    Thanks Scarlette! I've really up'd them already w healthy foods and lost 8 more lbs. I guess that's why I'm so confused.

    3 weeks post sleeve

    Have you been taking any acid reducers? Most of us are on something. For me it's Pepcid 20 mg's twice a day. I've noticed if I skip a dose my tummy feels yuckie!

    Hunger

    For me head hunger means I just want a "taste" in my mouth. Gum or a mint usually does the trick for me on that. Pre-sleeve hunger- stomach growling w the I MUST eat! Post sleeve "hunger"- I don't have any. I'll get weak if I go too long btwn meals. I love this though bc I'm not "driven" to food. Also post sleeve I (for a better lack of words)---> crave... meat, Veggies & fruit no joke. My taste buds changed drastically. I cannt stand fried foods nor sweets.

    Anyone NOT have a NUT?

    I don't have one. It's optional @ my Surgeons office.

    Opening from drain not healing

    I'd call your Surgeon bc mine closed fairly quick.
  14. I know it's hard right now but trust me things will get better day by day.
  15. My surgeon did both my band & sleeve. Upon band removal he said I needed to wait 10 wks bc of scar tissue.
  16. ^^^^^ Hot Damn you look Great!!!!! Congratulations!!!! I too lost all of my pre op pics due to getting a new phone.

    Progress

    I'd still go out alone for drinks bc you just never know who you'll meet! Plus, going out alone helped boost my self esteem and I loved that no one knew me. Don't give up keep living your life it'll happen when you LEAST expect it! I know bc that's what happened to me. I was single 5 yrs, met a guy out of State. We kept in touch and a month later her relocated from NY to Texas. We've been married 5 years!!!! Just go w the flo & keep moving forward!!!

    Acne

    OMG I broke out bad in months 3-5!!!! It was horrific!!! I went to Target and got a cheap-o version of the proactive kit but what really worked was Walgreens Daily Face Wash with 2% Salicylic Acid!

    2 weeks out and all of a sudden acid.....?

    With any bariatric surgery there's usually an acid reducer we'll need for life. It's normal and Congrats on your new sleeve!!!
