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?

What did the doctor say??

Scott your stomach cramping may be from gas.

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.

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 :/
