Late December Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

6 day stall after GAINING 3 lbs on day 7 post op. I posted before and people say this happens, but I’m still feeling super bummed. I’m exactly two weeks out and have lost only 7 lbs since surgery.

I’ve had anxiety and depression in the past but have been clear for about two years and I am worried about such a biological change triggering that to come back. Anyway, I know what anxiety feels like so I can understand how you feel. Relax. This seems like a great move and safe operation with a couple months of discomfort for a lifetime of skinny living. I’m excited. Are you too?

I had my Sleeve surgery on 12/12 and I feel like my depression has been lifted some, the thought that I'm losing weight and I might end up feeling like a completely different person is exciting! I do still worry about my success but I'm just in the beginning stages of this process. I go to my follow up appointment tomorrow! Looking forward to being released to exercise with weights!

I’m about the same as you. Very disappointed. Going for my two week appointment tomorrow.

Tried my chewable vitamins today. I got so nauseated I am not sure how I am going to get them down. Anyone else having issues with this?

I got nauseated with my first chewable too. Now I just take a small bite, slowly chew, wait a minute or two, then take another small nibble. Takes longer but doesn't make me sick.

I've been taking mine for a week and still get a little nauseated. This morning I tried chewing the calcium citrate tablet 30 times like I'm supposed to with some food and that helped a little. Tonight I'm going to try taking the Calcium citrate tablet 2 hours before the Flintstones chewables, taking all 3 at once was making me really sick.

Mine we fine for two weeks, now all of a sudden they make me extremely nauseous and sick for like 30 minutes. I’m just going to start taking them in the afternoon, so at least if I’m sick I won’t be at work :( It really sucks.

Bariatric Pal offers vitamin patches or you can try the liquid vitamins. I think Walgreens or CVS may carry them. I hope you get some relief.

I was but then switched over to Ollie brand (at Target). Taste like a Gummy bear, delicious and I'm familiar with the company, very high quality. No issues at all - I look forward to taking them.

Me too - surgery on 12/29 lost 16lbs first 5 days (!) but scale has been frozen for last 7 days until this am, and up 1 lb. VERY discouraging.

If I drink too much or too fast, it hits me in the gut like a ton of bricks! Try to get down what you can.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
