Nice job !! If you don't mind your height and pre surgery weight? And how is your hair loss??

My Hair loss has been crazy it scares me.

I was sleeved on Sept 14th' date=' down 81.4 pounds as of today since day of surgery [/quote']

Wow thats great!!! What was your starting weight and your height? Oh ams how is your hair loss?? Im 5'4 amd start weight the day od surgery was 231 lbs.

Im 4 months today. Down 53 lbs

Today is my 4 month anniversary yay!! U started at 231 lbs... today 178 lbs down 53 lbs. Im so amazed and happy I hope it keeps going. I am losing hair like crazy hope it stops soon. I do have more energy though.

I feel your pain. I started Biotin 3 months prior to surgery and I am still losing hair at an alarming rate. Surgery was 9/4 and Hair loss started in Dec. Those of you who are newly sleeved and saying you're not losing hair yet...just wait. Mine started at exactly 3 months after surgery and has become horrid. I have no actual bald spots -yet-' date=' but I worry they're coming bc my hair is getting alarmingly thin. Seeing my stylist Wed to talk about possible extensions or a wig. I'm a basket case bc I really want it to stop! So sad...good luck, but I have done all Vitamins and Proteins right and it still happened. I think we just have to suffer through and one day it will stop. Ugh...[/quote']

Hi its our 4 month anniversary hope tour doing well. Was wondering if you wanna chat about your journey?

I did some research and they say it will grow back. Im gonna stay positive and tell myself it will grow back, but I will be better at taking Vitamins and getting my Protein.< /p>

Hi I had my surgery on 9/4 to and like the other person with the same surgery day I to started losing my hair at exactly 3 months out. The loss is scaring the Crap out of me, my hair used to be very thick but now at 4 months out it is VERY THIN!! I stopped Vitamins for about 2 months just because I kept forgetting. I now set my phone alarm to remind me to take them. I am taking Biotin and took biotin 3 months before surgery. I hope out stops or at least slowed down because it scares me. I'll keep you updated.

Ok here is my update. December 4th was my 3 month I weighed in at 187 lbs. For a total loss of 44 lbs.. I'm happy and very surprised that I lost that much. I'm looking forward to the next month. I still eat between 3 and 4 oz. snack on cheese and turkey pepperoni . Have to get back track taking my Vitamins though and start drinking more I feel very tiered a lot. Got cleared for the gym so I hope I start soon my 2 yr old twins make thanks a bit hard sometimes lol. Well good luck everyone else and talk to Ya soon .

Wow yes we are close. I had problems to I was in for 6 days. Its seems allow but in actual it's amazing. I remember watching the scale go up thinking it qiuld never go down but does. Looks like your on the same loss as me. Its good to have someone so close. How are you eating now?

Yea your Doug great. I was sleeved on 9/4/12 and I'm down 35 lbs in 9 weeks so happy never thought it was possible

Thanksb you were right. 9 weeks lost 4 lbs. Down to 196

Well I'm. 8 weeks out now and I weigh 200lbs with a loss of 31 lbs.. this week I did not loose any weight so I'm a little nervous. I'm very happy about my loss so far and hope I have a loss next week. I am still eating around 3oz a meal sometimes I'm hungry . I still don't drink enough and have to remember my Vitamins. Anyone else have a stall in weight loss??

I'm six weeks out and eat 3 oz of food..2 times a day, is that to much??

Thank you

I am 4 weeks out I felt after 1week like I was hungry I asked myself did they really take my stomach lol. Then puree I ate but got hungry sometimes. Then I started to go away. If I got hungry 1z of cottage cheese ur a string cheese or 1oz cheddar and I was ok. Now at 4 weeks I only feel hungry if I go along time between meals, like 6 hours after waking up. It does get better.

My starting weight was 244 the day of surgery 231 and 1 month later I'm at 209....22 lbs lost since surgery I'm amazed that happened and excited for the next month. I eat 2 oz to to three times a day and a snack of cheese or cottage cheese or tuna. My bigest problems is drinking enough but I hope that Changes. I do feel hungry sometimes a small amount takes it away hope it stays like that.

Wow very nice job keep up the good work you look great and deserve to be happy.

Ok I am 4 weeks out of surgery and only down a pound for this week, well atleast its something. I weigh in every Tuesday I forgot to post yesterday. On the 4 th is my 1 month so I will weigh in again. I can see a differnce so happy but scared still I'm not going to do as well as the people on here. My bigest problem is drinking so dehydrated and week I'm sick of the drinks but I'm also never thirsty it seems. I have to remind myself to drink. Thanks for reading this and thanks for all u people that post it helps me a lot.

Question....is there anything we can drink besides crystal light ..I need ideas tired of the same stuff:) thanks .

Oh I forgot I have a question...I eat 2ozs about 3 times a day and maybe some cottage cheese but when I eat cottage cheese I can eat 3oz somtimes 3.5, that's only with cottage cheese though is that ok? Or should I keep at 2 oz even though it don't fill me?

Ok well today is my 3 week post surgery and I'm at 211 lbs that 20 pounds since surgery. I'm happy the scale is moving and for once in my looking forward to see what I weigh every week.
