  1. I just realized this today. I looked back last month and noticed a calorie increase for that week and then a calorie decrease. I figuared out the pattern now and it matches the time of month. I don't crave un healthy foods, I just get hungry more often. I'm happy to know I'm not the only one.
  2. I also had dr. Schram do my surgery on April 15. I'm just over 3 months out. He is an amazing dr!! His whole staff is great!! My husband works for spectrum and has done some work with dr. Schram. Which is how I got hooked up with him when I decided to pursue surgery. I'm so happy I did it, so happy I choose him and so happy w my weight loss. The hospital was great too. I live only 35 min away. I recommend him to everyone!! He is current And stays on top of current issues in weightloss surgery. I just love him!!
  3. Sleeved 4-15 I just saw my previous post from a while ago. Iam now down 55 pounds! I still cannot stand protien shakes. I was actually getting physically sick.. I would vomit them(no matter what brand I tried) and then I would get violent shakes and get dizzy. I'm fine unless I try to drink one. This sucks bc I have been having a hard time the last couple weeks getting all my protein in from foods. I need 60grams a day. Other wise I have been doing good and feeling good. I need to get into a regular exercise routine.

  5. Has anyone had issues w the taste of toothpaste after surgery. I'm 8 weeks out and I can only handle one type of toothpaste or I get sick. I tried a different kind tonight and my stomach is churning.
  6. So, I was sleeved April 15 of this yr. this week I have noticed my hair is just Terribly dry, and won't do anything. I'm not loosing any hair, but it's so dry and hard that when I straighten it, it sticks together like burnt Barbie doll hair. What is going on? I have used new conditioner,shampoo, hair creams etc.. Anyone eles have this happen? I have also been having terrible mod swings this week. It's not that time of month, is it hormones being released?? I feel like I'm going crazy this week.
  7. Whoops wrong email to use. It's slynae19@hotmail.com
  8. I had my sleeve on April 15,2013 so I'm what, 8 weeks out now? I doing fine, getting adjusted to weird little food quirks and smells. I'm going crazy for new food ideas and stuff the whole family could eat I would love to be added to this group. Sara.troast@hotmail.com
  9. Sleeved on 4-15 I'm down 35.7 pounds as of yesterday.
  10. You will have good days and bad days like that. I don't know why. I was sleeved April 15th. Six weeks out and I go three-4 days and then have 1-2 really bad days for no reason at all. It must be our bodies still healing.
  11. I was getting dizzy too, I found that Gatorade daily helped. I drank the regular Gatorade, not the low cal one. I felt better.
  12. I too got really sick and had terrible heartburn. Other than that it was really tasty. I might try it a few months from now and see if I can handle it again. My husband and kids loved it as a dip with pita chips or crackers.
  13. I have had it with any brand,type of protien shake. When I drink them, even slowly, I get super sweaty, shakes, chills , vomit and feel sick for several hours after drinking them. I get a headache and am severaly nauseous for most of the day. It does not matter what time of day I drink them either. Yesterday I was on te couch for several hours shaking with the chills. I keep trying them bc I know I need my 60 grams of protien a day. I'm calling dr. First thing Monday. Anyone eve heard of this ? I'm frustrated.
  14. I was sleeved on April 15 I'm down 31 pounds. I'm feeling better every day. I'm in my second week of working out five days a week for a half hour. Only issue I have is I feel like I eat quickly. I have lots of restriction and know when I'm full, but if only takes me a couple mins, not the half hour some people take. I'm very happy I did this, I'm already off my metformine too.
  15. Just wondering if something is wrong w me. I'm going into week four post op. I just started a egg salad and canned chicken w mayo and tried some cheese for a snack. I have no problem eating these items. I mash them good but don't purée them. I chew well and it all goes down and stays down. Is this normal? I'm satisfied and often don't finish the ounce of what ever I'm eating. I feel like since everyone has said it should take 30 mins to eat Nd purée everything, that I'm doing something g wrong and harming myself. Any ideas? I'm also calling dr tommorow bc I throw up on the protien shakes. No matter what brand or kind I get sick. I just feel like I'm doing something wrong.
  16. I was a me to pick up 4 different flavors it was buy three get one free. I tried the pineapple one. It stayed down. But the taste really got to me. I will give them a try and choke it down.
  17. Im going to try isopure. I have been trying more shakes today. I end up throwing up. I'm fine when I eat my "mushy " foods I just know I can't eat enough in a day to get 60 grams of protien
  18. I have tried so many different protien shakes the last three weeks. Monday I will be 4 weeks post op. I have been getting very sick when I drink a shake. After a few sips I get nauseated, and usually end of vomiting. I'm not sure how to get my 60 grams in daily wo a couple shakes. But I'm sick of feeling sick. I do fine w other liquids and when I eat my yogurt or other soft foods. Any suggestions? I'm calling my dr. On Monday.
