I can relate... up your protein go for a walk or just walk around the house go outside enjoy the sun.I'm in day 12 post op and the hunger will past try to get more water..Good Luck!!

up your water and protein are you exercising how many cal.or you get in a day!!I stall and I up mt water and walk more and it help...Hang in there..

No...Alcohol very bad for your sleeve what did your DR. tell you when it's ok to drink...

If I eat to fast man o man the pain I use my timer on my Iphone for 10mins and I stop for 10mins then I can stop or take another bite it helps to slow me down all ways been a fast eater and chew chew chew hard to do!!

Hang in there everyone has a stall try to up your water and more protein not everyone is the same and start moving more I walk a lot more I had a stall also but I start to lose inches and they weight again I all so read this great book Weight Loss for Dummies it's been a life saver has a lot of answer good luck Don't eat fast food you will get very very stick !! I DO the same thing reading labels it takes for ever to shop.. It's a new way of Life!!

Up your protein try some B-12 sublingual or shots are you walking or exercise of any kind it will help taking any vitamins.. it takes about 6-9 months for your new stomach size to stabilize you should get about 65-70 g protein a day or 2oz protein at breakfast lunch about 14g dinner 14g and 3 serving of low fat milk 8g yogurt 78g or cheese7g per day and lots of water eat your protein first keep you feeling fuller I do protein supplements mid morning and mid afternoon need your protein help for muscle mass and help reduce hair loss. I READ this great book Weight Loss Surgery for Dummies great book..Good Luck to you!!

This a tool not the magic bullet a lot of hard work I can relate to family not understanding it hard to share this with family and friends but this is your decision. I told my mom about my health concerns and I had the best DR. and a great support group I took my hubby to a group meeting and he understand better about the sleeve share books and the internet I have loss my best friend over this decision to do the sleeve but I know in time they will come around when they see all the hard work you have done to change your life Good Luck hang in there!! this is for You ...

Try miralax It's great I think it's all the protein power and the calcium citrate I had to up may water I'm just 12 days post op...Also stood softer..

My DR. said no push pull and don't pick up over 10lbs for 2- 4 weeks If you can set on the floor with your 13 mos. might help try to get some one to help you I know it's hard.Don't want any thing to pull are leakages be careful you just had major surgery 80% of you tummy remove...Best of Luck!!

Please don't get discouraged...I felt the same about 4-5 days post-op I think it's coming off all the drugs they give you..major surgery is hard on the body and the brain you just had 80% of your stomach remove and depression and anxiety is part of it be good to your self it get's better day by day.I am 10 days post op and today was my best day a little cramps if I drink to fast but at 54 yrs old it's been slow going I not upset with my family the other day and I just went outside and enjoyed the sun and it helps...Good Luck!!

I did all so but I think it was the pain pills I'm 10 days post op and doing a lot better today sleeping better now.

I take 65-70grams of protein a day I do Miralax when need no sugar low carbs and 2-centrum sliver vitamin and B complex sublingual B-12 if need a day! Fiber one is good lots and lots of Water..Try to get as much vegs in you that you can Right now I am still in soft foods but my friend is in the next stage and she eats Baby food Jr.3x week and it helps Good luck!

It will get better try protein that is water base I couldn't do any mike right away about day 5-6 you will feel a lot better hang in there..

No it's a trick to get your to buy more I find out the hard way also in sugar free and no sugar add it that's why I read everything no fun getting sick ...
