1Mo Po & I've Gained Weight:(
Swimmer replied to teambrown4's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I just wanted to say hang in there ai have been there and was so frustrated. I gained six pounds at about 2/3 weeks out and stalled for weeks. I finally relost that weight and now three more pounds. I was beginning to think I was never going to lose again. Thankfully I don't have the option to wrote because I felt like I wanted to do so. I'm praying my gaining days are just do to adding good back food and that the losing can continue. Just keep doing the right things. I know how frustrating this is, but you aren't going to fail even though it feels like it. I was dreading people asking my how much I lost and I had to say nothing or worse I gained for give weeks! Don't give up. -

3Rd Week Post After Vertical Sleeve
Swimmer replied to julialynns6's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Tums helped me. Make sure you are getting your fluids in too. If the nausea is really bad your dr can give you a prescription for something like reglan. -
How does it hurt? Do you think it is gas pain? I found at this stage warm broth was the easiest to tolerate. I agree with the gasx and heating pad. It gets better soon. Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks. Nothing sticking out and this is an incision that tore open at the hospital. I'll let you know. So far it has just been bleeding a bit. -
Incision Infected At Seven Weeks
Swimmer replied to Swimmer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's dark purple and I just noticed today when it started leaking pus and blood, gross I know. Then it bled for a bit and is now a small open pin hole. I have heard of that with the stitches. My dr is closed today so I may have to call tomorrow. Just seemed late to me to have this issue. -

Swimmer replied to Pammie's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'm in the same boat and so frustrated. But not like I have an option at this point. Just have to keep going and I guess be glad I'm not gaining. -

Its Only Week 2: Why Am I So Hungry?
Swimmer replied to Shemy-away's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This just started for me a couple weeks ago and I'm about seven weeks out. I have started having a few tums and hunger goes away. -
No regrets here either.

I would say no to the protein, yes to the loose clothes. I took too much. I did use gas x, chap stick and my phone. Best wishes so exciting.

I can eat more soup so I tend to order soup when out with people. Some days it seems I can eat more than others too.

Sleeved Yesterday And Sick :-(
Swimmer replied to jwelk's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Pretty normal though I know that doesn't help right now. Get some rest and hope you heal quickly. -
Thanks for the input. Hi CA! How are you doing? It's starting to feel normal for me. Though some days I think I'm hungry and somedays not at all, might be acid.

I think the approval call day was one of the best! Congrats!
