Sleeved 10/7/13 HW: 240/244 Beginning wt: 235 SW: 215 CW: 200 I had the dreaded 3 wk stall that lasted 10 days. I was stuck at 202! Next week I will be in Onederland!! Went for my 1 month post op today. I was taken off my Water pill for my BP the day before surgery. BP was running about 155/95 WITH my water pill. Today it was 138/82 woot! Now only med I take is omeprazole for heartburn. I was on Nexium because nothing else worked! Omeprazole does the job just fine now. So excited. I'm not excited that my clothes don't fit (I don't want to buy more knowing they will only fit temporarily) and my inner thighs are really jiggly.

My first week I had to work myself up to a mile (I didn't time myself) I didn't have pain but nausea with motion, and still do I am just about 3 weeks out and am walking 2 miles every other day but find after about 1.5 I get nauseous, still chugging along tho!

I started end of April, once i was done jumping through the flaming hoops blind folded per my insurance company I had surgery Oct 7th. I should have been in September but my insurance was a pain. Hang in there

Mine is not acid, I'm on meds. I think its head hunger and my tummy healing and getting used to the new tummy. For a while I was in the mind set that I CAN'T have certain foods but I've come to terms with that because I CAN have those things, I just will not be eating them as much or as often. Coming to that realization has helped tremendously! Im trying to really pay attention to the feeling i get in there so i can learn what they really are. I have noticed when I drink plain water my tummy feels hungry although its not.

Me 3!! But i think its head hunger or learning what all those feeling really are especially since we are still healing.

I bought a rotisserie chicken at the grocery and pulled off the white meat, pureed it with a little cream of chicken. I had enough to make all my lunches for a week! Before my surgery the thought of pureed meat grossed me out. I had to think of it differently. Now i cant wait to put the stuff on a cracker and eat it lol. So much so i have been researching low carb cracker options! I have not tried beef yet. Im a little scared.

Hope you are all feeling well, welcome to the losers bench ????

Its all a matter of personal preference, however, they will let you try the ready to drink protein drinks. I like their brand.

Congrats! Hope you have a speedy recovery

Congrats!! We are almost a week apart!

Congrats girls! I was sleeved on the 7th so I'm 11 days out and feeling pretty good. I hope everything went well for you yesterday!!

Was sleeved 10/7 and am in the pureed stage. Im starting to log on myfitnesspal and looking for friends. Feel free to add me no matter where you are in your journey overtherainebow is my username.

Sorry to hear! Hope everything goes well with your new date

I can eat about 2oz yogurt right now, I'm 9 days out and just started pureed.

Ill be adding folks here shortly! Anyone else?

Hope your surgery went well!

Congrats on your surgeries! Kay, i am in ohio too! Originally from Dayton but close to Lima now

I had Dr Curry do my sleeve on 10/7. So far so good!

I just wanted to pop in and say hi. I've been lurking for a few days. I was sleeved Oct. 7 2013 so I am 6 days post-op. My surgery went smoothly, pain afterward was minimal. However, the nausea was killer for the rest of the day. By morning it was better, no throwing up but still very nauseated! I came home Tuesday but really don't remember much from that day other than the ride home was terrible and taking the liquid lortab I was given for pain and it coming right back up. I haven't touched pain meds since. The only "pain" I have had is the gas pains in my shoulder at bedtime. Today, day 6, I feel perfectly fine. My doc said if i was up to going back to work on Monday I could (I have a desk job) so thats what I will be doing tomorrow. Anyone else get sleeved on the 7th? How are you doing? Candy

I had a decent day at work. It wasn't too bad. Would have been better if i would have been able to sleep the night before! So glad to have so many surgery brothers and sisters! Good luck with your journey! If you have myfitnesspal i am overtherainebow spelled exactly like that.

We have the same surgery date!! I had the same problems but talked to my friend who had the same surgery and was reminded small baby bites and eat slowly! I didn't have razor blades just discomfort but that has gone now that I'm eating slower and smaller bites. Hope you're feeling better!

Good luck with your sleeve tomorrow!!

Maybe try a different shake. Maybe your new sleeve cant tolerate the one you are drinking?

Im 6 days out, mine would do that off and on, especially when I drank something. Its getting better now. I thought it was gas.

Looking good!
