    Help!

    Hi jktefft, I felt the same way you did but I was able to get through it. I am so glad I did because I really believe that by sticking with it my healing after surgery went much smoother then I thought. The healing process has a lot to do with the Protein you are taking priot to surgery that prepares your body for surgery. Stick with it, you won't regret it.

    August sleevers progress

    SW: 313 Surgery: 306 Current Weight 234 Total lost 79 lbs Just going through my first stall. I am so happy that I made the decision to have WLS. One of the best decision's I have made in a long time. It is definitely work but well worth it. Congratulations to everyone and their successes!!

    pain where the stomach is

    Yes, I get a similar feeling, not really pain but just a little uncomfortable. That is my indicator that I need to quit eating, that is my full indicator.

    Need to lose weight quick for surgery

    I lost 10 pouds in 2 weeks drinking 4 protein shakes a day, light yogurt, sugar free jello and sugar free pudding. This is all I ate every day for two weeks.

    Please help!

    I drank Isopure for the first week after surgery. I didn't like the flavors very much but it did give me the protein i needed. It's a little pricey but is easy to drink because its a pure liquid drink.
  7. Hi, I am six weeks out and can only seem to take in about 900 calories per day, if this normal? Don't get me wrong, I am very happy about the continued weight loss I just want to make sure I am getting the correct amount of calories. Thanks everyone for your help!

    Turning a corner with hair loss?.

    When does the hair loss start? I know it will be different for everyone but just wanting to get an idea. I am not looking forward to it.
  11. Hi, my name is Stephanie and I am just one week postop. Had the vertical sleeve procedure on 8/23. Found this website while searching for answers. So far so good. Getting a little tired of mushy food but it's worth it!

    Just one week postop

    Thanks Harley. I am doing pretty well. I can get most of my food in and my liquid and protein for the most part. How are you doing?
