Hi Linda! I had surgery 8-14 and have lost 60 lbs. I feel sick every day after eating in the A.M. and if I eat too fast. I really have to concentrate on eating slowly. I find I also feel sick sometimes if I eat foods high in fat or if I eat too many carbs. I drink pepermint tea and it seems to make me feel better. I am just starting to feel full when I eat, not just sick. I also think I feel sick if I do not drink enough water. I hope things get better for you! I think we are still recovering, and things will sit better in our new pouches in a few more months. Good Luck!!

I know what you mean. I am still having problems with chicken and find it easier to avoid it all together then suffer with the discomfort it causes. I love soy crisps and have them with string cheese. They are very easy on the pouch!

Carol, Congratulations!!! Wow your weight loss is fantastic...I haven't loss that much but I am loosing and feeling really good. I go for my three month appointment on Tuesday. Hugs and great job!!! Traci

I understand your frustration. I have lost 43 lbs since my surgery on 8-29. I often feel like I am eating too much or able to drink too much in one swallow. Although I measure my food most of the time and I am only able to take in 3.5 oz of food at a meal. I work out 5 days a week 2 of those with a trainer, so what I am hearing is I need to increase my protein and water then the scale will move. How are you doing with water and protein??

I'm just getting so frustrated and ready to give up. I follow all the rules excercise and all that stuff but the scale is not MOVING!!!!! I have lost 48lbs since 08/04 surgery. I'm not even looking for drastic moves just a couple of lbs a week. I feel like my pouch is the size of a tennis ball at least and that's more food than want to eat...
