I take Iron chewable. I shouldn't be pregnant because I had an IUD placed. I have been spotting on and off because of my period deciding to regulate. I will let you guys know. I want labs taken tomorrow, will ask when I get call from doctors office tomorrow. Yea back at work.

7weeks

So I had posted the other day that I was depressed. I still am having those down feelings but I think it's coming from extreme lack of energy. I take my vitamins and drink plenty of water. I called my doctors office and left a message. But all I have energy for is sleeping. Any one else felt like this?

Ok so I just thought I was "sad" at first but now I am coming to conclusion that I am depressed. Like stay home all the time, sleep till really late (it's 1pm and writing this in bed) skipped my training session, house is a mess, low sex drive, nothing makes me happy depressed. I hate this feeling, I want to just shake it off. Just don't know how.

I lost 10lbs my first week as well and stalled on the 2nd for a whole week. After that I have been loosing slowly but consistently. Keep focused!!

So that time has come to make room for new transition clothes cause my old sizes 2-3x and 18-20's don't fit anymore. Yay! I feel a little sad cause some of the clothes are really cute. Thinking of donating or selling on eBay in bundles, not sure yet. I really don't want to go crazy on shopping so I am wearing a lot of the same clothes over and over lol. Plus I have a trip to Hawaii in May, so I am waiting till then for a little shopping splurge.

I did the same thing 2 weeks ago. Refusing to eat/drink. I have to force myself. Barely ate anything in 2 days. I decided that I might as well eat what my sleeve can take. Keeping in mind protein first. But my body is nauseous at the thought of protein shakes. So I had 2 meatballs one day and 3 bites of thin crust/meaty pizza today. Not the best choices but something rather than nothing. Anyone else has gone through this? Last time I did it only lasted 2-3 days then I was back on my shakes. Forcing liquids as well

214lbs today

Thanks guys :-) Yea for some reason the hospital I work at has a no water bottle at nurses station rule. I don't know why, it's the only place that I have worked at that has this rule. Hope ur situation gets better :-)

Ok so I am 5 1/2 weeks post op. tonight at work ( I am a nurse) I had a very difficult patient who pulled out everything and anything and peed on me. Basically a really bad night. I didn't get to eat for almost 12 hrs let alone sit down. During the end of my shift I went into the kitchen area and there was big plate of chocolate chip cookies someone baked and brought in. I automatically grabbed one and stuffed it in face. Half way through my cookie I stopped myself and threw it away. I feel ashamed I let my emotions/ stress get to me where I shoved a cookie in my mouth like that. Sad part is that I didn't get the awful sick feeling people talk about when they eat high sugared food ( wish I did so I would NOT be tempted to be bad) I guess I am stressed, tired and wanting to vent. Hope I didn't ruin everything

My NUT told me today 1200 calories and I am 5weeks out. I looked at her like she was crazy! I can only do around 500 calories tops!

I had been wondering about calories as Well. I can only tolerate 400-600 a day. I am 5 weeks out. I see my doctor and nutritionist this week and they better have enough time for me cause I have tons of questions. Lol

Hey ladies. So aunt flow arrive but one with spotting. I thought she would really visit and stay for the week but guess she stayed only for weekend. My GYN called me today and I am to go for a US at 230pm. Has this happened to anyone?

So the only thing besides 1 bottle of water and 1 protein shake I can tolerate today is crackers. Now this makes me nervous cause I don't want to derail

Thanks guys. Drinking fluids and Popsicles :-/

I have been like this since I Went back to work 3 days ago. I work night shift, so I am sure it's messed up my eating schedule. I just forced myself to drink a shake but very slowly cause I feel nausea just thinking I have to drink it. I had a Little urine out put this morning and that's about it. Gonna try some water now.

The past two days I haven't want to eat anything at all. I did have some banana yesterday and it went down horribly. But I haven't want to drink my protein shakes etc... Been forcing myself really to keep on top of my nutrition. Is this normal at some point?

Amazing!!

Oh man had a piece of banana. Pouch hates it and now I am paying for it. What the heck is the foam all about??

Omg I was sleeved a month and 2 days ago. I suffered from amenorrhea (no periods)due to PCOS. Guess Who came this morning after years being MIA? Aunt flow! I know it sounds silly but I am so excited! My pipes work! Thanks to the sleeve!!

Wow. Comments and people like this make me not want to visit this site. Don't we have moderators?

I try and hold it, cause I hate throwing up. But I have come really close.

Agree with everyone. This operation is a weight loss tool, not magic. This is a website for support and to share our experiences. We also have to put effort and follow a new way of living which includes eating healthy.
