  1. This just started for me a couple weeks ago and I'm about seven weeks out. I have started having a few tums and hunger goes away.
  2. No regrets here either.
  3. I would say no to the protein, yes to the loose clothes. I took too much. I did use gas x, chap stick and my phone. Best wishes so exciting.
  4. Best decision I ever made. I am so happy I am permanently taking control of my life. Best wishes.

  6. I can eat more soup so I tend to order soup when out with people. Some days it seems I can eat more than others too.
  7. Pretty normal though I know that doesn't help right now. Get some rest and hope you heal quickly.
  8. I think the approval call day was one of the best! Congrats!
  9. Hang in there you can do this! It's worth it and every pound you lose now is hopefully gone forever.
  10. I think everything. But seeing the scale finally move down and being able to finally be honest with myself. I'm proud I got over my fear of drs and took this step to make my life better. I'm looking forward to not running from every camera! I'm hoping to have a family photo done it's been seven years!
  11. I find it very helpful. There is also group training at my gym and that has been good too. Of course I lover swimming too, the suit not so much.
  12. Funny I'm craving Subway Tuna too.
  13. You look great. I know I am/was in denial. Then I saw a photo ugh.
  14. Sounds like old blood hope you are ok. Call the doctor that's not normal.
  15. You are doing great. Hang in there it only gets better.
  16. I'm sorry that is happening. I did not, but at seven weeks two smaller ones still have scabs. One opened at the hospital and is still healing.
  17. Was sleeved 1/25 lost for two weeks and gained five and stalled for three weeks. Finally losing again. I thought I might never lose again. Hang in there.
  18. Congrats and welcome.
  19. Congrats feel better soon.
  20. I wanted to know if I'd have a drain or catheter. I had neither. He also didn't use a bougie. I'd ask how many leaks they've had and what are the most common complications.
  21. I had the same issue and was ready to go back to the surgeon then it stopped. I think I over did working out or it was gas. I hope it goes away soon for you too. Best wishes.
