Hi , I had surgery on May 29th I lost 31 lbs from starting weight was 241lbs .

Hi , I totally understand what you are going through because I am three weeks out and have never throw up so many times , I know when I eat purée foods and sometimes the smallest amount does that with a choking feeling . But I think we just have to heal and learn a whole new life style in eating , congrats on your sleeve and do what works for you .

Hi , are you using milk to make your protein shake? If u are , you should change to lactose free and make sure you are using gas x and some thing for the acid in your stomach , and you should call your Dr and ask him for a prescription for the acid meds , and having diarrhea does not mean you have to be hospitalize so please don't suffer call your Dr that's what he is there for. You are only prolonging your recovery cuz the longer you wait the more dehydrated you will get , you should also asked him if you can drink pedialyte to replace the electrolyte you loss . Good luck and congratulation on the new you .

Hi I am in my third week today and the only people I told was my boyfriend and my two daughters and I have their support and I have six siblings the reason I did not tell them is because of the gossip and negative comments, even though we say we are not going to let what they say bother us it do , so I know I did not want it to hamper my healing, I told them I had a hernia repair after the surgery. So don't let them put u down cuz they will never understand unless they have to live with being heavy and struggle everyday. God bless and congratulation on the new you .

Thanks you for your words and I agree that if I don't do this I will only keek gaining weight and I can't do that I have knees problem and it so hard to walk .

Hi all , I am having surgery on Thursday and I am so worried about if I am doing the right thing and if I will loose weight and the worst part I have five siblings and I did not tell anyone cuz I don't want their opinion cuz I know I won't like what they say and being that I am the youngest and heaviest, I work a lot and never have a lot of time so I don't know how I am going to deal with this and if I don't work I don't get paid. So can anyone tell me if I am doing the right thing ?

Hi cowgirljane I totally understand what you are saying cuz I lost many family members and then had to admit to myself that if I do not get a divorce my husband would do some to me and after that I just would look for things to numb my feelings and I could not even be there for my girls and give them all my attention , it's so funny how we can allow people to control our emotions, I want to do this for me and that's one of the reason I did not tell my family.

Hi I am new to posting but I have been reading a lot for a while and I started 3 month ago to research so I can have wls and I am having it on May 29th, I also eat food for comfort and not cuz I need fuel just to live , but this is the first post I totally Agee with from 2004 I gain about 100lbs due to post traumatic stress I love food and when I eat it make me not think but after it hit me like a ton of bricks and then I say to myself what have I done and is doing to my self, I also did not tell my family I only told my two daughters, I am so worried and if I am doing the right thing and how I would feel.
