I'd like to join too!

Hi all! I have a stupid question! I am 5 months out and have had no problems what so ever . The last 3 days I have had a bad case if the runs and no appetite. I teach kindergarten so I suspected it was a bug I caught from the kiddos but it is not going away! Now my anxiety is rearing it's ugly head and I'm thinking it may be something worse??? Any thoughts??

I actually had it done aug 13th and was back for meetings and school by the 23rd. I was nervous because I reach kindergarten but managed:)

I'm in! My goal will be 210...that will be 110 pounds since surgery:). That is 16 pounds to go!

I have never gotten sick:)

Thanks for all the help. I am not going to weigh myself as often

Hi all!! I had my surgery in August and consider myself a slow loser. I have lost 46 pounds since surgery...66 pounds since preop and 86 since I started this journey in April. I got on the scale this am and tears welled in my eyes!! I was up almost 2 pounds! I have not once swayed...avoid sugar all together... Eat fairly Low carb...no bread, pasta or rice. I am scared!! Why am I gaining? Is it normal for your body to do this?? I do know I gave been lax in the exercise department:(. Perhaps that is what?? Any thoughts would be appreciated!!!! Mari

I love following along with everyone's journeys:). I am feeling quite discouraged because it seems like I am a very slow loser:(. Everyone that has had surgery after me has lost so much more!! I know I am not overeating.....but I know I don't get all my water in. I'm in a funk:(. Feel like I did all this for nothing:((((((

Hi all!! I was sleeved August 13th and have been doing well. I am a kindergarten teacher and even returned to work this week. I prepared myself for this new part if my journey but I have to say today is the first day I feel overwhelmed.....overwhelmed because even though I'm not hungry I miss some foods....overwhelmed because nothing fits me any more......overwhelmed because I feel people in my life pulling away because they think I can't be included in social activities because I can't eat. I am on pureed food and having a hard time with the texture of it......nothing has bothered my new belly thank god!! Guess I am just having an emotional day!!!! Thanks for listening:))) Mari
