  1. Update...two and a half years after sleeve. I am 5'9" was 210 the day of surgery in 2013. I got down to 145 after the first six months or so, which was a little too light for my frame and height. Now I am 160, and I can live with that. Ideally I would like 155, by hey 5 extra lbs is much better than 55 extra lbs.

  2. I worked it out. I take the meds with a shake now. Stopped throwing them up, thank you anyway. =)
  3. I had the sleeve not plication.
  4. I am on week two post-op sleeve. What is the deal with taking my night meds and throwing up? Talked to Dr. So, the day before yesterday and he suggested I wait 10 mins in between crushed pills. I did that last night and it felt like I was having a heart attack for about an hour; the chest pain right in the middle was horrible! Tonight, back to the throwing up. It's only at night...morning pills go down w/o a hitch. Last night felt very much like spasm in esophagus? Weird? I am sure it's not good to keep "heaving" every night, although I would take that ANY DAY over the pain I had last night (right above that upper incision). Not sure if I am obsorbing any of my night meds, they come right back up so quick. Tonight it was...my chewable post-op bariatric vitamins; along with the tiny white one and big green one (dumped out) that you all gave us. Only getting 16 ozs. of water down a day, but having liquid in protein shake and soup, does that count? Tired of tossing my cookies...just skipped my regular 2 meds tonight because I didn't was to throw-up again. =( help
  5. Having trouble getting even 32 oz. down each day. If you have a protein shake, do you need to wait an hour to drink water as well?
