I cannot find the 6-8oz bottles of Isopure and I cannot stand the 20oz bottles. The smaller ones are much more tolerable to me.

Yay for you! That is great. So many more wonderful things are ahead!!!!! Good luck!

I am 6 weeks out and have read that stretching can happen but it is very minimal.

Good luck!

I also agree with Tiff. You should see a doctor and just do a medically supervised diet plan. You don't have that much to lose. It would not be worth it to do that to your body for just 30 or so pounds! Good luck.

Congrats! Just be patient......

I get on my Wii Fit Plus everyday. Love it. I always do my body tests and my favorite is the step exercises. There is plenty to do on their that is fun. Good luck!

I have been putting off exercise but I know that I will not lose the weight without exercise as well. I am joining a gym today and signing up for a Zumba class that starts in Feb. I have always been afraid of what others think of me and now I really don't care. I am doing this for me not them! Good luck to us all!!!

You look GREAT! Keep up the good work.

You look great! I can't wait to get all this weight off and be able to buy cute clothes! I live in sweats right now.

I had my surgery on December 6, 2010 at the age of 34.

I bought a scale at WalMart that records your weight, goal weight and BMI. It tells me everyday how much I have gained and or lost and how much more I have to lose to get to my goal weight. It records up to 4 users. I love it. It cost under $20.

Congrats to you! Hope you have a very happy healthy pregnancy.

Thanks for sharing that. I found it very interesting!

Congrats to you! Enjoy your journey. Good luck.

I was a full D cup and I am just 5 weeks post op and my breasts are starting to look flat. I have no volume, no nothing. I told my husband before surgery that I wanted a tummy tuck and boob job after I lose all my weight. He agreed so at least I know I won't have to put up with sagging boobs forever. I LIKE having boobs and it is important to me for them to be in place and not at my knees! lol

Congrats to you!!!!! You should be so very proud of yourself. Keep up the good work.

Congrats to you! YAY!!!!

I was told I could have bananas at 4 weeks post op during the mushy stage. It is all up to the surgeon though.

The first 2 weeks after surgery I was on liquids only then the next 2 weeks were creamy soups and yogurt. I just started mushy foods like Cream of Wheat and anything I can mash a fork through. Your able to eat things sooner than I was. I will be 5 weeks out Monday. Just stick with it and no it is only a temporary thing! Good luck.

Congrats!

I was going to join a Zumba class this month but decided to get under 200 before I try it out. I have never been one to exercise so I thought I would lose a few more pounds first. I can't wait to try it out. Everyone talks about how fun it is!

I have BCBS of IL and I had to do 3 months of dieting with my PCP, nutrionist visit, Psych evaluation was required through my insurance. My surgeon wanted the sleep study and EGD. My insurance covered everything without question. Of course even though we have the same insurance, all policies are written differently.

I am also 4 weeks out and I can only eat about a 1/2 cup at a time, maybe a cup, but no more than that. I have read that after sleeve surgery your tummy only holds 1 - 5 ounces of food. Just remember to chew, chew, chew and take it slow!

I have to take 6 chewables a day so feel lucky. I just got some samples today from my doctor, bariatric advantage. I tried rasberry and it wasn't bad at all.
