Nooooooo cause all i want is food now : (

I sometimes feel like I want food 2 when did u have your surgery

So today (7 days out) was the day that I hit that hormonal wall of crying like a lunatic. I am not used to laying around to heal. I am a ‘rub some dirt on it and keep moving' person. But today the stars aligned and I lost it. I am just so darned exhausted. I can do dishes for 5 minutes before my back is killing me. I took a nap after driving my kids to preschool. Seriously. I had a csection with twins and *never* felt this exhausted. My back has been bothering me lately' date=' like a burning ache. Perhaps if I move a little more tomorrow I will feel better. One step at a time....[/quote']

I felt the same way couldn't stop crying felt like I made the wrong & worst decision of my life & I had the feeling a couple times I hope I don't have it again I had my surgery april 3rd. Still exhausted have 2 take naps almost every day & my back was killing me 2 hope things get better 4 u

I was almost 186. Started with a low BMI and never dreamed I'd lose that much that fast!!

Wow I was 215 & mine is coming off slower

Sleeved the 16th and have lost 17 lbs in 13 days!!! I'm so excited with my decision to have the surgery...definitely not easy but so worth it to get my life back!!!!

Its really not I had mine on the 3rd very hard work & u HAVE 2 keep up with everything

I was sleeved April 3' date=' and when I went back to work I felt the same thing. First of all, going back to work kicked my ass!!! Second, my muscles felt bruised and sore. I think a lot of it comes from not consuming enough food for energy and then the rapid fat loss leaves our once "really" padded muscles less padded.

As of today, I'm down 30lbs total!! Woohoo!!!![/quote']

How much did u weigh when u went in 4 Surgery

I was skeptical for about the first month post-op because if how I felt (headaches' date='so thirsty,tired, sore) but now that I'm starting my third month I am very pleased. I would do it again because the initial symptoms I mentioned are about gone and I've lost 47lbs in 9weeks! Yaaaay![/quote']

Congrats

I am four weeks out' date=' and right now I regret my decision. I had the surgery for a better quality and healthy life but I feel that I will never feel "right" again. I feel like everything gets stuck in my chest (like a pill that went down the wrong way). I hope it gets better and hope I will be happy with my decision in a month from now.[/quote']

That's how I feel from time 2 time but haven't had pills get stuck & hope I don't good luck 2 you hope we can get through this

At 1st in the classes b4 surgery my nut. Was all nice saying if u have any questions don't hesitate 2 contact me & the best way 2 reach me is through email now she wants me 2 come in the office every time I have a question so I will have 2 pay her $45 I'm about 2 look 4 me another 1 because I don't understand that I have insurance but she don't accept insurance I already then gave her well over $400 & I'm only 4 weeks out of surgery

At least its just a co pay my nutrionist don't accept insurance & charge $45 a visit

My doctor told me my Nutritanist will educate me on that but it beginning 2 be a pain I email her and she wants me 2 come in the office so I will have 2 pay her $45 a visit when I only asked her can I take the biartric Multi Vitamins in capsule form that's in the brochure she gave us with samples in it cause the liquid vitamins is making me sick on the stomach I just can't stomach them anymore

...I have had to go in first week checkup' date=' 3 week check up (due to being dehyrdrated the first week), 1 month, and now this coming week 2 month check up because I am still dehydrated...I do think it is a racket for many dr/nut. I hope I won't have to go back til 6 months, but I bet they will tell me to come back for a 3 month check up...

My nut is very upset with me; I spent 100s on various shakes/powders - I just can't stomach them at all, so I am getting my Protein in by food & I'm not getting 70 grams every day. I told my nut I just couldn't keep up spending the on trying to find a shake - if I liked shakes, I would have never needed the surgery in the first place. She didn't like my answer, but I figured I better be honest with her. I am not getting in 64 oz Fluid, either, I really try, but it still becomes very uncomfortable. I broke her 'rules' - I use a straw to try to drink more so I am not dehydrated, but hasn't worked yet...so my nut is upset with my honesty. I think if I lied about the Protein & Water - she'd be happy.[/quote']

Do u have 2 pay every time u see your Nutritanist

My NUT is nice' date=' so far! The only problem I have with her is she is about a size 0! It's hard to take someone seriously on food when she looks like she is anorexic!![/quote']

My nut is a size zero 2 do u have 2 pay every time u see her

My NUT said 2 email her if I had any questions now she want 2 make me come in the office 4 everything & charge me $45 a visit I'm starting to feel some kind of way & this is really making me feel like I made a big mistake with my decision

I am almost 4weeks post op & feel like I can't take the liquid form Vitamins anymore they are getting harder & harder 2 go down

I can say' date=' at 27 months, my hair is finally growing back in, and is almost as thick as it was before. It was really falling out hard until just a few months ago. I have a bunch of short hairs sticking out all over, but at the roots it looks pretty good. I dont know why... but glad I got here![/quote']

Did u use Biotin

Me too with Protein today I got 40grams Fluid still working on though

I find it easier 2 get protein in if I mix it in Soup that the only way I can get it in & the best 4 me is 98% fat free cream of chicken with unflavored Isopure protein good luck

I don't want ANY metal left inside. Titanium? Seriously? Ew.

I don't either nor did I know that I feel u

Staples? What staples? I just have steristrips.

That's good congrats

The dr gave me pantoprazole for acid. However its only 40 mg. I have been having issues. So I took one this morn and a 2nd one at 4. Dies anyone have this issue too? And does anyone take tums through out the day?

My doc &NUT told me don't take tums

I don't know what's going on with my body...still at a stall of over 3 weeks!!! Went back to shakes and 2 bars/day to mix things up' date=' but keep losing and gaining the same lb over and over!! Had tried upping my calories, but that didn't work for me, plus it didn't make me feel good about myself. I am losing inches tho..any advice is greatly appreciated! Being out 7 weeks, it seems like I would be the veteran giving out advice ..***sigh***[/quote']

I hope u start loosing again I would hate 4 it 2 happen 2 me but I heard that almost every1 go thro a stall

Please don't introduce any bad carbs this early. Let me tell you my story. I was doing great until my nutritionalist started me in trouncing crackers into my diet about 3 months out. Then I would taste some chips here and there and then some popcorn and then some fries until now at 5 months I crave sweets again and want bad carbs all day long. Have not gained anything yet but am not losing as I should. So if you are wise stay away from all bad carbs until you are at goal and you can introduce if you are able. I know that I am going to have to give up all bad carbs forever because I can not control my eating. I am a CARBOHOLIC. And need to attend meetings for this. There are a lot of us so we shouldn't have a problem finding members.

Thanks I knew I shouldn't have tried it & it went down so well naughty me

I had my surgery April 3rd 2013 & I ate 4 cheez its on 3 different occasions not n one day but ova a coarse of a couple days I feel bad but at least its not like it was b4 when I would eat the whole bag then feel bad & I'm not gonna make it a habit
