Ty. I guess that happens sometime' date=' remember your stomach has changed and now you have to get to know it again. I know you can do it. I have faith in you. How is your healing going?[/quote']

The only pain I feel comes from the incisions as far as the inside I'm starting to question what he did, nothing makes me sick and I don't get that full feeling I are a cup of Jello at one sitting... I shouldn't have been able to do that

I am experiencing the exact same thing. Everything has been a breeze. no pain, no nausea, no issues with anything I eat, no sense of feeling full, I am 10 days out and feel normal except my stomach itching so much from the healing. I started questioning if I got the sleeve instead but have to remind myself I no longer suffer from acid reflux which I had bad before and would be worse now if I had the sleeve.

Exactly! I haven't had any internal discomfort! Just the incisions. I'm 7 days out. I do get a slight full feeling, but it quickly fades, I don't get hungry, I just get not full. Lol. Its really hard to explain.

Instead of that old totally uncomfortable feeling of full or stuffed that I used to get before surgery, I now just get a feeling of I just don't want anymore. That urge to over eat is gone!! seems like my head is in control now not my stomach.

Does that make sense?

Exactly! Jesus sometimes explaining these feelings is trying to get a blind man to imagine color! Lol.

Was going great but have stalled and am slightly gaining over the last 4 days. I'm wondering if its because I am completely blocked up. I tried taking milk of magnesia last week and it left me feeling sick and weak all night long. Scared to try Magnesium citrate cause it may make me go too much to the point of dehydration. I'm now putting Benefiber in my water/mio mix to see if it helps. Not seeing any loss and the slight gaining is kinda defeating.

My doctor said no laxatives, only stool softners. So tomorrow that's what I will be buying as well. Good luck and just don't give up
