weight loss- help me
I had a class yesterday that went over all the things to look for that are not normal, and the things that are normal. I am with Gomekast you need to go to the ER. Or call the Physician on call at your surgeons office,. I would bet that you are dehydrated! You shouldn't be so weak that you cant stand and your not able to hold things down you need to be seen. I was told as well, that if you are eating the things you are suppose to and you are throwing up.....seek medical attention. Throwing up foods that you can have is not a good thing. I have seen on here that some people say oh its normal....well my surgeon said NO its not normal to throw up foods you should be able to tolerate. I am not sleeved yet but I to cant have protein until weeks 3/4- APPROVED!
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get sleeved on November 19th. I wish it would hurry up and get here already, I'm so tired of waiting- November buddies where are you?
Awesome advice......... Thank you- November buddies where are you?
Now we share the same date- Excess skin in African Americans?!
i have the same fear.....So i have started early taking care of my skin. I use the palmers stretch mark massage oil and the lotion. I also exfoliate really good! I use firming lotions and doing skin firming treatments plus ive already started toning everything. I have surgery Novemeber 19th I have about 90lbs to get to my ideal weight i have a thick mid section so I fear that will be my most problem area. Start taking care of your skin now.......Firm , firm, firm now- my life is miserable since the sleeve
