Some days my appetite is pretty high and some day I have very little appetite. I do agree that some times hunger could be excess acid and A PPI does help. Good luck

Has Anyone Managed To Keep Surgery Completely Private?
Ballermom replied to bettyboo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wanted it to be a secret but i told a close family member/ a parent. They texted the rest of my family cousins uncles etc. With my secret. I found out. I was angry to say the least. It wasn't everyones business. So, i found out that some people will share their fears and concern for you with other family members. This was my experience. You have to decide how you want to handle your surgery details. If I have another surgery like TT I would not feel a need to get permission from anyone other than telling my spouse. Lesson Learned. Good luck -
Wow! Now that's a Birthday present. Happy Birthday.

I actually had a stomach flu Started Saturday. Freak I was at home alone got to the point couldn't get out of bed for fear I'd pass out on floor. Like a 24 thing. Started with sore throat. Coughing up mucus. My son came home andI eventually got some sleep. It's horrible to vomit with this sleeve. I'm back to normal. Sipped on immune boosting teas. I sincerely hope you feel better soon!

Freedom from weight obsession...
Ballermom replied to gmanbat's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Fantastic, and well said. Also Totally Inspired! Congrats -
Starting BMI 41.8 HW 267 SW 269 CW 208 Sleeved 2/27 work out a little. Consider my self a slow looser. But I love it that I'm loosing. From a size 22/24 3x women to a 12/14 misses!

I agree that there issues going on here that counseling could help you. Affairs are not worth the Guilt and is not an excuse. You could be left holding the emotional bag. From your husband and the person you have the affair with as well as your own stuff. And your husband could use the affair as leverage over you in the end. Instead of repairing the marriage. Affairs can damage you personally, a lot faster . This is my just my opinion!

My highest weight 267 I was wearing 22/24 even started buying 3x Lane Bryant too. Now at 208lbs I'm loosing inches fast too. I'm wearing 12/14 pants and 12/14 tops. Looks like Belly fat may be last and a TT is needed later.

So far, not loving my sleeve
Ballermom replied to Readytobeskinny's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Be encouraged today. I was loosing slow. Sometimes unbelievably slow to me. At time the scale doesn't change for a week. . But when that happens I notice that I am still loosing but inches. inches matter! ! Why I say that because some times after a stall I go down in clothes size. Thats when size does matter. Keep up the good work. Each day will get better. -
Congrats

Why you chose the sleeve
Ballermom replied to corcor85's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I choose the sleeve because I did not want to go for fills and up keep. I also look and the complications and success rates withe Sleeve. Best decision I ever made. I Love my Sleeve. -
It does get better each day. It's also individual. Be encouraged and keep trying to increase your fluids waters and protein. Protein speeds healing. Congrats
