November sleevers! 6 weeks out and feeling discouraged!
When was the last time you lost 25 lbs in 6 weeks? That's over 4 lbs a week! That's a great loss!!! I've lost just over 45 lbs and gone from an 18/20 to a 14/12 and people still dont say anything. You are still very early out and so far it sounds like your right where you should be. Just stick to your plan because it sounds like your doing great

shopping
At first it's exciting. .. then it gets expensive. Almost all of my tops are like tents on me now and I have to wear an undershirt to keep from being obscene! I go to Ross or TJ Maxx to get a new pair of jeans about every 3 weeks because I just can't wear my pants too big. I'm not spending a significant amount of money on one size of clothes until my weight loss starts to stabilize. In 9 weeks I've went from a size 20 to a 12-14. Pretty much wear the same pants every day and with a different tent on top.

What new habits are you trying to build?
Hmmm... that's a tough one. I've already broken so many bad habits. I think for me the number one thing is to eat more slowly. .. remember it's not a race and since I have such a small amount of food it's ok to take longer to eat it. And exercise. . Remembering how much healthier I feel when I get at least some exercise even if I dont want to.

I got food-policed at 7.5 months out :(
Ah.. the dreaded food police! I had an "issue" with this big time at thanksgiving. Lol... I threw a fit and it has gotten better. It still happens from time to time but even though annoying I feel it's now out of simple curiosity or concern so I try not to flip out. Going postal seems to have worked for me though! Good luck!

Pain from muscle
So wonderful for you to have it all figured out! I bow down to your superiority and perfectionism. As for the rest of us stupid people with lives to live... just before the stitches break (normal) that muscle starts hurting bad again for a couple of days. Then all of a sudden it'll be gone. Get some rest and remember not to over do it. You'll be fine

Is this kind of pain/pressure normal?
Take your meds. Almost all of us are given the acid reducer for the first couple of months. It doesn't matter that you never had reflux before, you never had your stomach severed before either. It was prescribed for a reason and taking it is important to your overall health and success.

Post Opters- did your hungry go away forever or return?
I don't feel hungry from my stomach. When I'm working I don't always get time to eat and I can feel that my body needs fuel. I get a headache, light headed, weak... must be my new hunger.
