Hey at my one month post op I lost 21 lbs. I am now at four months post op and have lost 52 lbs. Don't worry, it's a process and you will lose more.

Thanks for the heads up. I am taking Levothyroxine and my dosage has been lowered also.

I stalled at the end of my 2nd week and didn't lose anything for eight days. I was so upset and thought I wasn't going to lose anymore. It broke and I kept losing. Now I come to expect a stall at the beginning of each month which lasts 5 days. I have lost 52 pounds in four months. So, don't worry. It will be over before you know it.

Wow, you are so young. I just looked at your profile and it showed you were over 300 lbs. Did you have any comorbities? You were brave for doing something so drastic at your age. I hope everything goes well for you after everything you have gone through. I don't know if you are the youngest person to go through this or not. Good luck.

I used to love skim milk. For some reason, my sleeve doesn't want to tolerate it. Soy milk doesn't do it for me either. I guess I have to give it more time or maybe I just can't drink it anymore.

YAY!!!!!!! Good for you.

I lost really fast in the beginning. I was sleeved 12/7 and lost 21 pounds that month. I go through periods of not losing weight for a week, then I will lose 8 pounds total for the month. I know it is frustrating, but your body is going thru alot right now. You will start losing again.

I am sorry you are going through this. Maybe he is worried that he is going to lose you and is going about it the wrong way. He might think that someone will steal you away from him. I think you need to have a conversation with him about how he is acting. It isn't cool.

My husband has told me the same thing.

If you feel it is something serious, then you should get checked out. I don't know what is wrong, but it sounds worrisome.

Our relationship has always been great, but we are having sex more often and I love it. Sorry if TMI.

You can go to the chat room if there is anyone in there.

no pressure was put on the stomach.

We got busy two weeks later, but were very careful since I was still sensitive.

YES!!!!!!!!! Best decision ever made.

My first 2 weeks was clear liquids only, then full liquids. After that soft foods, then solid. Did you surgeon or Nut give you a plan of what you should do? Peanut butter and crackers seems a little much to me.

There are many on this forum that had or still have a leak. You should do a search in the search box and put in "Leak. It will show all the topics with leak in it. I know of one that went through this problem. Her name is Jasleeve. She had a rough time also. I am sorry you have to go through this. Maybe this will help.

Good for you!! Keep up the good work!

Sooooo....I have been craving soda like you wouldn't believe. I have even been dreaming about drinking it. My surgeon had even told me not to have it. I finally caved in today and had a few sips. Well, it didn't kill me, but I am probably not going to have anymore for a very long, long while. The fizziness made air get stuck in my chest and was very uncomfortable. At least I am not craving anymore. I am 3 1/2 months post op, so it was probably too early anyway.

I broke out when I used the Nectar protein Fuzzy Navel. I switched to the strawberry kiwi and didn't have anymore problems after that.

It was allowed on my pre-op stage and the 2 week clear liquid stage after surgery. It had 23 grams of protein. I got a rash and was allergic to it, so I had to try a different one. Don't worry, you will do just fine. Just do what your doctor tells you to do.

I was on the pre-op diet for 2 days only and lost 7 pounds. I was having broth, water, crystal light, and also have the Nectar protein Fuzzy Navel. The fuzzy navel made me break out and I couldn't take it anymore. I switched to the strawberry kiwi. I was very hungry, so I just drank as much as I could. But anyway, hope this helps.

Hey, you've lost 40 pounds. It's wonderful. Don't worry about what other people are thinking, be happy with yourself. It will show eventually and everyone will see it. What matters now is what you are feeling and how you feel like you look.

I thought Muscle Milk tasted gross, in my opinion. I like the Premier Protein drinks. I'd like to try to second one you listed, it sounds good.

Salmon baked- I am 14 weeks post op. So you guys will get there soon.
