  1. I had my surgery on April 30th. I started at 250. As of today I am 26 pounds down. I feel like I am losing insanely slow. I'm waiting well (protein, protein, protein). I am also going to zumba three times a week. I feel thinner, but get incredibly aggravated when I get dressed.
  2. I am 5 weeks out. I've lost 23 pounds and take biotin everyday. Has anyone else experienced a change in hair texture? The top of my head seems greasy and stringy. Any suggestions?
  3. I was sleeved April 30th and lost 20 pounds. I stalled for the past week. My goal is 20 pounds a month
  4. I am about 2 weeks out and down 17 pounds. Date of Surgery Weight (4.30.13): 250 Current Weight: 231 My goal is to get to onederland by June 21st. My goal is 199. That means I would have to lose 34 pounds I know this is pushing it, but fingers crossed!!

    I had my surgery on April 30th. In one week I lost 15 pounds. For the past three days I have been at a standstill. Any suggestions? I know the surgery worked, but I still get nervous something won't work lol ridiculous I know.

    Thanks for the encouragement! Are you still on mainly liquids? I have been eating a small amount of egg whites, soup, water and protein shakes.
  7. I am 5 days post op. I have tried 4 different protein shakes and every single one has me in the bathroom popping. I am lactose intolerant and purposely picked shakes that are lactose and diary free, but I cannot find one that agrees with me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
  8. I'm so glad it's not just be. I had IBS before the surgery and I am praying this surgery helps with that.

    newbie!

    My legs were never swollen before. They only hurt when I touch my calve muscles. Otherwise they don't really hurt. My right side is killing me too! I am going back to work Wednesday. I am probably pushing it, but I need to get back to some normalcy. I am struggling to find the line between not eating enough and eating too much. I feel really confused. I have also been having bowel movements all day and feel weak ugh.
  10. Hey everyone! I had my sleeve on Tuesday. Still insanely sore. Any words of encouragement? Nicole
