  10. Well I'm 20 wks post op and lost 100lbs, which I'm very excited I hit my first goal two weeks shy of my birthday. I still have about 60-70lbs still I want to lose, hopefully by Summer a majority of it. I was wondering with exercise if anyone has tips on fitting them in to a hectic schedule. I have four kids 2 of which are under 4yrs old and a full time job, so trying to find something that I can do at home and maybe kids can join in. Also any tips on hair loss, I know its at its worst between 3-6 months. I'm so thankful I have (well had) very thick curly hair b/c if not I would be in trouble the way it comes out and how frail it is now. Thanks for any help and info!
  11. Thank you everyone the positive words. Happy not alone and will definitely start measuring. I am looking at plus size my first digit changed lol!
  12. I have to tell the truth I am freaking ecstatic my weight starts with a 2 now.
  13. I was like wow I'm doing great doing everything I'm supposed to be doing and now its like ummmm what's going on is my scale broken... lol!
  14. This Monday I'll be 6 weeks post-op. I was losing 1-3lbs a day, I haven't changed a thing, but now I have only loss 2-3lbs in the past 2.5 weeks. I understand there will be stahls or plateaus everyone hits, but this soon and for this long?
  15. I was told the same thing, but I started using a straw this week and drink a lot more now then before.

  17. I'm just wondering if this is normal? Any suggestions on how I can get back to losing a lb or 2 a day lol! I was doing great up to 9 days ago and now I'm in a stand still, haven't loss anything and I'm only a little over 4 weeks post op. I thought you didn't hit plateaus til couple months out. I think its bc my scale knows I want to get into the 2's,

  20. WOndering if anyone has had to take this post-op..... (I'm lil over 4 weeks out)
  21. Thank you all for your input I did accidently drink from a straw (2 sips) one day while shopping at Sam's with my kids and my daughter (who's 9) made me feel like I was in trouble and being sent to my room when I got home. I burp frequently even when I drink/eat regularly. I think I'll wait til I'm at least 10 weeks out, I'm a little over 4 weeks.
  22. I'm a mom of 4, rangng in the ages of 2-13 and I'm looking for Bariatric recipe sites that would be kid-friendly as well as sleeve friendly.... Suggestions.... Only site I've really found is a ww site Emilysbites.com (i think thats it)
