  2. Hello my fellow sleevers! I got sleeved June 17. I a 9 weeks out and as of today I have lost 50 pounds!!! I am at 180 and I feel on top of the world! The sleeve has changed my life, the way I eat and the way I look at food. I still have much more to learn but for now I have new found hope!
  3. Hi! Mine is ruthiecoyne
  4. Tired. Sleepy emotional and more tired. Everyone is different though. This is just my experience. Many people get their energy back sooner
  5. Actually now that I remember I had a pain on the left side of my belly and the doc told me normally people complain of pain on the right side. My pain turned out to just be horrible gas
  6. I'm not sure about the pain...after surgery I had tons of pain and discomfort all over. Mainly gas pain.
  7. I'm 8 weeks out and I started feeling better around 6 weeks but I am barely starting to get my energy back this week! It takes time
  8. Hi everyone!!! My user name is ruthiecoyne
  9. Thanks ladies. I actually have my tubes tied and take the seaonique pill so I can skip my periods. I was just worried taking 2 pills would make me sick and I wasn't sure what to do. I know my subject isn't Really sleeve related topic. Thanks for the advice!
  10. I swear ever since I had my surgery 6 weeks ago I her been so absent minded amongst other things! I accidentally took my BC twice this morning! I took next sundays BC! I bought a pill box so I can easily just take my pills without having to sort it all every morning and without thinking about it after I took my pills I looked at my BC package and saw it said Sunday and I was like oh I didn't take it and then after I took it realized omg yes I did! This is next Sundays! Anyone have any ideas what I should do???? I have been on the pill for a very long time and this is the first time doing this! Uuuuggg! Thanks in advance!!!
  11. You look wonderful!!!!
  12. Oh my gosh. Thank you everyone for making me feel like I'm not going insane!
  13. I am almost 6 weeks post op and I still can only 3 or 4 bites at a time but it is so much more then I was able to a week and a half ago. I think it's gonna have to take time. My problem is taking big bites and eating fast. I need to slow down!
  14. I'm starting to think its the combination of everything everyone mentioned. I felt so horrible arguing in front of my daughter like that! I was like this isn't me!! What is wrong with me!
  15. Hi everyone! Just have a question. I will be 6 weeks out on Monday. Physically I have been feeling great. Some days I still feel very tired and weak but everything seems good. I lost 4o pounds so far. Since the surgery I have been feeling so moody. Mainly angry, defensive kind of mood. Today I completely lost it. A woman cut me in line and I totally flipped out on her after I politely told her she can't do that and she didn't care. We went into a full argument! Normally I would ignore and move on but since surgery I just want to choke people for stupid things. Has anyone else felt this way???
  16. 3 months and already look this freaking awesome! Congrats! And thank you for the motivation! It helps so much on days when the scale seems to move slow!!!
  17. June 17- lost 39 pounds I pretty much try to eat as much a I can to get my Protein in but usually only can get about 600cal with 35-45 protein. Pushing hard to get in more. Trying super hard to get the energy to start working out!!
  18. I'm 5 weeks post op and I still have days that I feel so tired. Still healing even at 5 weeks! We just had part of my stomachs removed. It will take time
  19. Maybe just buy 2 articles of clothes to make you feel good? I know it's not much but it can help for when you go out or something Congrats!!!!!! This is def a good problem!!! Before it was we couldn't fit in anything! This def feels better
  20. Your so pretty. I wish I could wear makeup like you! You look great! Congrats!!
