i have only lost 25 pounds and i am 2 months out. and im 28, not over 50, so whats my excuse?? i have just come to the conclusion that i will be a slow loser and i guess i had high expectations for the sleeve before. now, those expectations are nowhere near where i am, and i try so hard. i work out often. it sucks, but i try not to compare myself to the post i just read from someone who lost 50 pounds in 5 weeks!!! what the hell!!!....oh well, if i didnt have bad luck id have no luck at all!

I am two weeks out and am losing very slowly, the scale hasn't moved in almost a week and I am wondering if my PCOS has something to do wi this. This surgery is my last hope, I did this to help my PCOS symptoms. I hope I am not having false expectations.

oh fack, dont you just hat that?! i literally have hotten that my WHOLE life...i completely agree with you, that will be THE DAY, when someone says u have a nice body, or you look good from head to toe...not just head. lol

It is very normal to be thinking you will be one of the few people who dont succeed with the sleeve. just over two months ago i was thinking the same thing going into it. I am now about 2 months and 1 week out and i STILL have those thoughts. why? the sleeve isnt a miracle, i already find myself regressing back to old habits. surgery will not take away all your cravings and hunger. maybe the first couple weeks, but it will change. i have no problems eating food and if i wanted to snack on chips all day, i could. maybe a little at a time, but i still could. it requires hard work and i find that out more and more everyday. it is not easy, and it is not a "cure". i fight for every pound i lose. but it does help get your mind right in the beginning, its up for you for it to stay that way. and i battle with that all the time. but i wish you the best of luck!!

i am a little over two months post op as well and have been dealing with pretty bad nausea for the past month off and on...The first month felt like a breeze now i feel sick all the time as well. While i have no restrictions with food, i can eat pretty much anything already, i still feel quite nausious often. i have consulted with my bariatric surgeon thinking it was my sleeve, my obgyn, thinking it was the new birth control, and my pcp. and he just wants to give me anti nausea medicine but i dont think that is going to solve the underlying problem, plus i dont want to be on another medication for another symptom, ya know. wish you luck!

First off, try and not stress over the date. He is just a man, and trust me, men are far more stress than not. haha. I could easily tell you not to worry, that your beautiful, you should feel happy with your weight loss so far and that if he doesnt like you for you then he is not worth it. BUT, ive been in your shoes, and it is easier said then done. I have been with my man for almost 4 years and i STILL sometimes stress about what i look like, what im going to wear, etc. And through all my experience i can tell you this: as hard as it may be, when you are out with him, do not stress too much about how you look, or what your stomach looks like when you sit down or how your arms look when you take off your jacket, because you know what, those thoughts will consume you and you will end up not having any fun. The guy will appreciate smiles and laughter much more than a woman who cant stop thinking about how they look, cause trust me, they can tell! BUT, have a wonderful time. the dress looks good and you will do great!!

I am only 28 pounds down, so i may not have as much input as others, but the first place i saw a change in was my face. The face is usually the first to go. and i think almost everyone notices my weight loss because of my "skinny" face now. From my past experiences, with all my attempts to los weight, for me, the hardest to get rid of is my legs and arms. BUT, i have noticed my arms got a bit smaller. Thank god, because i always cover up my arms, no matter what the weather be. I am very self conscious about them. my waist has gotten smaller as well, i can tell in my clothes. and me legs just have gotten more muscular. But from what i hear, the face and tummy are the first to go, or get smaller, so you have that on your side! haha. good luck!

you need to up your calories...and start adding real food in as much as u can tolerate...liquid diet and shakes have done me no good! upping my cals and eating real food, the weigh is finally coming off, i was stuck FOREVER!!!....wasnt eating enough

yes it hurts like hell. you would never think gas pains would be as high as they get after surgery. it is ffrom the gas they pump you up with. mine took almost 2 weeks to go away, but it DOES go away. you just have to wait and let it pass. good luck!

i smoke weed every day! ha. suck on that everyone
