You have done an amazing job loosing you look great wear what you want and be happy

Chili was my best friend for a long while, also baked chicken, rotisserie chicken,

I have twins that were 2 at the time of surgery I could not lift them but I did hold them, I held their arm so they could climb up beside me, if it wasn't for the help of my husband and parents it would have been impossible. Good luck to you, I had my surgery July 2013

I was one of the unfortunate ones, pain was excruciating, took 3 weeks for me to start feeling better. Everyone is different though.

Thank you, I don't take any blood pressure medicines but do take a cholesterol medicine. Even though I have had the weight loss my cholesterol is still high. And hormones from having the hysterectomy. Other than that just the normal vitamins.

Hi I had gastric sleeve july 2013. Since then I've lost 193 pounds. I have not had any problems with sleep apnea. Asthma, breathing issues, since surgery. I have had to have a total hysterectomy a few months ago. I'm have some issues with blood pressure that I haven't discussed with my doctor yet, going this week. Some days I feel really bad, even light headed and dizzy some and I'll check my blood pressure and it's always low. Like 90/52, and just the other day it was 78/46, my question is does any one else experience this with the weight loss.

Oh ok thank you

What is citracel and what part of the store do you find it please sounds yummy

Thank you and good luck to you in your weight loss journey

Thank you. I am one week from my hysterectomy.i saw my doctor yesterday and he told me take it easy I had major surgery . That's hard to take it easy. I am just a little paranoid about gaining a pound. I worked so hard and went thru so much to get that weight off and don't want any type of relapse. I know it's going to be ok in the end just not feeling it right now.

If you can get past the first three days of pre op then the rest will be so much easier.

Hello everyone. My name is Rhonda. I had gastric sleeve surgery last July (2013).over the last 13 months I lost 190 pounds which I am extremely happy with. What's going on now I really need some words of encouragement.i am 43 and last Tuesday underwent a total hysterectomy. I have twin 2 year olds so I was ok wasn't going to try for another. But I am home can not so much right now to tend to the , the house. Etc. that makes me feel bad.i have to stay in bed a good bit, when I get up moving around a little while which I do, I start hurting. So I have to get down. What I am worried about is not being mobile. I am still watching what I eat. But I'm terrified of gaining weight. I am only 5 ft tall so I still for me want to loose another 23 pounds I am 148 now, looking to get to 125. I have been watching every episode of extreme wright loss. I am totally motivated but can not actually to right now.sorry the long post just feeling so emotional. By the way my parents are a tremendous help with the babies and my husband at night so they are well taken care of. It's just the my not being able to do.. That bothers me..

Glad you got some relief. I've been there myself. Did not want to have to call about that so I tried tuffing it out but that was a big mistake. It will happen again most likely until your able to add enough fiber in your diet. I still go a whole week before going to the bathroom. I'm 13 months out now. I would definetley keep some suppositories on hand. And the miralax too to soften. Good luck with your journey.

Yea I know. It was so disgusting though. And I've been drinking them almost daily for a while. I'm 13 months out and only drink then now for Maintenence.

Hello I left a protein shake out all day t was a premier protein shake that I had blended with ice but had to leave it. When I got back home that night I had poured it out in the sink. It did not drain down the sink so I washed with water and still it did not wash down the drain so I had to pick up the big glob and throw away in the trash. Has anyone else had this happen to them, and my next question is what are we really putting in our body with these protein shakes?
