Everything was great. Started south beach diet then got weighed in 251 surgery 230 post op 1 wk 223. Great humerous and educated about surgery. Was skeptical at first about results after but was walking after surgery and came home next day. Great experience to have this was suggested by neurologist .

Thanks for sharing your experience! It would be great for the community if you could give us a little more detail about your procedure, like why you had it done, your tips for getting good results, and pros/cons on the whole process.

Congratulations on having the surgery. What are you eating? I too was vomiting because I didn't know my limit. It took awhile for me toget use to my new stostomach size. Someone else I know, was vomiting due to the fact her stomach was entirely too small. She had to have a balloon type device put in her to stretch her stomach. It basically can be a number of reasons why you can't hold any food down. You may need to follow-up with your sergeon.
