I am 7 months out and yes you do eventually feel normal.
I wasn't really obsessed with all the things I "had" to do. I just listened to my body and started to live my new life.
Its pretty easy. The surgery is pretty easy, the lifestyle is pretty easy and you just learn to behave thin. I do not drink Water because my body will not tolerate it, so I drink other fluids, I just kinda look back over my day and say ok I have had tea, coffee, 3 Gatorade's and OJ, and I know I need to add one more drink. I never get obsessed. When I eat I mentally know what has Protein and what does not and try to eat things that have Protein over things that have none. As long as I am constantly eating I am good and continue to lose weight. I know almonds and cheese and yogurts are my go to foods, so don;t obsess about getting 60 g of protein. If you like to obsess then go for it but I know if I am eating and drinking right I am happy.

I was taking my pills like normal after my leak tests were done 24 hours after surgery,
Ask your doc but should be no issue.

I made the call on a Monday and booked my flight and was on the table 2 weeks later on a Friday.

I kinda stopped losing a bit and I am 7 months out. I went back to liquids. I did clears for a week and full liquids and still in that phase. I woke up 5 lbs lighter.
Stop eating and start over again.
I do not understand the pouch test because I do not have a pouch I have a smaller stomach.
So start over and tell me how it goes.

Thats great Tink!.
I always thiough that protien shakes are bad for you. They are ok to get you through but by week 8 you should be getting all your protien organically. I agree 100% with that. I think I have said that in the Chat room.
The no dairy thing is new. I love cheese and my favorite place to get cheese is from trader joes. They always have new ones.
I am glad you are feeling hopeful. That is a big part of success is your attitude!

No need to be worried. Super Normal to have gallbladder issues with hormones changing and dramatic weight loss.
You will probably have another similar lap surgery to have it removed.
DO NOT EAT FAT!!!!

Bring Dollars and small bills and HIDE IT WELL and YES things are EXPENSIVE> I had to have one of my nurses get me a box of tampons and I gave her a $5 and I got a box of 10 tampons.

I take alot of meds and I was able to resume celexa and other pain meds with in 2 days of surgery.
Once your leak tests are cleared you should be good to go.

So I have these pants I thought still fit and since I have a sun burn I knew they would be a little loose and comfy,
So I put them on they were so big that my 40 Lb 4 year old climbed in with me and we took a photo. I got him in further when I held him closer.
But a friend on here told me you guys would like this. A fun visual!

Nope no cooties,
I had my surgery on Friday I was back to work Tuesday. It's a no big deal surgery,

You look great!
I am sorta discouraged now. I started at 264 and I want to to be 130.
I am 186 now and a size 12 and med-large tops and that's not good enough for me. I carb rotate and shock my body and fast and do all the things your supposed to keep the weight coming off but not to be 130 might be so discouraging!
I am so happy you look great and are happy where you are!
-
I saw these. I figured I could make it at home with less chemicals and carbs.
I am glad you found something you find fun!

Omg once I had it cause I was just like I want it so I am going to have it, kind of mood.
I was so sick and uncomfortable. I wanted to throw up so bad.
But I have a super sensitivity to sugar so that could have been it. I was sweaty and wanted to lay down or pass out. I don;t do it anymore unless its a bite from a kids cup no more for me!

That bladder leaking is actually stress incontinence and yes it gets better almost immediatly. I remember being super embarrassed because of always thinking I smelled like a diaper and now no issues at all.
And yes I can tell you your vag is gonna get cute! My hubby never could do oral and now its tight and he loves it. So don't worry you lose weight EVERYWHERE.
-
How would they know?
So knock it off!
Want to be think or want to smoke?
and if it necessary pick it up after your surgery.

Try eating smaller bites and chewing more. Avoiding swallowing air.

Can't possibly be a stall. A stall is no movement of pounds or inches in over 4 weeks. Your fine. Relax and live your life.
