  1. I take iron and do not have this problem at all
  2. Which was the better surgery for med absorbtion?
  3. No acne here, and pits are ok too. I did have sone emotions, but that just comes with a big change such as this
  4. You are going to get there. Your body will work at its own speed. I know its hard not to see the results, but you might be shedding the inches right now
  5. Yippee!i have never lost a pound a day! Good job
  6. Dont take aleve! Nsaids can give you ulcers. Tylenol is what we have to take.
  7. I hope I lose down like you! My goal is 115.
  8. Fyi you are putting 5 lbs of water in you every day you drink 80 oz
  9. Im sttill at 2 to 3 lbs a week
  10. Are you on acid blockers? If not get on some. You may be trying foids that are too rough for your pouch, and causing pouch to swell
  11. Hate to recommend this but it may work. Decrease your fluids. 80 is a lot of water. You may be retaining it. My body can not handle as much water. You may be waterlogged. Decrease to 40 to 64 oz per day. You wont dehydrate on that. Just an idea although not a popular one.
  12. The best person to tell you if you are behind is your surgeon. The office I go to says 50 lbs in 6 months is ahead of the game. I know many have lost far more than that. I am losing slow but steady 54 lbs in 4 months
  13. Pasta and carby foods make me dump. I do not puke when I dump. I am weak, dizzy, and sonetimes irritable sweaty abd nauseated
  14. I would think if you back it up and start over it may work. Go back to all liquids, then progress up the ladder again week by week.
  15. Me too. I really need to drink more. Im just never thirsty!
  16. Yep all the time, thats why I dont do what my.body doesnt want. Anytime I make.myself eat, it just comed right up
  17. Yeah someone told.me, why would you want to do that??? I replied with... I will die without it. And it was so true. I was knocking on deaths door.
  18. Yes I know all about disability and pain. So glad you are motivated and not just sitting at home waiting to be thin to enjoy things like that with your daughter. I have missed out on too many things like that.
  19. Yeah you got the food stuck alright! It is painful and just as you described! The bubbles are because your body is attempting to process it, but cant so mucus sputum forms all around it so you can sick it up.
