Okay so I'm down 43 pounds but still in the same clothes without any change planned soon.. Hard to believe I was that fat that I was squeezing myself into clothes that still fit after such a loss.

Can't wait to be below 20's!

Thanks everyone! I feel better about it but still fill like the fat whale in the same clothes. Haha I know it will change, guess it will just be a few more months down the road. I was hoping for something quicker because my ex left me for my best friend and one of the last things he said to me was "you fat b***h." I have a meeting with him at the atty office and was hoping to rub it in his stupid face.

Are you okay? Worried about you.

Hope all goes well!

It gets better everyday!

Very much. I use to call my feet puffers... But not anymore.

Have u taken anything for pain? Mine would take hours even after pain meds. But I'm a nurse and was able to tell what exactly was wrong with me. If your hurting and are worried then go to the ER. Have u ever been told u have stones?

Sounds like it is and unfortunately it is very common after the sleeve and increased weight loss. I had mine out in surgery day just because I had so many issues before surgery. Usually it is when you eat fatty foods, spicy foods, rich foods. But don't chalk everything up to that. The pain can last for hours but it can be a hot gallbladder. Make sure that if its not relieved you go to the emergency room. If you have a temp then jus go in as well.

So I am 12 days post op and have done okay with the weight loss. But today when I weighed myself I gained 1.5 lbs from yesterday. I've been trying not to weigh myself daily but over the past few days I have not moved the scale so I was curious and saw the gain. I'm doing everything they tell me to do. I want to cry!

I had to use a scaloppine patch as well as zofran and phenergan to get over my nausea, but thank goodness I am good now.

I feel stupid for asking, but how do I reply to a thread without quoting someone. My send button stays grated out unless I quote someone ;(

I'm amazed that you get 800 calories in. I am always feeling stuffed and maybe get in 500 per day. I'm having a huge struggle with Protein but I think that's due to me still being in soft phase and I am so tired of Protein shakes. I'm so full with a shake that it takes me half a day to drink one and no room for other food. MFP: brenrn

Nausea can be the worst but I'm very glad you are doing better and heading home. Congrats!

Glad to hear things will look up. I've only had my surgery on the 25th but expected to me a little further along then this. My labs are good. Maybe I. Just need to continue working on the fluids. Thanks so much!

When does the week feeling go away. I get tired easily and feel like I'm not in my right mind. I'm ready to get moving but have lost my mojo!
