I had my surgery on 9/2 and I am down 50.pounds since surgery. I'm disappointed as well. Sorry ur going thru so much. I know it's hard to not compare. To me I never know if I'm doing well or not.

I'm 4 months out and have noticed my energy just draining. I have no energy at all. Feel completely depleted. When does the energy kick in because it has yet to happen for me!

I have not had my post blood work done. It feels like I am always tired. Worst time is in the afternoon. The log is a good idea. Thanks! I really wish I can get it figured out. I can't function like this. Caffeine doesn't even help at all

I did try genepro based off of this site. I am on the opposite side. I can taste it and feel it gets clumpy. Def didn't work for me but does have a ton of protein

Wow donnamaria65 that is excellent. Congratulations to you. I am glad u said that about taking it back to basics. That is exactly what I need and am going to do. That way I'm making sure I eat for nutrition and protein not satisfaction or taste. I am going to out the scale away and only weigh myself every so often. It's becoming too much for me to do everyday and is taking a toll on my outlook on my weight.

That is exactly what I do. I weigh myself numerous times a day and do measurements and depending how it comes out sets my mood. I really need to have my husband hide it. Sounds pathetic but I obviously have problems with self control. I know I just need to focus on how I feel and not the numbers. I'm just so scared of failing.

Easier said than done Maggie0210. Thanks for the nice comment. I really am hard on myself. I just worry its gonna be like before. Start a diet, lose some weight, slack off and end up back at the weight and then some. It's hard for me.because I have no idea how I'm doing. I compare myself to people on here and feel like I'm not losing like I should.

Well I would love to but the old one is not digital and the new one is digital and precise. Who can argue with it. Guess it makes sense now why I always weighed more at the doctors. All I want is to get under 200!!! Now I'm further away and am frustrated

I get so sick of feeling yucky all the time. Lately it seems I have this emptiness in my stomach and sometimes eating or drinking doesn't help. My stomach always feels off and makes lots of noise. That's gonna be embarrassing at meetings and a training. It's all the time gurgling and feeling terrible. Nothing seems to relieve it. I spoke to the docs office about me throwing up and then having this terrible feeling in my stomach all the time. I was not very comforted to hear that this is normal and for some it goes away and for others it has just become apart of life. Uggghh maybe if I wasn't stalled for the last 3 weeks I'd see it as worth it but as of now...I'm seeming to be having a hard time not regretting this surgery. I don't think my body is happy.

I feel like everything gets stuck and needs to come back up. I'm not eating anything I shouldn't be will try to take it slower.

I'm having trouble as well. Sometimes I'm not sure how I'm doing. It's been almost 11 weeks since surgery and I'm down 40 pounds. To be honest I thought I would lose more. I do have trouble eating and more trouble getting my protein in. I wonder if I'm doing ok or if it's time to revamp things. It's so hard to not compare. I am happy to be losing at all but seems to get stuck a lot

I started having a pain like a really bad stomach ache that is in my upper middle and upper right abdomen. It began this afternoon. It was hours after ate. It is still very persistent - has not let up but also has not improved any. No nausea or diarrhea. Any ideas? I'm debating how long I should let it go on before I call my doc.

I had gastric bypass 9/2

How often do u typical urinate through the day? since surgery and going back to work I maybe urinate twice a day. I drink (Maybe not as much as I should). I have a hard time having to time food and drinking. I usually always feel thirsty and will most always pick drinking over wanting to eat. Just debating if this is something I should make my doc aware of.

I am five weeks out and have been experiencing pains on my lower right and left side. I have stopped eating the past couple days and am still having problems. Any ideas what this could be?

I had surgery on 9/2. In the past couple days I have felt very bloated, lots of tummy noises, diarrhea and feeling pretty yucky. Anyone else having probs like this? Hoping it goes away soon.

I agree Larly109. Mine seems very tempermental. Seems like My good pouch days are becoming far and few between

I had my surgery on 9/2 and feel the same way!

Has anyone experienced body aches while losing weight?

I'm 4 weeks out and seem to be dropping weight quickly. I def don't meet my protein goals. It's been hard for me to fit in eating and drinking. I always feel thirsty and usually pick that over eating. It's hard to schedule everything all the time. I have to be better at it because I def feel sore and achy and don't want it getting worse. I wish there was high dose protein pills lol

Jeeze I'm almost 4 weeks out and have only lost 16 pounds. U guys r doing awesome

It seems every time I eat...I'm getting sick with stomach pains. What gives? It's making me scared to eat anything...even just a few bites

Wow I wish I knew about this. I would have def wanted one

I've been so sick since last night. made a pure protein shake with half water half lactaid milk. Last night I had terrible stomach pains and haven't been able to get away from the bathroom for long. Tmi. My stomach is gurgling and just is really upset. Wow I hope I don't have to call my docs. Hoping tomorrow I will feel better. Ugghh this is no fun

Damn auto correct
