    Has anyone experienced any depression since being sleeved? I have been sad for at least 3 weeks.

    My scars are keloiding so bad. I use coco butter but they are getting worse as the days go by. I am 7 weeks out and down 37#.
  7. I was sleeved on March 22. To date, I have gone from 244 down to 217. Most people would be thrilled with that but I'm not. The day that I was sleeved, I weighed 228. I was losing more without the sleeve. I have experienced the most painful constipation known to man! I don't know why I'm not losing. Can anyone help me figure out why?
  8. Thank you. I am a nervous wreck. I am beating myself up. Everyone is expecting me to be bone thin and honestly so am I. I appreciate everyone's kind words and advice.
  9. I just want to be sure I am not doing anything that is hindering my weight loss.
  10. Thank you for the encouragement. I have been becoming really depressed. I don't want to be an emotional eater.
  11. I have been following my doctor's orders as closely as possible. I walk and log my food. I have a hard time with the protein. I'm very frustrated because I want to lose weight and I'm not.

    We were sleeved on the same day. I haven't even noticed the bm being missed. That's a great lose. I am down 25# but that's including my pre op diet.

    Hey everyone! I just wanted to check in and say I'm doing well. Dr. Almanza did a great job. I'm confirming my realization that I'm an emotional eater. Fear of messing up keeps me from giving into it. Hope everyone is doing well! Oh and I'm down 8# since my surgery. 24# total! Praise God!
  15. Today I tried Cytomax Protein performance drink. It has no carbs or sugar. It has 40g of protein. It is 100% whey protein and lactose free. It taste like an Orange popscicle. [ATTACH]2645[/ATTACH]
  16. I do recommend liquids as long as humanly possible. They used very little gas on me. I do however feel like I should feel full and I don't.

    Not Eating Enough

    I was sleeved on the 22nd. I am still hungry. I can drink fluids with no problem. That scares me. What could be wrong or is this normal?
  18. I got sleeved yesterday by Dr. Almanza. He did a fantastic job. I only experienced slight discomfort. I'm so pleased with my decision.

    Good Morning everyone! This is the day that the Lord has made. I WILL rejoice and be glad in it! God has blessed me with the resources necessary to pay for my sleeve. I am so thankful that I will be traveling into Mexico this morning to have my sleeve done. I'm thanking my Heavenly Father for safe travel, compentant doctors and hospital staff, a swift recovery and last but certainly not least, weight loss that will motivate myself as well as others. I am thankful for the improvements in my health and to my self esteem. I am thankful that the quality of life for myself and my family can only get better than it already is. I love You Lord! I am so thankful!

    Protein Drink

    No I have not seen them elsewhere BUT I was flying to san Diego to have my surgery and in the skymall magazine, they had quite a few options. They were in 3oz vials and had lots of protein. 100 calories. Go to skymall.com and see what you think.
