Hi all! I am kind of stalling too! Sw 292 Current 204.8

I had a horrible pooping situation post op. on the second day, I farted a lil and leaked liquid stool. For two days after that, I had zero control of my bowels! I had liquid uncontrollable diarrhea. I literally **** the bed. It was horrible. It eventually eased up and passed! Good luck! Helen. Sleeved 5/15 292 240

Mine depends on the week... I can go from 1-4 lbs. What are you guys up to? Sleeved 5/15 Highest weight: 292 Current weight: 240 Helen.

Hi all! I am about 6 weeks out.. Sleeved 5/15 and I have noticed I am totally Protein paranoid! I will eat meats- mostly chicken- and cheeses... Some Protein shakes, but I am so worried about getting enough protein in that I won't touch any other things, really. I know I am being a bit anal, but is anyone else like this? Helen SW: 292 CW: 249

Be careful of the sugar content in the yogurts!

It's not really potassium, it is magnesium you need to worry about for those cramps! Good luck! Helen :-)

Hi all! Sleeved 5/15. Day of surgery: 292 Today: 248 44lbs so far!! Helen.

So, I was sleeved on May 15. I have yet to have my period. I know I am not pg. I was thinking that my body is kind of adjusting because of losing 40lbs in about a month. Has this happened to anyone else? Helen

I have had a miserable belly for two days. Has anyone tried tums post op?

Hi all! I am in the soft phase and am clueless as to what to eat. I have been doing yogurt, tuna, Popsicles and soups! Help me please with ideas!!! Please! Helen

I need more creative ways of sneaking in Protein. Come on you sleeved Yodas... Give a sleeved Jedi some wisdom! Helen.

So, I was sleeved on 5/15. Today, I have had scrambled eggs and yogurt and my stomach has not been happy. Had a little puking. A bit of diarrhea. I have had both foods earlier, but not the same reaction. I may just stick to the yogurt for now. Maybe eggs are too harsh. Who knows? Anyone else feel like this is a guessing game?

I don't think we can have it yet. I was sleeved on 5/15

I had to reply to this because I felt the same way. I had my sleeve done on 5/15. The first night was horrific pain, intractable nausea, dry heaving and painful hiccups. Night 2 was loss of ability to pee followed by straight catching for urine and then loss of my bowels w horrible, liquid battery acid diarrhea. I ended up staying for 5 days total. They thought I had c diff. Gave me antibiotics that made me even more nauseated. It was horrid. I am on day 6 now and I finally feel a bit better. My issues have resolved. Please don't regret it. I spent days crying in the hospital. We will get through this. Each at our own pace.

Hi all. Just wondering. It seems my weight might be higher than most. Anyone else up this way? I get sleeved in less than 24 hours and ready to Not feel this way!! Helen.

I was havin horrible diarrhea. They later determined it was c diff. It's just been a rough few days. Did you guys have tearing like pains? Just curious? Around my lap sites I have pulling burning pains. ... H

Hi all! I cannot tell you how much your posts meant to me. I had the sleeve on Wed and have had comp since. Your posts have kept me going!
