I made it to ONEderland! I am 198 down 42 lbs in 9 weeks, but not without trouble and some regrets. I knew this was going to be hard but I had no idea how hard. Some days I wish I was just normal again. Every day is such a struggle to eat, everything makes m nauseas nothing even sounds good. It's more a chore to eat. I am having trouble getting fluids in on my days off work bc I'm not as active and just forget to drink. Where at work I remind myself constantly to drink. Could I be getting dehydrated? Is that why I am having such a hard time eating? Oh and did I mention I throw up almost every day! I need advice and encouragement some kinda bad!!! help

@sess what did the dr office say? I'm feeling a little better working really hard to get fluids in. I hope your feeling better!

Anyone have any favorite workout videos they use at home?

Cool thanks everyone!

Jmbaker27 everyone add me! Down 38 lbs in 8 weeks! Whoop!

My surgeon gave me a medical card staying I had "stomach surgery" and need to be allowed to order off the kids menu. This helps w portion size as well as cutting the cost of a meal.

Anyone eat lean cuisine or healthy choice type meals sometimes for lunch?

Does anyone ever eat lean cuisine or healthy choice meals for like lunch at work??

I get hiccups everytime I eat? Anyone else have this problem or any suggestions on making it stop?

Thanks that makes sense!

How much are u guys taking in calorie wise daily? I'm on the oft mechanical stage and i don't know exacts how much I should be eating. Some daily food menu examples would be great!

No thats not so than a little length the stomachs are gauged in size by either a 24 French tube, so for the most part all stomachs Are approximately the same size post surgery

I don't know what mi doing wrong... I'm 3 wks out on soft diet eating under 700 calories a day and getting 69-80 G protein and m fluids in... Scale hasn't moved in 10 days? Depressed

Same problem sleeved 2/25 lost 10 pounds the first week and scale hasn't moved in a week.

How soon after surgery did everyone start working out and what did you start out doing? I'm only 1 1/2 weeks post op but as soon as I get the clear I want to get on the workout train!

I'm 3 weeks post op, lost 10 pounds the first 2 weeks but the scale hasn't moved in a week! Sad! Beginning to wonder if I'm foist to fail at this, if this is going to work for me, has anyone else gone through this?

Have you gotten past it and if so how? I'm so frustrated I know I shouldn't be and that stalls are normal but it's hard not to get discouraged!

Make me vomit! I'm so tired of Special K shakes and refried beans! Every time I try to eat I get nauseas I'm so tired of liquid! Blah: ok rant over!

I have implanon birth control implant in my arm, I haven't had a pd in about 2 yrs. I was sleeved a week ago and have lost 21 lbs but when I got up this morning I was spotting. I haven't seen Aunt Flo in so long it freaked me out. Is this just bc of the rapid weight loss and hormone changes or should I call my obgyn?

I am one week post op started full liquids, I was so hungry I ate a bite of scrambles egg amd chewed until it was water. But now I'm worried I messed something up even though I don't feel bad and nothing happened. Did anyone add foods or eat something earlier than they were suppose to?

I'm day 4 postoperative and having trouble getting my fluids in! My urine is dark today, think I'm getting dehydrated? But can't take any more than I already am, what do I do?

Thanks everyone! This afternoon I am feeling mich better! I've. Been walking and so far sugar free Popsicles are my best friend! I'm going home tomorrow. I hope being home in my own place will help. Thanks for the encouragement everyone!

Wth have I done to myself! My stomach hurts do bad from what I can only assume is gas. I am nauseas and light headed! Just had my swallow study and thought I was gonna pass out! Someone please tell me it gets better!
