I was sleeved in July 2014. Began at 240 lbs and got as low as 140. I maintained at 145 for 2 years. The last 6 months, I've been eating more and noticing the scale going up. I am now 155. I'm panicking because I don't EVER want to go back to where I was. But, I'm hungry all the time. Previously, after surgery my Spouse would have to make me eat. I had my surgery in Tijuana. So I'm not sure who to see in United States to address this. Could my sleeve be broken?

OMG! I'm so jealous! I just had my 5 week appointment. My surgeon said 2 more weeks of protein shakes and full liquids! Not what I wanted to hear. If I eat 3 oz of fish am I going to stretch my sleeve? I need to be able to eat socially w friends. -

What should I take with me to Mexico?
chanale replied to okaykay's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I am 5 days post op from TJ! I recommend compression socks for flight there and home! My 2nd tip is to walk & walk a lot! Even once you go back to your hotel. Gas is painful and I am SO glad I walked a lot. I didn't have any pain! -
I feel the same way about the potential stretching! My Surgeon told me not to have more than 4 oz of fluid in a 30 minute period! I'm lucky if I can get down 2 1/2! By the way, I am 5 days out!! I am feeling well! I am having a TERRIBLE time w the medical tape, ripping my skin and burning me. It's awful! Keep up all the great work!
