    My Dr said to kiss soda and alcohol good bye forever. He won't support it. Even after the first year. LOL

    Following Dr's orders has worked wonders. She ups your calories every 4 months.

    Calories..

    My Dr said to keep it at 600 calories. Now that I burn 1000 calories a day she up'd it to 800.

    Anyone use the itworks wraps?

    You can actually get the same results with bengay and plastic wrap. This technique is old school.. my mom use to pay top dollars to have her entire body wrapped.

    Hair Loss?

    I'm 3 months post op and mine started to shed about 4 weeks ago. My hair is about 1/2 as thick now. I take all my Vitamins, eat 75 to 100 grams of Protein a day and drink about 75 ounces. My hair seems to be slowing down. I think my hair loss is the last thing I should worry about tho. Remember that this is only temporary. I'm actually having fun wearing my clip in weave to get back the fullness and add a little length to the back. If you can't achieve it.. weave it!

    Jiggle wiggle

    Hang in there... Remember we didn't do this to look like Americas Next Top Models... This was to be healthier. I had a major belly and I'm trying to target it right now with Tae Bo Advanced and calistetics. I've seen a MAJOR decrease in my abdominal area. Just stick to it.

    Soda yes? No?

    Oh no no no... Ive been under the knife to lose this weight and soda was "part" of the reason I got in this situation.
  18. LeticiaHuggins

    Hmm how much have you lost

    I had mine 4/21/13 and have lost 48 lbs since. I've lost a total of 83.5 lbs since the very beginning tho. I think it depends the weight you started out at. Discharged from the hospital I was 221. For those that were 300+ they'll lose much faster. I may not go down in lbs fast but my size is decreasing quick. I'm wearing a size 10 and a medium shirt now.

    Lady Business.

    I got my period the day I was discharged. It was really heavy and for 2-3 days. It only comes once ever month but like you said... Dang, where is all this blood coming from?

    Shopping

    Size 1? .... Oh Em Gee what did you start out at? When was your surgery?
  21. LeticiaHuggins

    Is my scale wrong?

    I know ... Right! Well I can work with 30 lbs. LOL

    Eating two weeks post op

    What works for one person may not work for another... I didn't have to blend my food cause I chewed well. You should follow the rules and if you can cut the roles just be wise about it.

    tired

    I agree... Increase you're Water, Protein and water. Also make sure you're eating enough carbs. You may also need to increase your B12 and B50... You may need to start fettichini B12 shots. Also... Fatigue does go hand and hand with the Post RNY life. Sometimes you just become fatigue and there is nothing you can do about it. If you're doing what is required .. it shall pass. It happens because your pouch doesn't take in all the mutton it needs. You might even be anemic right now too. Go to your Dr and get your blood work done again.
