    Gastric sleeve and dumping

    Am 2.5 weeks out and I have dumped twice. I am sleeved. First time was last Saturday night. I ate 1 falafel and some hummus. Deep fried falafel and the oil in hummus well it was out of me within 30 minutes. Thank god I was home. Second time was 3 nights ago. I was told the frozen yogurt was sugar free. I triple asked and triple assured. They lied. I had 3 bites and 1 hour later I was again losing everything. It does happen with the sleeve and if you follow the diet should be fine. I thought the hummus would've been ok in purée atafe. The falafel i are only a little of and only insides. Well love and learn.

    Fruit

    I was told 1 piece of fruit a day starting next week. But not evry fruit. Kiwi banana peaches apricots no skins no dried fruits Blueberries as well I can add to yogurt No yogurt with fruit in it though
  3. Have you called blue and ask them why they denied it? Speak to them and save your money Sometimes I find that if you just talk to the rep they can tell you bullet point by bullet point what was missed in the submission Since you stated your surgeons team is acting lackadaisical it's possible (very possible) that they missed something In the filing. That happens more often than you think.

    The Math Doesn't Add Up

    Are you drinking? Your body may be in starvation mode. Are you eating protein only or still doing carbs?

    This is a new one for me..

    I haven't lost the feeling of being hungry and am 2 weeks out. What i do notice however is that if I get hungry then I tend to eat to fast and overeat. I would recommend you try to eat every 2-3 hours and just make it small. I know you don't want to but you have to consider your health first. The rest will work itself out. You may just want to sip on Protein shakes on and off too. Good luck. I am sorry that you are undergoing this. I hope you come out on the other side an even better and stronger you. And I know you will!

    Feeling unsure

    Good for you. My doc told me at te hospital at discharge not to worry about counting anything just get in my fluids and some Protein shakes. As much as possible and aim for 24 ounces of liquid a day. That was no problem really

  13. My first visit was 20 minutes with surgeon and I got a checklist of all things I needed to do when I was ready to start. I was ready 3 months post that. I came back met with a new surgeon and that lasted maybe 30 minutes. And then started NUT, psych etc

    Sick to my Stomach.. Normal?

    Make sure you're walking around to relieve the gas. I wore a path in my living room until i felt good enough to go outside. You may also want to ask surgeon for anti nausea meds

    I think I over did it.

    Yes installed out for 6 days when I started purée I also had a auntie flo in town so no loss for a week! I drank about 1 ounce prune juice mixed with Water that worked and then flo left town and then I started losing again Sunday night.
  17. I tried adipex p which is phentermine. I hated it. It's basically speed. I felt totally wired up. No I was not that hungry with it but you can only use it a short time without effects to your kidneys. I lost 12 pounds first time and as soon as I stopped I put them right back on and then some

    postop esophageal spasms

    I did have hernia repair and had those spasms when I overate but not during drinking. I think it was more I was overrating than anything else
  19. Worked just fine for me at 240

    size of portions

    Not one of my posts. 2 weeks po today and I can do about 3 ounces of Protein per meal most days. Today was not one of those days ???????? I don't think this is the plan forever but ok for now and I do a Protein shake a day for next 2 weeks. Then occasionally after that.

    Band to Sleeve - Insurance Question BCBS NC

    To bar them from excluding something due to fine print, be safe not sorry. Just wait until you are on the plan. Will it be much longer?
  22. High weight was 240 and was at 235 when preop started. Surgery weight two weeks later was 222

    I barely drink

    I manage with the 30 minute rule. I just sip all day
  24. I was sleeved on 6/24 and have been stuck for the last 5 days. Part of it is my period. And part I think not enough Protein. So today I made sure I got my protein in and counted -- 89 grams! The Water intake through is challenging for me. I think I managed 40 ounces. So that is next goal to maintain the protei level and increase the water High weight 240 Surgery weight 222 Today 214
