  1. They will pass. ! I find with the sleeve mind you I am still new since may 30 2014 but with the sleeve I find it is easier to ignore them and then they go away . I remember in 97 how hard it was for me to quit drinking sodas but after about 6 months the cravings started to leave now I don't even think of them .. Look at the cravings like drug with drawl the sooner you stop the maddens the healthier one will be !

    Hungry

    It might be stomach acid mimic hunger I have that problem going to talk to the dr on 31 July 2014 . But I take nexium am Pepcid 2 times a day and eat Pepcid complete 2 -3 times a day it seems to help with the hungrier pains to stop but don't know . I do know the stomach acid is no where near what it was at .
  5. I have told a lot of people . I also get positive feed back they all seem happy I chose it since they have all watch me struggle with weight . The problem if you don't tell them the first thing they think is you are dying of something to lose the weight that fast . I had a friend that has not seen me since I was 430 pounds before the band and I dropped a 100 pounds with it before it failed . Well I did not tell him anything and he asked me if I was ok one day and I said yea why he said well u lost a lot of weight really fast .i said yea it great don't you think ? He said well hell yea but how I was not going to tell him but it just game out and he said oh wow glad you did the band . So I asked what he really thought abd he said either illegal drugs or I contracted cancer or something else . So from that point on I just started talking about my weight problem from day one to the sleeve . I get a lot of obese people talking to me about the three choices and why I chose what I chose . You never know who you might be helping with being up front . Don't get me wrong I get how it's no ones business also but I figure I would like people to know . I am almost two months out may 30,2014 of the sleeve surgery and people seem to notice a lot of the weight loss I still have not lol
  6. I had my revision may 30 2014 I feel great pain wise . I feel the food gets stuck where the band was around . I have a lot of stomach acid that mimics hunger . I sometimes will feel a pain where the port was and it some times feels like it's still there the port that is or something is rock hard some times .

    Nausea and Heartburn

    I found if I take nexium and Pepcid twice a day and eat Pepcid completes two times a day it puts the acid in check and I stay full . If I just do the nexium and Pepcid I feel the acid and it makes me feel hungry . If I just take my Pepcid twice a day I get real bad heartburn . Hope this info helps I just had my surgery may 30 2014
  13. I drink muscle milk light . Eat a can of tuna . And refried beans from Taco Bell . Some times string cheese . I am still in the soft foods stage. . I discovers baby bell cheese lights 50 cal .. I will indulge in a sugar free Popsicle or fudgesicle . Cottage cheese 2 -3 spoon full apple sauce and sugar free pudding and jello .

  16. Here is a question ? If you achieve close to goal weight and stall would it stand to reason it might be hanging skin I am sure there is some kind of weight the skin weighs ?
