  1. 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?
  2. I am 10 weeks out, down 53 lbs and my stomach ACHES! Anyone know why this might be happening?
  3. I am 10 weeks post op and wondering what a typical day of eating looks like for you! Anyone willing to share their day of food? Grateful!
  4. Sleeved on July 28, down 31 lbs Dr has me on 2 Protein shakes a day and almond milk Soups now at week 5. Come week 6 and 7I "get" to add 2 tbsp of oatmeal and a fruit to my shake! What are you eating at week 5 6 & 7? I want normalcy! Not pizza and carp but salmon and salad? chicken breast? Please share any week 5 6 and 7 diets

    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.

    I guess I should be concerned! I haven't had a bowel movement in 5 days. But, I'm still on full liquids. No pain! Should I be concerned?

  12. Today I begin full liquids. Any great soup recipes? Any good tips? I'm nervous to start next phase but sick of clears!!! What are you eating on full liquids & how much!
  13. I am feeling great but have intense lower back pain when I lay down. I have support pillows, etc. is this related?
  14. I am 8 days post op! I had diarrhea at day 3 & 4. Nothing since. Should I be concerned that I'm not pooping? Then again, I'm on clear liquids for 2 weeks. Thoughts?
  15. I bought a kids sippy cup and it's working well! I hope that may help someone!
  16. I am on clear liquids for 2 weeks post op! Wonder why I can't have pudding. And no protien for me until 3 rd week in soups! I'd love some cold sf pudding right now????
  17. 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!

    5 days post op

    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!
