When is it going to end? I had my surgery 4 mos ago and the 3mos hit and it just is all over, I shower I feel like I can make a wig with what has been falling out. I don't know what I should do? HELP!!!
-
My surgery was November 28 down 31lbs. I feel good so far except for days where I feel really weak and always feel like I am starving. Other than that, I am happy with my progress.

I too have had this and I am 5 weeks out. Drinking Fluid helps but it seems like it comes back within the hour. I always feel like I am hungry, instead of eating food I will tr an ice pop or a sugar free fudge pop.

Sannah,
I know exactly how you feel, i was sleeved Nov 28 and I have a 14mo old and felt so helpless! All he wanted was for me to do everything with him, I felt so guilty. But now my Dr. cleared me and I can pick him up, cuddle and play with him. It's all worth it. So far i have lost 25lbs since my surgery. Good luck!!!

At my 1 month Check up, my Doc said I was cleared to have a glass of wine when I wanted. So I guess it depends on your surgeon.

Thank you Connie, I just feel sometimes I just might not get to where I want to be.

GIGi3 I was cracking up on your we fatties line....I too miss my glass of wine every now and then. I am only 2 weeks out, my surgeon allows 1 glass every so often. I would advise you double check with your surgeon. I wouldn't abuse the every so often, don't forget the stomach lining is not as thick as before. Also if your still taking the antacids be careful!!

Is it? I have had Soups and vegetables have been so soft they are mush when I eat it. I have had mashed potatoes, Beans and eggs. I don't know what else to eat? I am getting bored with the food. Thursday I start soft foods, so maybe it will get better. I will start in the morning at one wait then by the time bedtime comes it goes up by 1lb. I do 3 Protein Shakes a day too and lots of fluids. Is this normal?

I had my sleeve done 11/28 and have always been a picky eater, so far I have lost since the surgery date 18lbs. I am on pureed foods and feel like I am at a loss as to what to eat on a daily basis. I don't eat oatmeal, I just started to eat fish, PLEASE HELP!!!!
ALL and ANY ADVICE IS MUCH NEEDED!!!! I do not want to fail!! Thank you in advance :-)

Sarah,
I was told no lifting more than 5lbs for 6wks because the stomach can split open.

I have to agree, I do not want to end up in the ER or away from home at all.

I had my surgery on 11/28 and came home 12/1. I am unable to pick up my lil one who is only 13months and its breaking my heart. Is anyone else going thru the same thing? I was originally banded in 2009 and went from band to sleeve and feeling great, except for my baby.

Congratulations, welcome to the official sleevers..lol Had mine done on the 11/28 and so far so good!!

That sounds delish and easy!!

Does anyone have a recipe for pizza, that's not full of fat? I am so craving a slice with onion and mushroom?
-
My Dr. doesnt allow this as there is too much sodium in it. Chk the labels.

Thank you so much!! I booked my appointments back to back but still had to do 6 mos of nutrition because of insurance, but that was with the lap band, now since I already saw the Dr, I only had to do the Endoscopy with Dr. Oh. My surgery is at Mountainside Hospital. Good Luck to you!! I felt hesitant at first too, but he is great!!
Too much Hair Loss?

My nutritionist said I need more Protein, But how much can I possibly eat? I had the lab band in 2009 and didnt have this much Hair loss. Since the sleeve almost 4 mos ago its been non stop as of last month.
