Hello everyone, I'm seven weeks out and down 31 lbs. I am officially in a size 14, hooray! I haven't notice any hair loss yet. I am enjoying the unrestricted solids. Life is great for me right now!!!

Congrats!!! I'm almost six weeks out and have only lost 17. currently on a stall. Hope to join you in the lossing soon.

Congratulations! I am also 5 weeks out but have only lost 17 pounds. the scale is not moving at all for the last 31/2 weeks. any advise?

that sounds great, I am 51/2 weeks out and have only lost 17 pounds. Im really frustrated because I see how everyone is loosing tons of weight compare to me. I have not lost a pound for 31/2 weeks. Is there something wrong with me?

Tomorrow I will be 1 month out and I'm down 17 lbs. I know it's going down slow, but I'm so happy that the scale it's finally moving after a week stall. 45 pounds to goal, I wonder how long that's going to take.

I I was having the same problem, until I spoke with my kaiser's case carrier. She said that everything liquid accounts for your 64oz of fluids. She said to Have the protein first, once i got all of that in i can include the water and any other liquids you want. This has really saved me.

I only feel itching in the incisions too, but I do feel tingling all over my body , mainly in the extremities. This happens when j go to bed at migt. I haven't been taking any vitamins and I will be two weeks out on Tuesday's. I KNOW, IM A BAD PATIENT. I read that vitamin deficiencies can cause tingling sensation. Today I went and bought my b12, calcium and vit D. Hopefully this will help. HAS ANYONE EXPERIENCED THIS?

Hang in there, tme will fly. I'm on my 11th and I feel almost 100% better.

It's great to see that we are all (surgery sisters) recovering well. I'm Having a little trouble taking in all the fluids, but working on it. I have also lost about the same amount.

Jan 24th at 9:40am - I'm also recovering at home and have lost 11 lbs.

I totally get you Tenshi, I do not deal good with pain and it was a disaster. Well It is my 4 th day out today had a little bump on the road, but have now refocused on the thing I need for me to successful. I haven't lost any weight now, hope that's normal. I am sipping water throughout the day and having the isopure protein and kefrin yogurt. So far today: two ounces of protein, two of yogurt and four of water. Little steps I guess.

OMG! I'm so close to the day. Will be at the hospital at 5:30am tomorrow. The anesthesiologist will check and determined if I can go under with this cold and cough. Hoping for a miracle!

How exciting! Two days for me and still battling with a cough. Good luck!

My surgery is at 9:30am, I must check in at 6am. I'm very excited, no cold feet yet. I just hope I get rid of this cold by Tuesday. STAY POSITIVE!

Yes! I'm getting sleeved on the 24th. How exciting, we can follow each others progress.
