Topic: RE: vent...soda and family issues...long
It is disrespectful if she loves you really... the pop deal.. it IS your home for one.. As a recovering alcoholic also for many yrs.. It is unspoken that people wont be using alcohol in my home unless there is an event where I welcome it for other...doesnt happen but.. whatever..LOL...I love diet coke.. my addiction when quit smoking 2 yrs after quitting drinking... Now I just buy one bottle..open it..take one painful sip.. and let it go flat.....then drink it!! that or use some water and tons of ice cubes to take carbonation out..LOL.. One day my baby brother even shook one up for me as hard as he could to make it flat so could drink super cold!! Now thats love..LOL..I too have a sis who has ALWAYS been skinny..but never needed to diet ever.. I am only a clothes size different from her now.. When I share my wt loss goals or sizes with her she always says....dont get tooooo skinny...what the heck???? She even attended her 20 yr class reunion where many of my friends were at and askin her about me etc.. she got weird with them!!! Didn't praise my wt loss etc.. which too me hurt. I have lost 90 lbs including my presurg wt.. but about 70 since surgery.. and only 40 to go to surgeons goal!!!.. She is my only sister.. and I know how bad you are hurting.. I think like the other posters mentioned it is a jealousy thing....she's smaller, my sis is taller..  etc.. My sis even referred to me as her AA sister...cuz someone sent me a photo of her being drunk.....so I feel your pain.. but remember.. regardless....stand up and don't be ashamed.. you are making huge steps towards your health and not easy or simple ones by any means!!!! Like I think my sis seems to think at times..Much love and prayers your way...

Topic: RE: Embarrassing problem...
Sooo glad seen this post. I usually dont use this forum.. I am having the same problem again.. The only time it seemed to get better was when I was drinking STRICTLY delivered bottled water for EVERYTHING even cooking.. and that was last month... I moved and now am back to same issue.. I have resorted finally to a Imodium a day!!! I can't stay hydrated or have energy if not.. I am planning on contacting my Dr to get checked for C difficile..it is so bad.. been about 3 1/2 months of it!! I will let you know if I find out... I can't take it anymore and am staying with my parents again for this month...I am so sick I cant even get on good diet plan cuz I feel so miserable and crave bread for my aching tummy!!!  I have ate enough cheese to plug up the hole in the ozone without any help also. I am now out of state from my surgeon so I cant another surgeon to take me on down here so ...Im stuck..I am tired of sitting on the toilet sick!!!!! any suggestions???

What about nausua meds? I was on them in the hospital but I know some stay on them at home. Is it too far along for that? I would ask.

I don't think so - because it gets sick AFTER  I put something in it.  LOL.

Topic: RE: NAUSEA @ 4 months out
I too have been very nauseous for sometime now. I also have been having the dry heaves for about 4 weeks....went to the doctor yesterday and am having a scope done on Friday. He believes that the opening to my pouch is too small (i guess this is what they call a stricture) and is planning to stretch it out some. I can't wait....I have not been able to eat more than 3 tbsp at a time and water is the only thing that really goes down with ease!

Hope you feel better soon!

I feel yucky when my sleeve is empty. Is that what it is?

It could also be how much you have to lose, if not that much, you will lose slower. But 55 lbs seems good to me.

Oh My god.  I am getting so tired of this.  No vomiting, but almost EVERY morning I get nauseous.  No matter WHAT I put in my pouch....to eat, or drink.  I get the upset tummy.  Anyone else?????
