I had to laugh at some of these replies bc i indeed experienced the terrible gas pain that had me in tears!!! I popped gas x strips like crazy I felt like i was some type of drug addict with the gasX. Im almosy 6 weeks post op...i at first i wasnt hungry much but then started getting hungry.also i never knew it would cost me so much and be so annoying to figure out which other protein shake I would like bc i got tired of the one i was already drinking. Protein shakes make me gag especially if it's a new type im trying for first time

I had a hernia repair also during my sleeve on dec 14 2015. It was pretty awesome...i no longer have acid reflux issues anymore, and you will only have one extra hole right below your rib cage area.

My husband and i have been doing fine . I have been sleeve for 6 weeks out now...hes been supporting me the entire time..i dont know exaclty what younand your husbanf are going through but as mentioned in frankiegirl post try counseling

I got sleeved 12/14/15 and my starting weight was 243 i am now at 222.4 and at a halt. Its been a little over a month and for the past week and half ive been back n forth from 219 to 222 i dont understand what im doing wrong. I walk on treadmill 3 times a week for 1 hour. Im beginning to think this surgery wasnt the best thing for me.

I had 2 c sections and I would say the gastric pain was worse bc i had a hernia repaired as well and getting up was the worst.i even told the nurse id rather have v section pain than this sleeve pain

I purchased these a week ago tasted the fruit punch flavor ans its disgusting the actual protein shakes are better than these I drink premier protein shakes the strawberry n cream flavor which only has 1 gram sugar and is 30 grams per container

We will make it

We will all get through this im really hoping it merely is just a stall for us all.

@ jss1988 ....we all can do this. I hope n pray this wasnt a waste and the only thing i lose is 20 lbs.i see so many people who lose 80 or more lbd.

Funny i had a breakdown an s cried one day bc i couldn't eat like i use to...i thought maybe im going crazy and I knew no one else was experiencing that. My husband told me to keep my mind occupied and keep myself busy while im out of work from surgery and i will not want to eat

Thanks Babbs ..i know those sweets were part of my bad eating habits before i got the sleeve and contribute to some of my weight gain.

Im also have a pantry full of protein powder bc ive tried so many and they are gross...i drinking premier strawberry and cream flavor but i have to take a lactaid pill due to being lactose intolerant. What can i mix with the powder to make taste better..i tried alomond milk unsweet with fruits still disgusting leaves an after taste and foams too much for me

Has anyone ever cheated just a little in first few weeks after getting sleeved? I mean we all arent perfect and make mistakes.. i did cheat 1 time and oh boy did i pay for it..i ate a really thin slice of red velvet cake. I felt terrible, will cheating once stretch my new stomach...i had to get a hiatal hernia removed also

I drink at least 2 protein shakes a day 8 oz 30 grams. Thanks everyone for the encouragement
