Even though its already been said, I must say it once more...Lookin mighty good sir! Great job! Any advice on avoiding loose skin? Definitely one of my biggest concerns. Keep up the great work!

This is hands down my favorite thread!! Hilarious!

Congrats! You look awesome!

you will be fine it is your hormones are all wecky

Thank you for the reassurance. I'm a little nervous.

Most guys see a pretty good rise in their desire as the hormones are diluted less by decreased body mass. Women seem to feel more desire but as we all know EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT.

Wait a few weeks then ask the doc. There is a lot of stuff going on and your rapid decrease in calories is bound to screw up your chemical balance for a while.

Thanks! I have my 4 week follow-up appt this week. I'll mention it and see what he says. I just don't want this to be permanent.

Hey guys!

I definitely sneak a bite here n there of foods I shouldn't have, but I'm so limited to the things that will stay down I still only average 600-800 calories. I'm trying not to beat myself up over the stall but eating so little and not seeing the scale move is alittle discouraging.

I was sleeved 11/15/12 in Pittsburgh, PA at Magee Hospital. I'm 21.8 lbs down and my numbers haven't moved in about a week. I had some nausea but I'm starting to feel much better.

I'm alittle worried about my sex drive. I'll be 4 weeks out on Thursday and my desire for sex is GONE! Is this normal? Anybody else experience this? Does the desire come back?

After smoking for years and several attempts at quitting, after surgery I can't even stand the smell of cigarettes. I still have cravings but I can't even tolerate the smell without feeling sick, let alone actually smoke.
