    skinnynursebetty got a reaction from jlf1982 in Sleeping After Gastric Sleeve Surgery   
    I slept on the couch for the first night home then went to my bed but slept very propped up with like 3 pillows for about 3 or 4 days. After about a week I was able to sleep on my side/tummy again with no problem.

    I SO want to be able to do this too. I'm completely obsessed with weighing everyday and I don't think it is helping my stress level. I'm going to go ahead and try this out. We'll see if it works. I will really try my hardest. Weight today was 197.8!

    This is GREAT! I'm feeling like I didn't do too well with eating this last week in the sense that I have hardly eaten. I am so stressed over school it is just terring up my tummy! I have NO appetite. Also I had a cocktail yesterday for "lunch". I was out with a group to study for school and a few of us had cocktails. I just had one it was my first in a VERY LONG time. It gave me a buzz right away, but didn't affect me in any bad way, so that was good to know I guess that I can still have a drink once in a while! I just didn't eat lunch and that was not good. I also have not been good on my Water intake some days I don't drink any and that is BAD! AND, I have been forgetting to take my vitamins! Sorry this is long, just needed to get it off my chest and to people who would understand where I'm coming from! I really need to get back on track. OH, one more thing! So, I've lost 55lbs so far and am feeling like a saggy old lady! I've lost my butt, and my boobs hang down to my toes, lol. My skin is feeling saggy and I just don't know what to think. I know I need to get back to the gym. Hopefully very soon school will lighten up and I can workout more! Thanks for listening. I appreciate you all.

    Don't worry, I happened to me to! I consider myself a slow loser and that's ok with me. It's still coming off! You will have drops, then nothing or just a little but don't think It won't work for you because it physically has to! Just stay on track and the weight will start to come off again!

    Just DO IT! It will be the best decision you'll ever make. There may be struggles, but in the end it is all going to be worth it! Research a lot and spend hours on this board before, and after. I LOVE this board and all the wonderful people and their support! Also find a support group you can go to before, it really helped me get a lot of questions answered and I still go and LOVE my group!

    If you have unusual symptoms or things just don't feel right,,call your doctor. Although vst is very helpful and has lots of knowledge, don't come to the forums for answers because you could have something serious going on and wasting valuable time.

Hopefully next week will be better. Congrats to everyone, you are all doing awesome. Sleeve4me, so proud of you for going to the gym! Love my VSG family! See ya next week!

    Sophia, YOU are one strong woman and in the end you WILL turn this around and everything is going to be ok. You already started by exercising! Just keep focused on that and eating the right nutritious foods! Everyone here loves you and is here for you if you need us for anything, even a shoulder to cry on. Stay positive and hold strong to your faith and you will come out on top! Hugs, Beth
