My journey has been hard. Had my gall bladder removed also and had a bile leak and pancreatitis. Hospitalized for 9 days. Luckily the sleeve part was a success .0

Hi, I had my sleeve 6/2008. I lost over 115 pounds and I have kept it off for the majority of the years. I had a hysterectomy 7/2014 and I slowly gained 15 pounds. I joined this group to hear your stories and for motivation.0

Bugged53 hopefully once you get more substance in you it will change. Remember to drink protien like clear zero carb isopure protien drink. I had the skeeve 3.5 weeks ago. I sometimes feel a little hungry but not like before . My brain wants to eat like it used to but the stomach says no way. Good luck to you0

In reading everyones stories I've really realized that everyone's body reacts differently. Some people never get the hunger feeling back, I didn't have it for the first month but ever since I've noticed if I go to long between eating that I get really strong painful hunger pains, worse than I've ever felt before. It really is a learning process and figuring out how to listen to your body and finding the best ways to get healthy. My doctors told me that you eventually get into the routine of 3 meals a day with a protein snack. Some people get there almost right away, I'm not sure I will, I have to eat very small portions 5-6 times a day still (4 1/2 months out) and now they tell me it might always be that way. Which is fine, I am just learning the best ways to do it while getting in all the important stuff. You'll get there too0 -
Sleeved 1/13/15. I get the hunger pains but I think it is when I'm thirsty. After I drink some water I feel much better. I'm trying to use those ques to help me get my water intake up.0

All great info to have in the bank for my future surgery. Thanks everyone.0

Hi I would also love more friends. I had my sleeve on Jan 12th, 2015 so 6 weeks ago. The first month I was starving. These last 2 weeks I'm still hungry but it's not as bad. I also started walking on week 5 and I think that helped with the hunger. My problem is that I have not been able to keep any food down except apple sauce, bananas and grapes. I can only take one bite when I eat. All other food stays down for about 30 min and then I get super hot with that metal taste watering up in my mouth and it comes back out. I'm very concerened because I cant drink the protien shakes either. As for water the most I have gotten down was 40 oz in one day but then I couldnt eat. Im losing lots of weight but with what my intake is there is no way its healthy weight loss. I cant even take any of the recomended multi-vitamins with it coming up but I think thats because the powder it turns into grosses me out. Anyone recomend a liquid multi vitamin?
Start of 2 week Pre-Op: 242 lbs
Current: 198
My phase 3 appt is this Monday0 -
StephanieDedrick, have you called your surgeon? Does he/she know that you are consuming so little? You can't be feeling up to doing Anything with this kind of intake and the vomiting too. Feel free to friend me. I am still pre op but will also be having the sleeve, perhaps in April/May. I can't speak from experience, but I am really doing a lot of research and I just know that this isn't a good situation. I would be calling my doc everyday until it got better. You need your protein and fluids to begin to heal.0
