Wow well done thats awesome. U have to keep it up and learn to love the gym. I took up running and i feel great doing it. Keep it up babe. Good luck

Thanks for sharing that it makes me feel so much better knowing not all of my hair will go.

My dr. Had said that for a year post op i would experience hair loss but he didnt prepare me for just how much hair i would be losing. Everyday its falling out by the handfulls. I had really thick hair and now its getting thinner and thinner and i am so worried about going bald. Is everyone experiencing this kind of thing and what are you doing to prevent it? I'm so sad about my hair

You've done an awesome job and you look great. You're journey has only just begun enjoy the ride and as for your husband its definitely his loss and he obviously wasnt worth your time or space. Good luck.

It apparently helps u heal faster. But i dont know if thats true or a myth but why not try right..

I'm exactly 3 months post op and down 16 kilos. I think you will find as u get further into your journey that even i u do crave certain foods u can only eat a minimal amount of it and so you dont get the satisfaction u think u would. For awhile i found myself falling into bad eating habbits but the whole point of havin this surgery is to change your lifestyle so you soon realise if you use up your stomach space on empty calories which have no nutritional value u will start to feel it. Your skin gets baf, constipation sets in amongst other things and when u eat well u'll feel the difference for sure and so mentally u will start making better choices. This is not a diet its a lifestyle so u can indulge once in awhile . Good luck

Hey sally ur on the right track the coconut water is amazing. In 3 months post op and as we get it fresh here i have it a lot to perk me up when my energy is low

I beleive at this stage you should be getting between 600-800 calories in

Not getting enough water i think i have to try harder. As for nutrition i'm trying but its difficult. I actually don't enjoy eating anymore. I'm going to check if my b12 is low as from google research apparently it happens often with people who have had weightloss surgery.

So i started training at the gym finally and i'm almost 3 months post op but i feel so fatigued right after i'm done. I have no energy to do a thing. Had anyone else experienced this? I literally have to sit for 10 mins to get a tiny amount of energy to shower and then after that my day just dragssss. I even fell asleep at my work desk the other day. Is this normal?

Hey jimmy sorry for you not being well. It's good to have you back and in communication i believe the number of messages you recieved say it all. Good luck with recovery. Cuddles

I had the feeling till i was 6 weeks post op. i believe it may be something to do with the size of our openings so hang in there it does go away

I believe it is the recipe link. Lots of good stuff on there.

@rvpcindi thanks a lot for the link i just took a look at it and its amazzzzing. Just what i needed

How are you doing jimmy? All of is here are praying for you and anxious to know how you are.

I think i'm going to buy myself some nice dinnerware and for a change make dinner more about me. As for protein shots, i've never tried them. We don't get them in kenya so i suppose i'm also limite with options like that. I appreciate all the feedback from everyone atleast we can lean on each other for support. Have a wonderful week.

Lissa our dear saviour always . Thanks for that it makes me feel a lot better.

I'm not sure of anyone else feels this way but i actually hate meal times now. I feel like i cant eat much and i believe i am under eating a lot. How do you all cope with meal times and whats on everyones plate? I find eating just such a tedious task and where as i was a huge food lover i just cant handle much any more. dinner today for me was one small fish finger home made and a small meatball.

I can only call him tomorrow ( monday) but i did go for a urine test and it turns out that i have a UTI so o have to take antibiotics

Been walking and had gas x and i'm still in pain. I actually think i have developed a UTI. Do you think it will be ok for me to take antibiotics? Since i've been sleeved 2 months ago i havent had any extra medication i'm a little scared to take antibiotics incase it hurts my sleeve. I'm in so much pain and travelling on wednesday i need to get well soon.

I'm not sure if its just a muscle pull or something serious but this morning after i attempted to get out of bed (after 2 hours of watching tele) i felt a sharp pain in my right shoulder/ neck. Has anyone else experienced this? It hurts when i take a deep breath or bend down and my doc is all the way in india i'd really appreciate any response.

Well done and keep it up, i see great changes

Thats a perfect question you posted as i too have Not had kids yet and was wondering if my sleeve would affect pregnancy

Hey fell4falls i had a bit of a tummy issue a few weeks out. Maybe you have food poisoning or a bug. I dont think it will be bad if you miss out on your vitamins for a day or 2. Its happened to me coz i forgot or didnt get a chance to replenish my stocks. Why don't you double check by calling your doc

I only hac the pain killer for 2 days after i was released from the hospital. I didnt need it after as i was fine though i was sore for awhile. It took about 5 werks for me to be able to sleep on my sides again. Gravity just caused so much discomfort, but i'm fine now and feel fabulous
