  1. It's a process and everyone is different I'm 5 months post and 50 pounds down I still get the gurgling stomach. I keep Tums on my car, purse, and beside my bed. Take it slowly, don't worry about heavy exercise right now. Concentrate on learning your new eating habits. Oh yeah I still have slight discomfort for the surgery sites Hang in there and take the pressure off of yourself Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Cruising after VSG

    I too will cruise 7 months after surgery. Don't worry too much about other folks. As for you water decorate it with fruit and sip on. Don't let one event or one person undermind your progress. Have fun cause you know you will be looking fine. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Introduction from Indiana

    Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed your post. I too don't care for the protein drinks. Amazon has a protein water that I like. Sometime s I add a flavor water pack to give it more flavor. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Wow! The cost of Surgery.

    My bill was 40,000+ my out of pocket was 150.00 which I paid today. Serving my country paid off tri-care. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Pooping is stressful!

    I use miralax too but most days nothing. I guess it's nothing in there to poop out. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Depression

    Surgery can cause hormones inbalance but I'm not sure how soon after or to what extent. Try googling vsg surgery and hormones. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

  11. Don't be surprised if you find it comes and goes. I'm 7 weeks and my acid is aweful. Now I came from the lap band to the sleeve. I know it's temporary but it is the worse feeling in the world. Im still not comfortable eating meats so I don't. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Any April surgery buddies

    Hi ladies my surgery was 2/27. I wanted to tell you that Amazon has a flavored protein water that is not bad. I pour it over ice chips and sip it. Good luck to you. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

    Food wont stay down

    My doctor told me to back off of some solid foods (meats have a hard time going down). My biggest problem is I'm eating too fast ( I kinda of knew this). So today I'm going to reset, I also don't think I'm eating enough or often enough so I'm going to keep my premier protein drink on hand and sip on it between meals and through out the day. Hopefully this will help.
