Omg, you have to feel amazing! I am 2.5 months postop and I have lost 53 pounds since my surgery day. I started out at 310. I am starting to get worried about saggy skin since I am loosing so fast. Do you have much saggy skin? Should I start exercising to reduce it? What exercises and other treatments do you use?

I am 5'3, started at 310 on surgery date and now I am 262. Thats 48 in exactly 2 months.

I started at 310. No I didnt have a medical diet because I went to Mexico and paid cash. I did have a 2 week pre op diet which I totally blew. I did not lose 1 pound. I did have the dreaded 3rd week stall. I knew about it though so it wasnt that bad. I lost 32 pounds in 2 weeks then stalled for 3 or 4 then lost the remainder since then.

I am 8 weeks post op and I live in Houston also. What area do you live in and who was your Doctor in Mexico?

I am doing great! I am 8 weeks out and have lost 48 pounds. I get full very quick so I dont eat much at all. My clothes are getting really loose. I am so happy I did this. The only thing I am unhappy about is that I am already noticing saggy skin. I am about to join a gym to work on that as soon as we move November 1st.

I have lost 40 pounds in one month and 10 days and I don't see it either. Everyone else does though. I am like you with Protein shakes. I am making smoothies with the powder to try to lile it better. I also either have diarrhea (sorry, tmi) or horrible heartburn after I do the Protein drinks. I had energy issues the first week or so but now I feel great. I am super glad I chose this surgery and honestly ig I don't lose another pound I will still be happy.

They are really good and I do not like any Protein powders I have tried. I get the strawberry with strawberries as the only fruit. You can get double strawberries but it does add more carbs. The chocolate is good too but I don't get any fruit in that. Ask for fresh fruit or they may give you some that has soaked in sugar. Also the one I go to has some flavors that aren't advertised like lean 1 Cookies and cream which is good too.

I got sleeved in Mexico 5 weeks ago. I am doing great. I have always been a fast healer and this surgery was no exception. The only issue I had was getting wore out extremely easy after moving around. I hsve lost 36 pounds. The first 32 pounds came off in the first two weeks. I just dropped the other four after a 3 week stall. I am very happy so far.

Hi everyone! I live in Houston (Cypress area). I am 5 weeks out and have lost 40 pounds since surgery. Anyone else from around Cypress or katy?

I am 5 weeks out and mine still does it. It's so odd. I will never get used to it. I hope other people don't notice it.

I assume you meant norcos and no they aren't a blood thinner.

Oh by the way, that is a very nice thing you are doing for her. A cake like that can run around $1000. Maybe you will get orders at the wedding and this will be the start of a new business!!

I love baking as well, just for us and nothing fancy like that. I have noticed after I bake somethingI have NO desire to eat it. Its the strangest thing. If I do want to eat some its 2 days later and its all gone anyways. My mother in law said when she was pregnant with ny husband she craved baked goods. She would go through all the trouble of baking and then her craving would be gone and everyone else would eat it. I guess it's a normal thing.

The sliders would be great but where do you get the slider buns at?

Do you use coffee grounds or do you make the coffee up first?
