Thanks... Can't really see it but I do feel it ... Nice to get encouraging feedback

Awesome! U look great, very encouraging!!

Wow good job! U look great, how much u lose? I'm 2 weeks post op and curious to know about how much is possible to lose at 6 months ...

I been takin biotin and u can also use horse hair shampoo, u can find it at the pet store or 99 cent store, when u shower put some on ur scalp or wher ever ur losing hair and ONLY condition the tips of ur hair, the horse shampoo strengthens ur scalp and there's less hair loss... Just FYI

What about burping alot!! Specially when I'm drinking water, or the chest pains when u eat or drink

Highest: 347.8 -8/4/12 preop Preop diet : 333.0 -8/15/12 day of surgery Today: 323.2 - 8/21/12 one week postop Slowly but surely I'll hit my goal !! Good luck to all !!

I'm starting to feel the pain, as all my hospital meds ware off, I been noticing that my stomache growls alot and moves alot when I eat even just taking my meds, is that normal???

Thanks guys ! I was just worried cause someone else posted a forum about listening closely to ur body because they found a leak 21/2 months later! So I'm trying to play it safe...other than the pain, I'm doing pretty good, I'm just missing being able to drink normal

SOOO...i been on my liquid diet since last wednesday and i have noticed i been sheding some weight...just today i started feeling worn out and really hungry, tired, bad mood and just realized i started spotting...mother nature decided to visit at the WRONG TIME...i will be having my surgery next wednesday aug 15th and im a lil worried. HOW AM I GOING TO HAVE SURGERY NAKED IF im on my rag?? I havent had my period in a month and a half so im sure its gonna be a lil heavy by then...so how does that work during surgery...ahhh how embarrasing...just what i was worried about... HAVE any of my sleeve ladies had this issue during surgery??

I had my surgery Wednesday too! I'm on full liquids so I can have like gerber food and cream of ---- soups , yogurt and cream of wheat ! I been good just been burping alot and getn chest pains , doc said slow it down when eating, and I tought I was eating SLOWWW LOL guess not! I've lost 6 pounds since Wednesday, I gotta walk more tho, I been walking but not enough, well good luck my fellow sleever and keep us posted!!

Thank u that's good to hear I'm not the only one with chest pains....

I don't think so... Maybe I'm just drinking too fast , I might just call my doctor to play it safe.

I was told it's because of all the air they pumped in from surgery plus we might be drinking too fast so I take a sip and slowly let it go down... It will get better I'm post op 2 days and I havent burped as much but I do get lil chest pains ... Have any of u had that??

JUST A LIL PAIN BUT NOT AS BAD AS I WAS THINKING! Im on full liquids and im drinking Isopure Protein drinks and Water - I was given pain meds and nausea meds too. So I'm doing great! I get lil chest pains here and there but they only last a few seconds, any of u get that post op? Is it normal? My starting weight was 347 (highest) and preop diet on my day of surgery 332 and 2 days post op 328.0 - wow !! I'm loving my sleeve !!

I'm at the hospital right Now!! So nervous I can't stop shaking... It's about 5:30 am, just waiting to be omitted, having second thoughts, like what the heck am I doing?!?!??!!, hope all goes well !!

Thanks guys I'll keep y'all posted!

I'm done with surgery I went in at 7:30 and was done 9:15 am. I been in my room doing very well and I been walking down the halls. I already used the potty alot 1 and 2 lol ... I have dull pain but thats about it... And I VERYYY thirsty !

Thank u all!! Much appreciated !!

Wow you look awesome!! Good job! Keep it up!!!

Okkk so my surgery is 8/15 this Wednesday but I woke up with a rash or bite of some kind and I scheduled a doctors appointment for tomorrow, the last thing I wanna hear is we r gonna reschedule ur surgery!! It's really itchy and it sorta tingels and burns and it sorta swollen hard like when u get bit by a mosquito ... Any ideas what it might be? Or if you think they will reschedule?? I attached photos please excuse my nasty cellulite .... It's on my inner thighs!! Sorry kinda graphic!!

Ok so my doctor said it's a spider bite or insect bites they r giving me antibiotics and cream. BUT IM OK FOR SURGERY TOMORROW!! yayyyyyyy!

Oh man they itch sooo bad! I'll keep you guys posted! Appointment at the doctors today at 1 pm.

I think it's a spider bite but then again there's so many! Someone meantion to me it could be ringworms from going to the gym.. Oh my god do they itch but I been good.. Don't wanna infected or spread it.

What r those? Never heard of them?
