  4. I can say one thing. No matter what u will go through. it is going to change your life. I am 11 months after and 149 pounds lighter. i feel amazing. this is the 2nd best achievment in my life. the 1st best achievment was getting married. The first 6 first weeks were the most difficult, some weired sensation in stomich at the begginig before have the staples taking out, allot of dehydration and weekneses for a few weeks. it all went away after 6 weeks. Good luck.
  5. Happy new year to you too. I am invited to my sister as well. the food there will be amazing i know. what i will do is tast a bit of each food and when i feel my stomich telling me to stop then i will stop right away. Shana tova umetuka.

    Looking Sick...

    i think its normal at the beginning, that after a few month we still look weired because the weight lose is not proportional and the face looks pale. but it all will go away. you have to be proud that you got this opportunity to do the surgery. you have to understand as well that when people know you as a big person and all of a sudden your face look thin as a fish, it looks weired to them. everyone will allways compliment you,.
  9. same thing for me. i have been told it because i dont consume enough calories. but i think it is because the body is in shock. it will continue burning the fars for sure. i only took down 1.5 pound in the last 2 weeks.

    When Does The Gas End?

    it will go away.
  15. i got this light headed and disiness for allmost 7 weeks after surgery. it is a normal step. when i started to drink more it became better. what help me more is mixing my water with electrolyte powder i buy at the pharmacy. i am on my 8 week and still get a bit of disiness when i over exercise at the gym. i recommend taking it easy and drink the water with electrolytes.
