It took me a good 3 months to feel like myself again. Not only is your body adjusting to the lower calories, but your recovering from a major surgery. Be patient, it gets better! A year later and I have never been happier.

Queefing is like when air comes out of your vagina... usually it happens during sex cause air gets pushed in there. I just am wondering if the huge weight loss is why I've been getting this feeling during the day not specifically during sex

Ok, so I am 1 year out and have now lost 107 lbs (Yay me!!!!) But along with all the loose skin I've noticed I've been queefing lately, and not during sex. ... am I alone?

I have PCOS, and have not had any issues losing weight. I'm down 67lbs in 3.5 months.

Those were my exact stats! I'm now at 3.5 months and down about 67lbs and in Onderland. It's been a good ride so far. I really need to get on the excercixe train, but excuses and legitimate stress has made it hard.

Just remember 2 months is not as long as it seems. That weight loss is AMAZING! You don't feel it yet because you are still recovering. It wasn't unil I was about 10 weeks out that I felt like myself, and felt better, and lighter. Hang in there, you're gonna turn a corner soon!

Shopping in the normal section of a store, single digit sizes, feeling good in panties. OH and bracelets!!!

A first this sounds good, then all I can think is how fast does it relieve constipation.... Talk about killing the mood. To the OP: My boyfriend and I were oraly intimate 4 days post op, and vaginal shortly there after. So at 5 months I can't see any problem if your in the mood. TBH (tmi warning) I've been too drained over all for anal, as it takes more effort lol. ENJOY!!!!

So last night I think I woke up from a brain stall. Brain Stall: A period of time where your brain stops registering your weightloss The last few weeks I have felt like a fatty fatty two by four. I know part of the reason was I had only been losing 2lbs a week and then one pound. I was starting to feel those old helpless feelings again, the ones that plauged me in every diet I have ever attempted. I almost started to believe this was it. As of last friday, May 2nd, I had lost 56 lbs and I was 208, a weight I havent seen in 4 years. I couldn't see it. I could barely see any of my success thus far. It was disheartening, Then last night I saw a reflextion of my self that I hadn't seen since Highschool/after my 1st year of college. Even better, I look skinnier now than I did then because all of my weightloss is in my face and waist up. It was a big lightbulb moment for me. This is working. My body dreams are coming true.

It's one thing to express concern or fear about a friend having surgery, but for her to get on a high horse and say she was disappointed.... I wouldn't count her as a friend. I had a minor issue when I told my best friend, and she lashed out, and told me she didnt want me to do it, and then accused me of doing it because of hating myself and stuff. I had to tell her that I thought she was projecting, and that I made a choice based on my health that was rooted in a medical solution after research. She has since apologized and been supportive. Again though if I had gotten that response, I'm not sure where our relationship would be right now. Kudos for you though, for handeling it that way. I'm not sure what I would have said. Also, super congrats on your weight loss!!!!

Ok, so last night I was up working on some make up assignments for my anatomy class. I suddenly had a craving for the raisen bran that was in my kitchen (My boyfriend and I are staying with his parents until we move out of state this summer, and believe me, that is one of the best things in the house that they buy for themselves) I decieded to induldge without reading the box. I had about 3/4 of a cup, maybe a little less. I figured, Raisen Bran is healthy and a old favorite, and a much better choice than frsted flakes. When I logged it in MFP this morning, my less than full serving had 30 something carbs!!!! WTH?! Ugh. Thats what I get for not reading the box. At least it has fiber!

Also remember that gluten free has nothing to do with low carb, or no carb.

I have this issue from time to time, and my BO is definately different than it was before. I have read that this is usually a side effect from ketosis. I just keep body spray with me to keep me feeling fresh. Have you tried the clinical strength yet? That may help.

I can eat a small amount of hard ice cream, but soft serve or more than 3 bites makes me feel like I'm dying.
