wearing full make up when they show up at the gym

with matching

headbands

sneakers

and outfits

who come into class and complain about the instructors

and the routines

and how the old instructor was so much better

UGGGGHHHHHH! We are here to stinkin' workout' date=' get or maintain health and

get stronger. Please, I can't stand it.

Thank you, now back to your regularly scheduled programs.

And I hope I didn't offend anybody.[/quote']

Hi!!

So dos was feb 25th so I'm a few days shy of 5 months--I'm down almost 80!

Anyone have strange issues with the changing of amounts of food and liquids you can intake??

Some days I'm able to eat/drink much more than others!

I can't relate it to anything... I'm stumped!

Yes I'm 8months out and I have the same issue my sleeve changes everyday what I ate yesterday my stomach doesn't like today it can get confusing

July 5 was my one year surgiversary. I am thrilled with my results. 117 pounds down and only 25 to goal!!

You look Awesome:-) :-) I'm 8 month out and down 97 lbs

How is everyone doing?? I was sleeved 11/15 and have lost 58 lbs so far' date=' but have hit a stall for the last month or so, losing and gaining the same 2 lbs. It's so frustrating. I've joined a gym, I hired a personal trainer about 2.5 weeks ago and still NOTHING.. I don't understand.. WHen I dieted before I always got to this point and never was able to lose any more and it seems as soon as I started exercising the weight loss stopped and here we go again. Granted I have PCOS so that doesn't help matters but still! I always get between 165-157 and stop losing and here I am at 162 and NOTHING for a month. So frustrated.. I still have 37 lbs to go (but the doc says no more than another 25-30 but I don't agree)... I'm thrilled that I've lost 58 lbs so far, but gosh, I was hoping to be much much further along by now, I had been losing about 10 lbs per month until May hit! I'm not over eating, I get in my Protein and Water for the day, haven't cheated at all... UGH! LOL

Hope you are all doing well![/quote']

Surgery weight 230 11/09/12

Today 169.8

Total loss: 60.2 pounds.

I was doing very good up until february 12th, and until today i have only lost 4 pounds.

This month was very slow and hard. I was expecting to be 150 pounds by 6 months out. But that is just impossible now.

Enough talking about me. I really want to know how everyone is doing!!! Would love to see pictures attached.

I was released from hospital for pancreatitis yesterday Dr say it's not uncommon my blood sugar was 54 and that our body are in shock and that if you had diabetes you pancreas is trying regulate it self. Put it Hurt Hell

The weight gain is from the Iv fluids

It's been 3 weeks tomorrow and I have gone from 204 lbs to 191. Most if which I lost in the first week. Everyone keeps telling me they can see me losing weight but I don't see it. Why don't I see it? I have been really trying to do everything right. I was put in the hospital this past week for pancreatitis that they still don't know where that came from. I came home from that two days ago and had somehow gained 4 lbs! Which is ridiculous because I wasn't even allowed to eat or drink the whole time I was there. Back down to 191 now but I swear I have been stuck at this weight for what seems like 2 weeks. Frustrated.

Hello' date=' VSG family! I am about 2.5 months post-op and I have some issues with eating. Some days, I am able to consume about 800 calories a day. Sometimes, it is 600-or less. And getting in protein-I hover around 50 Gs a day. It is volume-I just can't seem to get things in. I have tried drinking shakes-they take me forever. My sleeve does seem to agree with fish-that and cream of wheat. It is incredibly frustrating to eat ok one day and the next, it seems nothing sits right, I feel uncomfortably full after a few bites, and my kids are starting to wonder what is wrong with me...they do not know I had the sleeve. A week ago I went out for dinner and ordered tuna-I thought it would be safe to eat. It came on a bed of greens. Well, I had a few bites, all of a sudden I felt incredibly full and uncomfortable, had to lay down immediately in the car and we left the restaurant. This isnt the first time this has happened. Another diet example is even what I ate today. I had an egg mcmuffin with no cheese...and removed part of the bun...so about 200 calories. I had a small lobster tail for lunch, at 80 calories. For dinner, I ate an ounce n a half of beef, with a few bites of salad, and the fullness kicked in. My questions are: Is this normal? How do I change this to take in more Protein without being in pain? Any advice on what I can do? When should I go to the doctor? Thanks so much![/quote']

I'm in the same boat sleeved 11/19/12 my sleeve is a day by day. Now I know I'm not going crazy just a lil insane:-) :-) :-)

Had surgery 11/19/2012. About 2weeks ago i was able to eat meats, vegs,some soft fruit. But this week my sleeve is restricted to everything.My question is did this happen to you almost 3month out..Thanks for any reply:::

I have tried EAS' date=' Muscle Milk, one from Wal-Mart (dont know the name), Gatorade, Chike, and the samples I ordered are from Vitalady.com. I liked the one I had this morning, but it was so thick I could only drink 2oz.

I'm going to try the Protein bars. What brand are they and where did you get them?[/quote']

GNC has Quest bar Protein Bars no sugar 20 gram Protein high Fiber low carbs and are delicious Good Luck:-) :-) :-)

dkelly was your surgery in 2012? are there any support groups in vegas or a good NUT?

Hello .... any sleevers in Las Vegas? is there any support groups in Vegas?

I LIVE IN ANTHEM DR ATKINSONS DID MY SURGERY 11/19:-) :-)

My sister in law is the same way. As soon as she knew I was having this done she immediately started dieting and exercising a whole bunch. She is also overweight but I have always been bigger. Now that I am alot smaller she makes comments about she's losing weight naturally and how I'm looking so "skinny". Come on!! I still weigh over 200lbs! So you know what I do? I say thanks! I'm feeling pretty skinny lately and move on to the next subject. Brush your shoulder off and keep moving forward! We are healthier of mind body and soul. And our opinion of ourself is the only one that should matter

What funny is that today I was asked did I eat something in the kitchen really with 3 oz LOL:-) :-) :-)
