mine just started thinning out at about 8 months in. I thought I had escaped it. It's not horrible but it's noticeable to me.
-
Thank you! Same to you. These two days of liquids was hard, but I did it. It was like right after surgery all over again lol
-
hope everyone has a blessed new years! also hope everyone is that much closer to their goals, weight loss and otherwise

Is cough medicine one of the taboo items?
I am aware of no ibubprofen, NSAIDS etc but that cough medicine scared me...no more for me
-
So i have a cold...about 3am this morning i took some cough medicine and OMG it felt like it was burning a hole in my stomach i was almost in tears. And then it passed.
Lemme preface this by saying i had been belching a lot last night...IDK if that contributed to it.
But has anyone had similar issues with cold/cough Syrup

I dont not get physically hungry. If I keep myself busy i will not feel the need to eat, but i definitely have the urge to eat and snack...and i get head hunger and cravings.

i am having a similar issue. My period has always been heavy but i notice that since surgery there is a day or two that is abnormally heavy. I spoke with my doc about it and he said that it's mostly hormonal and the body regulating itself.
I assumed that my period would get lighter but initially I guess it will be heavier at first

gotta look into planking!

gotta try this!

Thanks Diva!
-
Thanks so much! this is definitely a daily struggle. If it was gonna be easy i never would've gotten to the point where i needed surgery

i use the generic store brand which is Omeprazole

Just to recap, I am almost 6 mos out. I hit my 100 lb mark about 5 weeks ago and it's been downhill from there.
I am being dramatic but I have totally been pushing it, and I have been eating any and everything...in smaller portions of course, and gaining and losing the same four lbs...i am getting scared. I look and feel great, but i have at least 50 more lbs I wanna lose, and i dont wanna do surgery and weigh 245 lbs
I am especially scared to fail. So I am seeing a psychologist...i guess I need to tackle the underlying issues and i want to before i totally spiral outta control.
I guess knowing is half the battle. Wish me luck
-
i am here now...except I am 5 mos out...I hit my 100 LB goal and have been within the same 3 lbs since then.
i can do well all day but evenings after work are a nightmare...i am totally craving carbs/sweets HELPPPPPPPP

i am in the same situation now...i hit my 100lb mark last week and since then i have totally been pushing the limits and have gained 2 lbs...again its NOTHING like before but definitely way more than the beginning. tomorrow is my 5 month mark. I keep saying Monday its back to basics...i am also PMSing so that is contributing to my cravings...but generally once i see a gain it refocuses me.

Lighter Period?
in The Gals' Room
Posted
So I am almost 9 months out and my period finally seems lighter
I have ALWAYS had heavy periods. And immediately post op they seemed even heavier which my doc attributed to hormones. But this month seems i dare say "normal". lol
It's probably heavy by most people's standard but it seems normal to me. Let's see that happens next month!
