It could be, but it only happen when I eat dinner, never with the shakes, bars or anything on the liquid meal. I will have to check into that with the doc..

So am 6.5 weeks out and down 48 lbs which am so thankful for. Am starting to seeing changes in my body and mind alot. But I have a general question and I know everyone is different so just looking for some general ideas here. So far my food intake has been mostly protien shacks and bars. I try different food at dinner time mostly, but I get this feeling of it being in my throat after a few small I mean small bites. I had about four foaming incident where I was eating to fast. I really try to listen to my body to stop that from happening, last night I thought I caught it but I was wrong. Ooops.... So, here the question does that feeling every go away, I just want to eat something without feeling that feeling in my throat.. I know am new still and be body is changing daily and I also know that in time I will be able to eat things without that feeling, just seem at this point it will never come. thanks for any advice you may have....

Well, I started this jounary almost a year ago. Went to a doctor appt for a check up and talked with her about weight loss surgery. She referred me to the local bariatric surgery clinic at the hospital. I went to all my meetings and appointment with them and was approved for the surgery through my insurance. On May 4th of this year at 0745 hours I went to sleep and woke up 4 hours later with my new sleeve. I was up and walking by 7 pm that night in the hospital I had a great nursing staff and docotors. I stayed in the hospital for only two days, I had no pain to speak of besides the drain but it wasn't anything really. When I left the hospital I was 318.6 lbs lost on May 6th. Since then I have lost 36.4 lbs putting my at 282.2 lbs as of this morning. My goal is to be at approx. 200-215 lbs I have a large frame and stand 6' 1" so I think that would be a good weight who know maybe I'll shoot for 190.
