So I got home from work today and my belly button kinda hurt. I looked at it and it is all red inside. :/ I usually clean it out with a q tip but it hurt to much. Anyone else have similar issue?

Same here I had a kidney stone last month and didn't east for like a week because I was so nauseas and was in tons if pain meds. I didn't look a pound. My doctor says it is impossible to not eat and not lose but I think my body just shut down to conserve. -

I total understand I'm freaking out too. I was 5 weeks post op and went to see my surgeon he told me I hadn't lost enough weight. SW 285 Weight at 5 wks 265 Current Weight 257 He told me I have to lose 20 lbs in the next 5 wks My scale hasn't moved in a wk. I am walking as much as I can, I have 15 mth old I chase around all day. I hate that he is making me feel like I'm a failure already.

Traveling, need some food suggestions
mandavander replied to mandavander's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Awesome you are giving me so many ideas. I'm cleared for soft meats and cooked veggies. No beef Jerky but I have tried some turkey pepperoni. String cheese is great. I'm traveling with my one yr old so I'm hoping we can share some Snacks on the plane. I love nuts dried fruit and trail mix but thought that was a no no ? Is that something I may be able to do later on? -

Traveling, need some food suggestions
mandavander replied to mandavander's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Oh yeah I should say I'm 5weeks out but haven't tried anything that doesn't agree with me. Tuna or chicken, I've done some lunch meat but try to stay away from the high sodium. I just assumed you couldn't bring food on the plane. I know they restrict liquids. -
Hello all, I will be traveling out of state next week and I'm curious what foods you have found that are decent to eat on the run. Like fast food or restaurants that have good choices. I will have a fridge in my hotel so I plan on make a trip to the grocery store but know we will be out and about a lot. Also concerned about the airport and plane ride, can't bring food with me. So anyone have some suggestions for that. Thanks

I was sleeved February 7th Doing great, I feel great but my surgeon just told me I should be losing quicker. I was terrible nauseas the first week or two then my whole house got a stomach flu and now last week I ended up with a kidney stone that out knocked me out for 3 days. All in all I feel great and can't wait to be healthy enough to do some exercise. -
