  1. I am post-op 11 mos and I have slowed down way too much. I no longer have drive or energy to do what I know to do. Need some encouragement...I am not hitting my weight goal at my year mark in a few weeks. How can I get it going again...thoughts?

      I think if I were in the situation you are in right now, I would go back and look at my before and during pictures. I'm betting seeing the HUGE change would give me enough of a kick in the pants to get going again. Or perhaps go back to basics for a few days, and sort of reset your stomach and metabolism. There is also something called the five day pouch test that may help you. Try not to get too discouraged. You've come a looong way and worked hard to be here, and you'll be able to keep going because you already know you have the strength. Take care and be kind to yourself. :)

      Try reviewing a couple of weeks of your food diaries. You may find that you've been more liberal than you'd been previously. Also do yourself the favor of recalling that few goals have an end date. It's the doing that achieves the goal, but there's no calendar attached. Certainly not when it comes to weight loss. You're still losing, so relax. You're doing/getting what you set out to do nearly a year ago. You're way ahead of the game.

  2. Sex life is definitely on blast. Husband was surprised and a little intimidated. LOL He told me now he has to lose weight just to keep up. I am changing so fast he feels like he is sleeping with a new woman!!!! I have already changed so much that he "feels" it. All in a very good way!
  3. I was sleeved on the 22nd too! Going in for two week post op visit with doctor today. Surgery was a success and I feel so much better. So glad I went with the sleeve.

    This is what I want for my last child to do, hug me and get his little arms around my waist.

    Hair loss

    I would suggest a product called Manetabolism. I have been losing my hair because of thyroid issues. It works sooner than you expect it to by slowing down the loss first and then building up the strength of what you have and starting the growth process. Its created by a couple in the medical field she is a nurse and he is a doctor. Hope this helps.

    Thank you for your story...keep losing! I want to do the same as you. Have the surgery and feel good after working out again.
