  1. I had surgery on the 18th I have been using Mederma scar gel ever since the scabbing went away. I am very happy with the way my scars look. Very little discoloration. I also bought Mederma stretch mark therapy. This stuff is kind of pricey though.
  2. Sounds like Ketosis to me.
  3. Sleeved on the 18th. I am down 10lbs. since surgery 40lbs. since 4/1 on the pre op. Food still hurts a bit going down. I have had no complications and have been pretty active since being home. Doing a lot of walking since surgery. No gym or weights till 3 weeks after surgery I was told.
  4. Surgery on Monday April 18th. My last meeting with my surgeon was on 4/1 I was 311lbs. Started my pre-op diet on 4/5. I am down to 285.5 as of last night 4/16 for a total so far 25.5lbs. My goal is to lose 100lbs. 25% there already. I am feeling pretty stoked about this surgery now.
  5. Agree, My Dr. said it is from the changes going on inside your body he told me it would happen to anyone who loses weight rapidly possibly hormonal from chemical changes in your body. He said their is no proven study but he recommended biotin to me.
  6. I am being sleeved on the 18th also.
  7. Day 2 for me 2 protein shakes, vitamins, 4 oz protein and a cup of steamed non starch vegetables for dinner, 64 oz. water can have sugar free Jello and Popsicle between meals.
