I needed the full five but Im a slow healer. I had a lot of muscle pain around my stomach area and had a hard time learning initially how to keep foods down. Glad I stayed home as long as I did. Sent from my XT1254 using the BariatricPal App

Happy you did well on surgery!! I'm 6 mo post op and doing great....100# Down. Dr. Cronk was my Dr as well. I had problems with refried Beans or any beans during that phase so I would recommend trying a little slowly and see how your stomach and digestive system handles them. They can be a bit much at first. Sent from my XT1254 using the BariatricPal App

I used dr. Cronk at Methodist in January 2016. Very happy with surgery and their follow up care program. Overall their care is the most personable. Sent from my XT1254 using the BariatricPal App

I got sleeved Jan. 20th and have lost 60 lbs. I had a lot of trouble in the beginning getting sick...spitting up everything I tried to eat when the nutritionist tried advancing my diet. I learned my stomach just wasn't ready and went back to the previous stage of eating for another week or two, then I'd try it again and be fine. Some people just advance slower than others. Just remember the reason WHY you did the surgery. Yes. It's hard it the beginning missing out on things. But the reward and feeling good about yourself again is sooo worth the battle upfront. It doesn't last forever. I'm 3 months in and just starting to expand my diet out...and I'm OK with that... I'm a slow healer. But I'm so glad I'm a sleever!
