  1. Currently 50lbs from my goal weight and this by far has been the hardest journey of my life. I have been admitted into the hospital for severe Dehydration,  I have been well for a couple weeks an then BAM the last couple days back to feeling ruff... My gurd is controlled some times I dont need my heartburn meds other times I live on them. Im loosing slowly at this point but I consider that a blessing as I  have lost a lot very quickly in the beginning of my journey, I do want to feel better. I try foods that I would think would work well with my new stomach some times its a big fail 2 days ago it was avacado I hovered over the porcline god an prayed for releif as I sometimes dont understand, I often times crave carbs and Im trying to control my cravings but its so hard... My sugar tends to drop really low and that makes me very ill Im happy with my progress but often times think WTF did I do to myself, feeling down today as I just dont feel well at all :(

      I am not... One day at a time at this point some days are good others not so much but Im trying and that counts

  2. So this morning I hit my 70lb weight loss however at what cost?  It has been just 9 weeks and I feel that maybe that is a bit to fast and in a hurry.... The last 5-6 days have been very very hard i can not eat anything I currently can not even drink water with out getting sick to my stomach and or throwing up :( Im not sure what Im doing wrong yesterday I managed to get all My viatmins in however I dont think i will be that luck today :( I figured maybe heartburn but I dont think so as that is something I have delt with from day one...My PCP just put me on a new Meds So I stopped it and pray it gets out of my system quickly and I can be back on a good food and water regiman at this point I feel horrible :( and am regretting hole heart every thing I have done to my body becuase currently and most of the last week I have felt horrible

  3. 56lbs down and seen my doc and he asked me to try to decrease my Omeprozal as he said I am on a very high dose some days Im fine to not take so many but the last 2 days I have ate very little due to my burning heart my stomach has been in knots an just have very much wanted to throw up; :( Im ready to throw in the towel im feeling very frustrated at this point

      Don't throw in the towel yet, you have come WAY too far to try and turn around now. I see you have lost 56 pounds, that is a great feat, and I know that you're body is feeling better and deep down it feels absolutely AMAZING to fit in clothes that you never thought that you would be able to fit in again! I would go and talk to you're surgeon and ask him if he can reduce the dose of the omeprazole. Tell him how you are feeling and what your PCP said to you and the two of them can come to and educated decision as to the dose that you should maintain. This is a easy fix so please don't go back now! We both have more pounds to loose and quite more life to live at a much reduced weight! :)

      Nope, you need the meds. You aren't even 2 months out, and you'll likely need it for 6 months. (Hopefully you'll be able to decrease or cut it out after that point). Just go back on your med until you can find out if there would be benefit to taking less PPI and adding an H2 blocker. (or something like that).

    August Sleevers-How are you doing??

    I am just walking everyday doing very min strength training--- I honestly think Me being upset to my stomach a lot has something to do with the weight I take all my Vitmins I do not weigh myself but once every couple weeks it keeps me motivated i also every 2 weeks do my measurements I try to focus on being healthy not just the weight ... alot easier that way good luck my friend

      Yay! Congrats to you, I hope you're doing something to celebrate this huge milestone. I had my hiatal hernia repaired during my surgery, so not having to take any GERD/Acid Reflux Rx's since surgery is wonderful. I do take 1 Acidphex Rx daily, though, since we have to ensure we don't get ulcers post-op. I'm so proud of you, just think where you'll be on your birthday, girl!

    Dumping sleevers

    I have had this happen one time exactly two days ago... I am not sure if it is because I ate one two many bites, I had about 8-10 bites or Im not sure if It was the frozen yogurt ice pop I however had my heart wanting to explode out of my chest I became hot and dizzy worst feeling I have had since pre-op I walked for nearly two hours around my yard until finally it stopped. I do hope it happens to get better for you as I never want it to happen again mannnnnn Sending good vibes your way

    Sick to my stomach :(

    I am almost six weeks post op and I still feel sick no matter what I eat or drink even following all the rules I have learned to take everything extra extra slow because it is no fun to get air in your stomach or NO fun to feel sick. Good luck and I hope your sick to your stomach feeling goes away or at least gets better as Im hoping mine does too

    I'm upset...

    The one thing I have learned is that everyone has their own journey just hold tight keep working the program and the weight will come off. I just had an almost 2 week stall that I did not loose one single pound I thought the same things "what did I do?" "why is this not working" "Im hardly eating and staying my same weight" "what did I do wrong" IT WILL PICK UP just keep working the program GOOD LUCK <3
  10. My stall is over :)  Im excited and I think I will start out on the treadmill tonight and go get some things to do strength training tonight Im excited to be loosing again even if its just 2 lbs I have almost made it to 50lbs :) im excited to have this time to do great things for me :) today will be a good day
