I was sleeved May 7th. That is completely normal. It will get better!! I still have some reflux but not half as bad as it was the 1st and 2nd month. I panicked 2 but I promise, it gets better.

I was sleeved on May 7th. I can only eat about 3 small bites at a sitting and that is mainly meat, cheese or veggies. I am getting all my protein in and taking my vitamins so I feel healthy so far. I am loosing hair and that has me concerned but reading other post, I am praying for that to stop very soon. Good Luck!!

Praying for you this morning. I think those mixed emotions are completely normal. I am almost 4 mths out and wouldnt trade it for the world. I am now 66 lbs down and you are gonna do the same. Keep us updated when u can.

Just wondering if there is anyone from SC that has been or is going to be sleeved. Who did you use? I was sleeved Myrtle Beach by Morris J. Washington MD. He is AMAZING!!!

Thanks so much to all of you!!! Any words of wisdom is appreciated. I will try all of this. Good Luck to all of you on your continued life changing journey.

Yay!! It will get better. Everyday gets better for me and hope the same for you.

September 7th will be 4 mths for me and within this past week, I have started losing my hair. I am panicking!!! I get 60 grams of protein in a day, I have started taking Biotin an just ordered the hair therapy Nioxin. I really pray this works for me. I have not had any problems at all other than acid reflux and now the hair thinning. It has me Trippin out!!

Well, that is great to hear. I have just started getting the shots. Thanks so much. I am willing to try anything.

Heartburn has been a killer for me. Sep 7 will be 4 mths since my surgery and some days are worse than others. Dexilant is what I was on an it did not help. I am now on nexiam and it seems to be helping a little more. Tums are also my best friend. I will take this over being 233 again anyday. Hope all of you find relief soon.

All, I am almost 4 months out and I am just noticing my hair getting thin. Its really making me nervous. I am getting about 60 grams of protein in a day an just started on Biotin. Any more advice???

My Doctor told me 6 weeks out. Most people are good. I am sure that some have problems but that is part of the risk we all take. I am 3 1/2 months out and its the best decision I could have made. I have no regrets!! Good Luck Girl!! Dont let anyone make you nervous. We are all different.

I am 3 1/2 months out and I have lost 66 lbs. Protein is the answer. If your weight loss slows down, pick up on your protein intake. I try to atleast get 60 grams in a day. I can tell when I dont drink it because the scale dont move but when I do... I can loose atleast 5 lbs a week easy.
