Ha! Yes- 07/01/13

Hello all!! I was sleeved on 7/1/14 and was 304. As of today, I am down 72 lbs. I am very discouraged because I haven't lost any weight in many many weeks. I had my gallbladder out this week and hope this will help. Any suggestions??

Proton pump inhibitor. I take protonix..... To keep the acid in the stomach down.

I take the B 12 shot son idiot have yet another thing I have to swallow!! I love it too!

Thank you for this post. It is encouraging to me. I was sleeved on July 1 and am down 74 lbs. I feel stuck...

Woo hoo!!!

I am almost eight months and have had zero complications. My only issue has been my gallbladder. My dr said that is common with massive weight loss. Taking a handful of vitamins is pretty basic with any bariatric as is some hair loss while your body adjusts. My hair loss has been minimal. I have no regrets and would do it again tomorrow.

My nutritionist told me to increase my calories when I work out.

I was sleeved on 07/01 and am down 72 lbs. I have gone from a size 26 to an 18!!! I want to loose 90 more

I was instructed not to.

I too lost band size and went up in cup size. I went from a 46 C to a 42 D. I can tell you that my boobs do look like the air has been let out!

They also have whole wheat pasta! It is great!

I was on liquids for two weeks post op and soft foods for four weeks after that. Your tummy isn't ready for foods so heavy. I will also call your surgeons office

Did you actually use a straw??

I want to sit in my husbands lap and not feel like I am squishing him.

I burp when I am full. I don't mean a little under your breath burp either. I mean a burp like a sailor. It is so embarrassing!!!!!

Oh you will know!

I tried to watch it but it was just too weird for me!

I had a one night hospital stay and no drain...

Agree! Victoria has never had anything big enough to hold my secret but it won't be long now!!!

I had lots of pain for the fort eight days. I couldn't go from sitting to standing without help. HOWEVER, I had to have two more incisions than anticipated because of the enormous amount of fat that was surrounding my liver. Dr told my husband that a fairly simple procedure became rather complicated because of it. I say that to say there was a lot more going on in my guy that most peoples. The Tylenol 3 dint help me at all. After three days of crying- not from he pain but for no reason at all- we discovered that is was the codeine in the T3 that was making me cry. Ugh!!!

Great thoughts!!!

I started at 304, was 287 the day of surgery and am 235 now. Still 90 lbs to my goal but it's coming off slowly but surely!

I feel as if I am a slow looser too. I was sleeved 07/01 and am down 69 pounds as of today. I read of people sleeved after me that have lost in excess of 100 pounds. Makes me frustrated and sad but if I have to loose 1-2 pounds a week so be it.

ME TOO!!!!!
