You look gorg!!!!

Thanks ladies for you kind words and support. I am not going to give up and I'll get the app and start keeping up with what I eat and add you all. It's nice to know that I'm not alone. I started out at 265 for those who were wondering. I am getting married in november and I soooo badly wanted to be at 200 or less by then.
-
I will have to get the app for my fitness pal. I'm honestly just feeling like a failure. I'm happy off the ones that are succeeding but it really is upsetting that I am not seeing results for myself.
-
Thank you for the encouraging words. I walk 3-4 times a week and I have a VERY active 2 year old. It just seems every time I come on this site I realize that I'm not having the success everyone else is, and that was my biggest fear all along. I don't have a myfitnesspal, sorry. I really do appreciate your response.

I am wondering if I will lose anymore freaking weight!? I was sleeved on may 1st and I have only lost 30 pounds. It's really frustrating reading the posts on here about those losing 30 pound in like 2 weeks or something crazy like that. I was a self pay and I am just wondering if I wasted $15k. I haven't lost a pound in 3 weeks. I'm just very discouraged at this point and I could literally just cry!!!

I was sleeved in may 1st and I am in a stall also. I keep freaking out thinking that I've stretched my sleeve or something
-
I am 9-10 weeks out and all I have lost is 30 lbs and I haven't lost in 2 weeks. Have I stretched my sleeve ???? Is this over for me??? I'm really upset and discouraged
-
I didn't get the 3 week stall either. I live in La and it is HOTT and HUMID right now, and I haven't been getting enough water in probably. My goal is to refocus on my sleeve, I've kinda been wrapped up with other things. Wish me luck!
-
Very true!!!!
-
Is it normal to be at a stall at around this time after surgery? I lost my job on the 22nd and I feel like since then I have at a stall. Could stress cause a stall? Just curious....
-
I never once had acid reflux until surgery and it sucks! What is the reason for it? What can I take?
-
-
I had mine for 8 days and it was hell
-
After being sleeved can we still take laxatives? I'm constipated and about to take 2 but wanted opinions first
-
I worried too. But don't stress about that they come for all sizes
-
Can feel the "old me" coming back and it feels amazing. Everyday I have more confidence than the day before. Family friends and coworkers are noticing my results and it is so rewarding! Im just in a really exciting place right now and I feel like I'm getting control of my life back. I am only 5 weeks post op do I know this is only the beginning but I'm down 26 pounds. 26 pounds that I will never see again!!!!! Being a sleevester was the best decision for me.

I had my drain for a week and it was terribly painful for me to have it removed. It was quick so that was a relief! My dr warned me that it would be painful though so at least I was warned!
-
I would think gas
-
I tried about 2 weeks out and I was fine
-
So me and my family went to a cookout and swimming today and being out in the heat (I live in Louisiana) was more difficult than I imagined. I have a headache and I've had one all day. I did get sunburned and I tried to drink as much as possible but I just feel like the sun was too draining. On another note, I wasn't at all hungry! I was the only sober person there lol (I was sleeved on May1st).
-
It's so exciting!! I wonder what new things I wil be doing in one month!!!
-
Hahah this is great!
-
Before getting sleeved I was having a lot of pain in my feet, especially in my heels. I haven't had any foot pain since my surgery!!! Since surgery I haven't had a headache, which I usually got one at least twice a week. And lastly, I painted my own toenails )). Yayy for a small victory!!!!!
-
I'm adding the Facebook group when I get home! That's awesome!
-
I have a nsv! I painted my toenails today!!!
