Sounds good! This is an exciting time for us...we should take advantage and share! [emoji173]️ Seems like we're the only two so far...whenever you wanna spill your heart out I'm here....girl, lord knows the day before surgery I'll be a mess [emoji29][emoji24][emoji24] Lol

Im here for you but haven't had surgery yet so i know I can us the good support along this path I am taking.

I can go three weeks with no loss then lose 7 lbs. I don't actually lose 11 lbs a month but it has averaged to that over time. The stalls break and the sun comes out again! I'm not in a stall right now so I'm all positive and cheery but when they hit it really does scare me. I try so hard not to freak out though because they ALWAYS end.

Surgery was yesterday and I was scheduled a gastric bypass , but because of the scar tissue from my C-section 24 years ago . After my Dr.removed as much scar tissue as possible he was unable to perform the bypass. The sleeve was done and I feel 😊 hopefully I hold the water down so I can get to go home😜😂

I got a bad case of chills and related shaking in the hospital on the second day. I think it was a combination of lack of sleep, stress, anesthesia side effects, and stress. I experienced twice more in the subsequent days, but less and less. The Docs checked me for infection and there was none. I do agree, this is something you should contact your doctor for so they can check it out. But just to say, I had some rough cold chills and trembles during those first few days and now it appears to have receded. Good luck!

I think the exercise/eating dilemma is at play here. Exercise makes you hungry, you don't have the same restriction you once had, so you tend to eat more than you need. Even just a couple hundred extra calories a day is enough to put that kind of weight on in no time. The oft-quoted sentiment applies here: "You can't outrun your fork". Time to make a plan. Count your calories, weigh/measure, etc. It's not fun. It's not simple. But ultimately, we all have to do it, one way or another.. and not just for a year or two. It's forever.

I hope I reach this point. I'm dreaming about digging food out of the trash every single night. [emoji23]

Hi I am 2 weeks post op and I am walking 2 miles but afterwards I am so exhausted. So today I only walked 35 minutes instead of 48 and I am still totally exhausted. My Dr. said to walk 1/2 hour in the a.m and 1/2 hour in the p.m. Does anyone else have this issue with energy?

I'm almost 5 years out from revision of Rny to ds.. anything high in fat or sugar gets me. I've been at goal a few years but I bounce around 5/7 lbs. when I hit that high side I usually eat buttered popcorn or a few cookies. Gets things moving for me. You are still recovering though.. dr advice might be wise.

Oh Yeah Ok Fine Thank U so much
