high-five bedhead, it is actually fun to get on scale now!

Thank you for the link!

i had surgery 2/6, i gained weight pre-op, so it includes pre-op gain and hospital IV bloating gain...

i weighed myself 2 times today, first time in life to ever see scale go down twice

i cant wait to get where you are! thanks 4 the encouragement!

Woooo Hooo! This is amazing almost unreal! its worth the sacrifice!

i didnt think or state that it kept your hair from falling out, thats why i said "maintain"... it makes it grow, therefore helps the shedding

WOO HOO!!! This is just the beggining!! I pray your surgery goes well!

my surgeon told me the same thing...getting enough protein will help, however i didnt ignore this tip from someone who said the loss of food eventually takes a toll on your body.

thanks so much, im gonna checkmit out in Walmart.

that's great! im impressed how u handled this situation

i was just given a tip that taking a biotin supplement helps with maintining your hair and keeps nails from getting brittle, i took some chewable biotin today...

Day 3 was terrible for me too, day 4 i felt soooo much better

liquid tylenol i felt the same way, im surprised they gave u a pill though, the oxyco was annoying to me, doesnt stop pain just knocks u out.... ice chips for ur throat

i always pee after i sip 1 ounce every 5 minutes for a hour for some reason

u may have to decrease sodium a tad, its natural that ur body is fighting the weight loss

i was sleeved on Monday, i am still drinking out of medicine cup 1 ounce every 5 to 6 minutes....it takes some time to get all the fluids in but its goes down well that way

Congrats on ur new sleeve! no worries, we all make typo's on these ipad's

i can easily see the height increase with less gravitational pull on ur spine... I have heard also u can can inches "there" too, and its not just an illusion from smaller stomach

oh wow, a new recliner, lucky u!

Thanks so much sunnyd! feels good to get to this point!

i have been having watery bowel movements, almost everyday....since i have been sleeved on 2/6

One of my relatives who had bypass a few years ago, suggested that i sleep in a recliner chair. Let me tell you, it helped a milion with the pain, I was sleeved on 2/6/2012... getting in and out of bed hurt so bad, but now sleeping in recliner pain is almost gone, dont even feel like i need the meds.

yes, some folks i have no problem sharing...

i think that its all the more reason not to mention, i got sleeved on Monday and see first hand now that its a lot of will power and work on ur own...
