Hi.... my DOS was in November.... how's everyone doing? What's your results? I just wanna know the average weightloss . I'm down 70lbs... I think had I exercised more and ate healthier I would of lost more...well as of July 1, I'm finally focusing on working out... I cut out bad carbs, bread, potato, pasta....which i know i should of done in the beginning, however, unfortunately old habits die hard.. the only rice I do eat is in sushi, 3 pieces is all I can handle.... ID like to lose another 30lbs asap, then go for my referral for a tummy tuck... just wanna hear what other people are going thru

Thanks worm!! I just need to start working out and add more protein to my diet. At least that's what im going to try....i haven't worked out yet cuz i had complications in the beginning.... so i had my first surgery nov 8th, got a blockage, they redid my surgery the 13th, then i got pneumonia and fluid in my lung. I was in hospital for almost a month.. im feeling good now...i just get tired quick..

Omg! That was my date 11/13/12! Im only down 46lbs.... what do you eat? Do you workout?

Whats the average weight loss for November peeps.. .that 4 months out now...

Thank you for responding.... im going to wait it out til tomorrow to see if anything changes... my P.A called....said to eat soft foods and call her in morning..... im wondering could it be gas?

Help.. has this happened to anyone? Yesterday i had sharp pain in middle of my tummy, threw up twice.. layed down, felt better but tummy still sore.... today my left side is hurting bad....sharp pain. could it be something i ate is stuck.. i put a call into my P.A to see what i should do..

I tried Hiyaki..which is sushi wrapped in white fish instead of rice. I ate one and half piece and threw it up with in 10-15min... soo no more sushi for me!!

I made this taco thing and it was sooo good! My whole family liked it and i was able to keep it down!! You gotta try it!

So glad you're doing better campka!

Ok..let me know how you like those shakes!!.... im doing better each day!...

Im doing better just really sore .. if im up too much my tummy feels swollen or bloated ... I get constipated a lot... the Collace isn't working, so im going to try milk of magnesium ... how are you?... im Marisa btw...

I had a bad experience ... I went through a lot... I had an obstruction, had to get another surgery 4 days apart, then I got pneumonia, then had to have fluid drained from my lung... I was in hospital 3wks... I've been out 2 wks... really sucked but im doing better... im even still swollen or at least my tummy feels bloated & still real sore... I've lost 21lbs so far... Dr Apr tomorrow .... I know im not getting in enough protein ... when i tried to drink a shake I threw it up... do you drink pre made shakes or do you make your own?

Yay worm!!!! ... hey you know that taco soup recipe that is on here...im 5.5 wks out...do you think I'd be ok trying it?

Awesome rule! Thank you!

Explain the 20:10:10 rule please ....

Worm...try taking two pills and lots of water... I drink sun tea no sugar...but I notice that helped me go. Im 5 wks out.

Question ... how do I put a profile pic up?

Im 5 wks out too... when can i try this?

How many wks or months out do you have to be to eat this???... I was told no corn also... same restrictions as onmyway2life comment....

Ugh i miss my baked lobster roll!!!.... Im 5 wks out... im going to wait til im 2 months out and then go try... except not the lobster roll ...I know the place I go to has a protein roll. . No rice... so im going to check that out... im guessing ill be able to actually eat 2 pieces ... let me know how it works for you ... good luck!

Wow... so glad to learn this now!!

Did you do anything different or eat a particular way the last few wks? Im 5wks out...

Im 5 wks out today... my tummy hurts! Not sure if its gas, or if im bloated or if its swollen .... I ate some Mexican cheese... queso fresco with broth... could that have given me gas or messed me up?? Im really hurting ... feels bruised or like my insides wanna fall out ... when does this soreness go away!!

You could have an obstruction, that's what happened to me... get a CT asap!

Had the sleeve 2yrs ago, I lost 65lbs which of course wasn't enough. Went for a revision to bypass Nov 8, 2012... 4 days later was rushed in ambulance for another emergency surgery due to an obstruction, so my Dr redid whole surgery again on Nov 13th.... then a week later I got pneumonia ... so yea its been a traumatic experience but all things happen for a reason. It definitely showed me how i really took my health for granted ... im still learning my body, how I have to eat & drink slow. What foods I can eat. Ill be 5 wks out tomorrow from my second surgery ... any tips on just how to live and eat during this time?? Im still real sore, mainly by left incision .... also, how do i put a pic up?
