  1. I am 6 weeks post op and I have been experiencing something similiar. My symptoms feel like severe hunger pangs with nausea. I knew it was not hunger because I would feel it even after I ate. My nexium was increased and the symptoms have improved greatly. To be on the safe side, I would talk to your medical provider. Hope you start feeling better soon.
  2. Hi All, I turn 44 on 11/11 and I'm more healthy today then when I was 34! I had the band to sleeve revision by Dr. Aceves on 10/12/11 so I'm about 3 weeks out. I am so glad to be rid of the band Thanks for all the support!

    Fried Foods

    Thanks you all for sharing your experiences and ideas. It's nice to know that a few bites here and there seems to satisfy most peoples and some lose their taste for it altogether. I will definetly check out Hungry-Girl.com. I love to cook and try new recipes so I will keep an open mind Debsii LaurenKorea-Do you use a Phillips Air Fryer? I love the concept of having the "fried" taste without the "fried" fat and grease. I have read on these posts that some sleevers have experience the symptoms of dumping syndrome if they eat to much sugar or fat. Their experiences sounded aweful! Thanks again!

    Fried Foods

    I had a band to sleeve revision done on 10/12/11. I was successful with the band, however like a lot of folks who had made the switch I began to experience complications around the 5 year mark. I have been reading as much as I can on ways to maintain my relatively healthy way of eating with the sleeve. There is a wealth of information here and I thank you all on sharing your experiences. There are those rare occasions however that I just want a good piece of fried chicken or beer batter fish, but I have read that there are many people who can no longer tolerate ANY fried foods post sleeve because it causes "dumping syndrome" or other unpleasant reactions. Can you share your experiences. Is this going to be a no- no food forever? Thanks!
