I am 3 months out. I am down to 169 from 212 and I am STUCK. PLEASE HELP!!! Suggestions?

Right! I have always been 5'5". Not now!! Weird.

Bwhahaha... no. I have always had skinny feet. Lol. That was the ONLY thing skinny on me.

Has anyone experienced hight reduction? I am 6 weeks out of surgery and lost a total of 31 lbs. Ive also lost 2 1/2 in. off my hight.

Cristin, mine itched as well. I eventually took my steristrips off. I could not take it anymore. I was almost two weeks out.

I really like that link. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Cristin. I appreciate it. How are you?

I have NOT lost any weight this week!! I'm 3 weeks out, what's up with that?

Good luck to you!! It's a huge accomplishment. I know I'm one of the smallest that has had it so I'll loose weight slower than others and I'm ok with that. 130 is my goal.

Today is my 2 week checkup!! At my consultation I weighed in at 206, 3 wks later I started my preop diet, weighing 212. 2/27/13 (sleeve date) I weighed 206. Lets see the improvement. 2pm today... YAY!!

Hahaha... Did you try diluting them with something?

Has anyone used them? If so, how do they taste?

I am dreading the hair loss! I'm a hair stylist and always feel so bad for people who have fine/thinning hair. I plan on just putting a few tape-in extensions for volume. And yes' date=' if it gets really bad on the too the hair fibers work well to camo Hair loss. There is one good one called x-fusion. Good luck to you all.[/quote']

Im a hair stylist as well. I geel the same way. We can always you big sexy hair products. Maybe some back combing in a bottle

Yessssssss last night I was laying watching a movie very calm i must add and the next thing I new my heart was pounding out my chest hard and fast Like I just ran a 5k race or something. I'm not sure what that's about but I'm calling my doctor first thing Monday morning

What did the doctor say??

Scott your stomach cramping may be from gas.

So i just had a mini melt down crying and wondering why i did this to my body and if it was the right thing to do. I guess just feeling really emotional today and gettin gcaught up in the discomfort and all the suckieness that is the first few weeks post op. Anyone else felt this way?

I have had a melt down myself today. I take Prozac 10 days before my cycle. When my cycle begins all the emotions disappear. I am fading from mu cycle now but today has been a very emotional day.

I, myself was very pleased with Dr. Marsden.

At my consultation I weighed 206. The day I started my preop diet I was 212. Morning of surgery back to 206. One week out I'm at 196. This Wednesday will be 2 weeks out. Looking forward to it.

Thank you for replying. I go Thursday for my two week checkup. My paperwork says he will also do a four week checkup. I'll make sure I get that in. How are you doing?

My thing is that they really didn't tell me about a lot of things that I read on here, such as... B12, eating and drinking at the same time etc. unless he is waiting for my p.o. I have a list of questions to ask him.

Let us know what they say. Hope it gets better.

I was sleeved on the 27th. Doing good so far. Not hungry at all really but I do miss the drive threws. Hehe... Kinda.

I'm 1 week and 3 days post op and the smell of food still makes me sick. I am having trouble getting in my liquids and the Protein shakes make me nauseated really bad.

Today I've had 24 oz water' date=' 8 oz skim milk, 8 teaspoons total of cream of wheat (made with skim milk & Splenda) I will try more chicken broth tonight, but so far everything makes me sick.[/quote']

Your eating Cream of Wheat one week out? Hows that going for you? Did your doctor give you something for nausea?

Did anyone on here use Dr. Marsden, Baylor in Trophy Club?

Has anyone experienced any Hair loss since their sleeve? I have not, just curious. I plan on getting as much Protein as possible.

I was looking into the Isopure clear drinks. They have 80 grams of sodium. What other Protein Drinks do you all suggest. Not really wanting a powder, but if I have too.... I guess I will.

OH NO!!! Now I'm freaked out!! When I did eat corn, I made sure I chewed very well. I did second guess myself after the fact of course. Good points on getting things stuck. I had never thought of that. That is why I love this Sleeve Talk. You learn so much from others. I'm not eating anymore solids until I go to my 2 week post op appointment. Time for me to start praying everything is fine in my tummy and nothing is stuck :/
