  1. Has anyone else noticed their tailbone hurts after sitting once the fat on your butt is gone ! I'm glad the big butt has left but who would have thought this was a side effect lol

    Almost passed out...

    Happens to me also! I figure it's from low calorie diet ! It's disappears after a few seconds of standing

    POST-OP chime in

    It doesn't taste as good once you stop eating it but I do eat a French fry here and there . By the time I eat protein there isn't much room for anything else .

    Help from a pro?

    Take a picture before surgery and get gas ex strips I took lemon vitamin water with me .no need to go overboard on buying stuff
  7. For me the first two days where the worst I was nauseous from dehydration . Your stomach is swollen and not many fluids can go down. It's wasn't until I forced sips in every few minutes that I felt better. I have 5 small incisions that I can just barely see now at 6 months. The pain on the side they took stomach out hurt for 3 weeks but not excoriating . The more you walk and sip the better you will be. Each day was always better then the previous . I was also scared of pain before surgery but that was 60 pounds ago! Glad I did it:)have pillows , gas strips, and different flavored drinks & heat pad on hand.
  8. Anyone tried eating steak yet?
  9. Spent today on the beach ! I was able to buy some lingerie today, husband like me not sleeping in a 3x t shirt .. And my shorts today was a size 12 ! Haven't seen that number in many years. I was in a 20 before sleeve. Down 60 since sleeve and 80 this year . Here is a big pat on the shoulder to all of us April sleevers

    Problems with password

    Got temp password but can't figure out how to reset it with a new password
  13. Each day will get a little better! My first two weeks consisted of walking and sipping around the clock. The only fluids I liked where vitamin water with a little sugar free lemonade to give it a better taste. And premiere shakes It took about 4 weeks before the sharp stomach pain left. I used gas x Strips and a heat pad on my back . Had pillows tucked everywhere in recliner to sleep. But each day was a better then the previous day so hang in there

    Problems with password

    Updated phone can't log in? Can I get a temporary password so I create a new one ?
  15. Gettingsexyback did you exercise regular? Just wondering if that may have helped with sagging skin.
  16. I took Tylenol ( acetaminophen ) arthritis strength for mine it's the strongest over the counter Tylenol product. The loratab was too strong and made me sick .
  17. Your headaches may be from caffeine withdrawals . Light headed may be from your blood sugar being lower then what your body has been use too getting .

    Runny Nose?

    I get a runny noise every time I'm full!! It's weird I don't why there is a connection but it is ! I was sleeved in April and have read where others have the same side effect .

    Fat burners and supplements

    A stall is expected in this process . Just keep doing what your told make sure your not eating too many carbs and you will start dropping weight again. My stall lasted 2 weeks

    Post Op Blues?

    And yes u can eat real food! I had a double pattie burger with cheese the other day . I didn't eat the bread and just used a fork . You just eat differently.

    Post Op Blues?

    I think we were all addicted to eating or we wouldn't be in this shape. But I can tell you each day it will get better !! I didn't like broth . It needed more flavor. I love choc premiere shakes ! And unjury chic soup. I am now 5 1/2 months post surgery and today fit in a size 12 pants! They were snug but I FIT ! I have had two stalls on the scales but I stuck to the routine protein first low carbs. I was wearing a 22 pant prior to surgery !!
  22. My protein has been hamburger pattie on George Forman ( 1/2) eggs ham thick sliced with hidden valley flavored greek cream cheese rolled in it , greek yogurt and almonds
  23. Karla23 some men are dogs and it sounds like he can be replaced ! ( with new smaller clothes) then another more deserving guy. Just looking at your pick you are very pretty and I bet he will be replaced soon with a newer and better version lol. Our hair will come back . Mine is super thin and I've been using topix spray to disguise it. That's the only product from topix I liked.
  24. I had that source of life liquid vitamin . You have to be a very strong willed person to drink it. I'm glad I had it but one week was all I could do.
