Had mine there, Dr chopra?

Hi! I'm 24 from queens NY. I have had surgery in October 2012, feel free to shoot me a message!

Premier protein usually sold at Costco or bj's.. 30g protein 1g sugar 160 calories. Ready made, comes in chocolate, vanilla and strawberry is sold online only

6 lbs to go and im with you girl!

6 months later... [ATTACH]11831[/ATTACH]

I was sleeved 10/11/12. Im a slow loser. But grateful (and frustrated) nonetheless. SW:272 CW : 230 GW: 150-160 I still struggle with the fullness and head hunger issues. This site is great for advice though!

Lil vent session here... I know that the gastric sleeve is a tool and not a cure. My surgery weight was 272, and as of yesterday i was a delightful 230. Today , yes today I stand at a whopping 234. On every scale in my house. I followed my diet to a t, upped my Water consumption, take my Vitamins, and exercise almost daily ( kickboxing, cardio). Nothing. I thought I was happier at first, now I find that all i do is stress, stress stress. Im 100% discouraged with this surgery. Im sure when I go back for a follow up next month my dr will be disappointed. I just dont know what to do anymore. My hair is thinning, i feel bloated i am just FED UP!!!! 2012.htm

I have some. Ive tried it , about two days later a bm but then it just stops working. I was thinking of letting the dr know !

Pardon me, but I USED to have bowel movements. Now... even after fiber and a million glasses of water a day , nothing. I know it may contribute

Thanks for all the advice guys. You guys are the reason I joined this site ! I refuse to give up hope, but I get so overwhelmed sometimes. I also think I hit another stall, but I will not stop my routine!

thanks for the kind words and advice. weight can fluctuate by POUNDS in a day? im not bothered so much by the overall , because i have far more energy now than ive had in a while, but i work really hard at this weight thing. I often feel like im the only person in the world this surgery just will not work for!!

its really hard not to get discouraged when your weight was a big part of your life. I havent done any measurements yet. I have some new items that i got in a size smaller that fit, but I can also fit some of my older things too. I was just told on another forum to try Water pills.

Im 2 months out.. now usually when im approaching that time of the month my appetite goes into overdrive. Today I was able to reach 600 calories, something I normally dont do. I know it becomes easier to tolerate more fluids, but does anyone else feel like that can eat more than normally post sleeve? I feel like I ate ENTIRELY too much today !!

Nice to know im not alone ! Maybe in my head it just seems like a lot because im used to two spoonfuls of something !

Sleeved 10 /11/12 SW:272 CW:238 Slow process, sometimes discouraging but we must keep pushing right ? [ATTACH]6981[/ATTACH]

Sleeved 10/11/12 tonyareneenyc ( I need to update badly lol)

Hey ladies! I'm post op (10/11) and down 22 lbs. I've started noticing my bras no longer fit, which is great in my book because I dreadddddd my boobs. How long before you went bra shopping?

Hey guys, I was sleeved 10/11/12, and have been pretty good with the progression of my diet.. I tolerated the stages well, but ill admit: I don't get my suggested calories in daily. I do eat decent meals and balance things out, but it seems I have ZERO energy! Should I try a b-12 supplement? Any suggestion would help! Oh yeah. I'm still in this stinking 2 week stall! !

@Carol Watts, I walk a tonnn! I got the green light for that and a treadmill!
