Are you taking any PPI's? They are like nexium to help reduce the acids which mimics hunger feeling. I'd inquire about it. I'm on for six months. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

5 weeks out and I've learned sips of Water will help those hunger pains. Acid in your stomach is the reason your feeling that. It gets better when you get to purée you should feel lots more satisfied. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thought I had MS last year was a horrible year. Once symptoms went away three of my doctors highly recommended I get the sleeve and the sooner the better. Best thing I could have done. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Right now getting your Water and Protein is most important don't worry about calories right now. 64 oz water and 60-80 grams of protein. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I recently had the sleeve and if I feel a hunger pain a sip of Water takes it right away. I've learned to keep water with me all the time and eat my 3 healthy meals a day and as you see the scale go down it sure helps to choose to continue to eat heat. Good luck to you!

Mindi definitely call your office and really work on your Water. Your probably in a stall and it will pass once you get back to your routine. Call about that infection though too! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Good morning everyone. I'm so excited I just hit my first 20 lb loss! This has been the best decision I have ever made. I want to live long and be the best Nana to my grand babies for many years to come. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

That's very normal at first since your stomach is so swollen. I'd still try to sip though so you don't irritate anything. It will be the same with other liquids at first like Soups and things. Once you get to purée stage I found that is when it told me your full stop eating or drinking. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Your surgeon will be sure to tell the anesthesiologist if they find you have sleep apnea. I had no problem. I'm sure you'll do fine since you will be totally under. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Wow you sure have lost a lot. I bet it feels really good though. Glad they are helping you along the way. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Why do they think you are losing so fast. Are there issues with losing faster? Did they suggest for you to change anything? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm 3 weeks today. I have followed the plan. Stomach takes 6 weeks to heal so it's really important. Once you get to purée stage it's pretty nice. Although I felt so full I forgot to get all Water in and became dehydrated. Sip sip sip. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Pam so glad things are going good for you. I have to tell you how important it is to sip on Water and get 64 oz everyday. Since I started purée I didn't drink like I did on fluids and yesterday I had the worst headache and so tired. My clinic took me off work rest of week and to do fluids for an entire day again. I never thought this would happen to me because I love water. But with the smaller stomach purée fills me up and I totally ignored my water. Just so you are aware. They say water is always first.

Aww Mindi he's adorable! Thinking about you! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I thought the same thing at first like well this isn't going to work like the 500 million diets I tried. lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had the same issue. Now 3 days on purée and it's totally different for me too. Just measure everything it's going to all be ok once you get to next stage. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi, My name is Patty. I'm almost 53. Sleeved 12-28 and I had no issues at all. I woke up in recovery in shock that I felt no pain and I never did. I never used any pains pills. I hope the same for you. I weighed 287 and now weigh 270. It's amazing and wished I could have done this years ago. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Good luck to you!

Maybe try to change Water temp as well. I'd take smaller sips but keep on sipping. Try to walk still too often that helped me when I got that feeling. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm doing really well. Just started puréed stage on Wed and I'm really liking it. Can have a much wider variety of foods. I was so ready liquids were getting very old and I was feeling hunger. When do you get to go to puréed? How are you feeling otherwise? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Sleeved on 12-28 had the best experience. No issues at all. Going back to work this week. Down 17 lbs so glad I did this! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
