  1. Have an IUD and haven't had a period in 2yrs..then after the sleeve they have returned. Went to the gyno..and she believes its just all the changes going on in my body. Had an ultrasound just to see if the IUD was still in place..its all good
  2. I am almost 3 months out and I am losing mine. I have long thick and curly hair. Mine looks very stringy since its curly so next week I'm getting it cut. My hair is beautiful and as a fat girl I always embraced it because it was all I had that made me feel pretty. Now I am feeling better about myself after 42 lbs lost and I think I can handle the change. Maybe its time to try something new..for the 'new' you.
  3. I am an ultrasound tech..and I have tried to look at my sleeve and I can't tell. But that's me..and my mid section is still quite large..I'm only about 3 months out.I can say this though..unless there is something quite unusual, the techs are usually focused on what the physician has ordered us to investigate..in your case we would be concentrating on that precious cargo you are carrying. Good luck:)
  4. Jan 7th..10lbs pre op and down 30lbs since surgery..glad to see some are in the same range. My NUT said I'm right where I should be.
  5. ..I was gonna say wheat thins. Bought a box and could NOT leave them alone. Really scared me because I believe I could probably eat them all in a day. I will never go there again
  6. I'm so missing carbonated drinks of all sorts..root beer sounds delicious
  7. Yep been there done that..was sleeved on jan 7th and hit the stall at 2 weeks for about 3 weeks. Its so frustrating I know but it does break. I know with me and all my years of dieting hell to consume less than 1000 calories and NOT lose weight? Just can't wrap my mind around that but hang in there it will start again. Oh and if you can stay off the scale for awhile..hard to do yes I know. Good luck

  10. Very very frustrating..trying to stay positive
  11. 1/7...lost 13lbs the first week and a half and now nothing! Hope it starts up again soon
  12. Its awful..this woman at my work takes garlic pills..I'm about to die. Ugh. I'm also cold all the time..before surgery I would sweat!
  13. I'm 2 weeks post op..and I am super sensitive to smells now. Bad breath..it really bothers me and if someone has it in the room..I can smell it right away. At first I was paranoid and I thought it was me...nope its not me. This is driving me nuts. Anyone else experiencing changes in their senses?
