get back on track and the weight loss will start again. Good Luck to all having surgery soon!

fortunatly my doc office gave me good info as to what the ins needed and yes I had to go back i think 5 years so i got the info sent to them early.

Way to go!!! Such an inspiration.

I'm 4 months out and have lost 55 lbs..... It goes good for a couple of weeks and then it stops for a couple of weeks... such a journey.... just be patient .... stay true to your diet and it will happen.

my doc did not give me completely liquid diet I was allowed pureed veggie or fruit .... thank god for apple sauce.... anyway it wasn't so bad for me.

I'm 4 months out and in a stall... but you know what i'm ok and I eat little meals and know that it won't last forever. I have cheese snacks and fruits but i have faultered on the vitimins... my bad I think this is part of my problem I'll do better and get thru this. I've lost 55 lbs feeling good.

Or you could do the pre op diet for a couple of weeks to get back on track it may help.

Good Luck! You may not have alot of support at home but you can always come to your buddies here for support whether you need uplifting or want to brag we will be here.
