Girl that's the thing I don't know about you but I have not told anyone about my wls only mom, sister and husband and son know! I have had too many negative comments about it without them knowing I did and I just don't feel I need to share I feel safe in a private type environment like this but would totally be easier on fb but a secret page not public or even private ! Wish I knew of more in the closet wls people lol :-)

Hey guys, anyone here in weilos that I can add for additional support? Or know of a private FB page I can be added to that's not public for all to read on fb??

What's is your name on Weilos hun??

Following :-) thanks! It helps to know other also that have done the Gastric Sleeve :-)

Inshallah you will be fine in another day or 2! As for passing gas I never did either as many did via bottom I did however burp a lot the more I walked and I would light tap my chest when felt discomfort (like a baby) and burp also! May this new journey be easy on you ameen! Salams and Eid Mubarak

Had mine in Tijuana also in 9/6/14! You will do fine!

I did Sept. 6th!!! I hope scales starts moving for us both!

Thanks :-) I have had 8 days of 6 ounce loss I was like What the Heck I'm not grazing or cheating and doing good with protein still trying to get more water in but was feeling super down! So happy you are losing again and off that horrible stall! This too shall pass! :-)

HAS ANYONE STARTED GOING TO GYM?? I'm thinking to start I had my sleeve on 9/6/14!! Need feedback plz! I have been walking 2-5 miles daily since 5 days post op but since scale is moving extremely slow in thinking its gym time!

When did you have surgery???? I'm the same and scale almost 4 weeks post op is dragging ounces at a time! :-(

Omg I'm so happy to read this thread! I'm 3 weeks out all this past week after losing 17 lbs nothing happened NO LOSE in spite of walking daily over 4 miles and following completely my diet plan! :-( I was feeling very down till I read this!

Woot woot how exciting!!!

Talk to your Dr. I hear and am told by many that they didn't really follow pre op due to medical or simply cheating with bad food up until 3 days before surgery! But def talk to your Dr. 10 is still enough time to get better! Hope you get through this ASAP! Keep us posted :-)

Hey SherriPark do you have a weilos account it's great and so inspiring and you can follow people! If you do look me up plz FabNewMe :-)

Ok this was my experience: I had surgery in TJ Mexico (best decision ever for me)! On Friday 9/5/14 I arrived to San Diego and taken to TJ Marriott then later we did a group tour which was great and met post op patients, had surgery 9/6/14 with 2 others that day, it was at a med spa hospital wow very upscale and got VIP treatment even my husband loved the service (they spoiled him)! Had surgery around 9:30am and dont really know what time I got out my husband says about 1.5 hours and woke up with blankets on me in a recoop. area didn't really feel pain or anything just needed to cough (sore throat) a few hours later was put in a private room and asked if I wanted to walk or felt ready I did about 5 -10 min then sat down on bed a bit laid and walked around off and on that night but did feel like I want to vomit but it was actually gas (burps) what helped me was ice chips when I had little moister in mouth I burped and it helped. Next morning they took me to 2 level to be were my husband slept (look like a modern NY style hotel room) that whole day I walked sat out in the center entailment/lunch room with out patients and chatted a bit or watched movies but mainly walk or sit on my room watching tv on lounge chair. Nurses changed my bandages after my shower and had some good broths and juice, really taken care of and felt comfortable. Next day early 9am got my leak test and all was great! I felt little sore I won't deny that but no pain at all I could stand. We then by my request we taken back to San Diego were we rented a car and did tourist thing went to beaches and to a great Phò shop for my broth (yumm)! Flew back next morning to Dallas and I am now 7 days post op and feeling good although I did leave work early cause my office chair is hard to move in! Last night I walked 1 mile and night before also but felt lots of gas release which helped me sleep perfect all night for the first time since op. Dr. Alejandro Lopez and team are so worth it even if a little (not much) pricier then the others but can't compare his new Med Spa location to anyone else's! Going back to this Med Spa for Mommy makeover for certain! I'm still on liquids but maybe mid week will phase off the next stage! I'm getting about 30-40 oz of water and 40-50 of Protein! Taking liquid vitamins (iron, calcium, multi, B and D). So wish I had done this years ago I'm just happy I stop believing I loved my self just as I was although inside me hated when I saw weight restrictions stopping me from enjoying fun with my son and husband! :-)

Thank you!! Good luck on yours too :-)

Hi love, great to hear another Dr. Lopez patient is here! He doesn't do Plastic Surgery but at the new place he is OP from in TJ it is fabulous it's called Vida Med Spa or Vida Med Spa Hospital they have the best PS around I met a few repeat patience of the place and they gave me more confidence to go back there! How long ago did your have surgery?

I have been regular but always have been also I am now 8 days post op! I'm meeting all my protein intake and Dr did tell me don't skimp on your protein it will help you in all aspects. Sorry for tmi here but day 3 PO I had this weird #2 it's was like when baby is born that first poop they do black and tar sticky like, since that day I got regular bowel. Nurse did say and I had read other exp. a black bowel like #2 as being normal and good to come out.

That's wonderful! You will be very happy..... It's no easy solution as many who don't understand think but to me so worth it! Congrats and good luck!

. That's is wonderful I have not weighed myself trying to hold off a month 10/6 yikes I don't know if I will make it :-)

HOPE YOU GET BETTER! walking really helped me get that gas pain out my right side of chest!

Wow 31 since 9/4???

Congrats so happy for you!! Keep up the good work!
