Yes. First few weeks I instantly regretted my decision because I mourned food. 6 mod post op, best thing I've ever done. You're giving yourself the opportunity of a whole new life. Embrace it!

Thank you (:

You're doing great and your results are showing -- which is why you're still going. It's great that you're staying committed! Besides, doesn't apart of you feel great immediately following a work out? It's always the initial motivation that gets me Oh and knowing the for sure soreness the next morning hehe

You look happier and refreshed. You deserve it (:

I was told no NSAIDs forever because we are at in increased risk of stomach ulcers. Personal friends of mine say their doctors haven't mentioned anything to them, though.

7 months post op and realistically I know it but my eyes and brain haven't caught up with me yet.

Body dismorphic disorder

I have read that you will feel tipsy very quick. However, I had a little under half the amount of liquor that wouldve had me feeling it -- and only felt slightly woozy. I didn't try any alcohol until 5 mos out.

Also be wary of wine it contains a lot of sugar and it could make you feel sick just from that. I hear they have skinny margarita mix with no sugar. My hubby works for a food distributor so I'll post the stats on that wenever I get a chance (: have a great weekend

Ignore the baby and the duplicate. My phone wouldn't let me take them off hahaa

You go girl! Rick those jeans!!

^ i can relate to the roller coaster part <|3 here's to healthier, happier days

'Those who go through the gastric sleeve surgery are less likely to develop dumping syndrome, also called rapid gastric emptying, due to still having the pyloric valve remaining at the lower end of the stomach, but there is still a significant chance that some painful dumping may occur.'-http://www.livestrong.com/article/75886-negative-side-effects-gastric-sleeve/

It is not as common but it does happen.

I echo everyones sentiments here. I didnt set a timer, didn't get hungry or thirsty, didn't get in Protein and landed in the hospital with dehydration. Worry about staying hydrated first then the rest will fall into place soon enough.

I'm 6 months post op and still haven't gotten a new or old hunger feeling. Personal friends say they've gotten the hunger feeling back but I haven't. I guess it just depends!

Keep up the good work!

Look so great and young!!

I love this, ha! thank u!

Truly amazing! what an inspiration. Way to go!!!

Some people stay at 30g, I believe, as that causes rapid weight loss. I'm at about 60-70g on average and im down 82 ibs since feb 1. It really just depends on your level of comfortability.

Sleeved jan 31st (consider feb 1) highest weight 298, day of surgery 285, now 217!

The first two months my hair was really oily. I assumed it was my body getting rid of all the toxins I had presurgery. I don't know if that's right but it sounds reasonable ha. My hair doesn't get as greasy 4 mos out tho (:
