Not much new sexy
Well feeling/looking/ and being sexy all come from within. Even at my biggest I really didn't have a problem with this so I'm not sure how to help. I did just buy some new bright red lipstick and that made me feel smoking hot! Lol it does help that my husband thinks I'm sexy even on my worst days ????paint your nails, paint ur lips and say "damn I'm HOT" ☺️????

3 weeks post op
I stalled for a few weeks!! It was frustrating. But it passes. Just keep doing what u are supposed to do. This week 5 pounds just disappeared but in my 3 week stall I lost like 1-2. Lol it's your body adjusting, all normal.

Gaining weight starting at week 4!
That is normal at 4 weeks. I bobble up and down 2 pounds all the time. Also at least once a month (my cycle) i gain 2-4 pounds. Don't stress the numbers

Will I always be cold?
Low carbs will cause this. Carbohydrates fuel and heat the body. I have never been cold natured. I freeze since my surgery.

6 weeks out and feel like I can eat like a normal person! Ugh!
But I could not eat say 3/4 cup of just chicken. Way too dense.

Fatigue
It just takes a while. It will pass when u start getting real food. I was sleeved on 10/23. I still have days I am fatigued. Our bodies are still adjusting. It was much better starting at about 6 weeks out.

So sad about Hair Loss
I too am scared of this. I just try to get my protein and vitamins in. My hair has ALWAYS fallen out in thick clumps. But it constantly grows back and I have plenty of it still. I'm only 7 weeks PO so far so good. Just my normal any when I wash my hair. But knowing it stops offers some condolence.

Slow, slow, and slower! Pounds are wanting to stay!
babbs im not worried per say. Just that it all happened so early and just seemed to STOP. MY SW was 275 CW 242. I'm 4'11.5". My BMI was like 53! Just thought the 1st 50 pounds would be super easy as I'm SO fat ???? by no means am I ungrateful for what I have lost already, nor will it throw me off my plan and my pushing forward

Threw up
I threw up for my 1st time at 7 weeks! Not sure why, maybe over ate? Mine was just mucous. No chunks of food. Was really weird. I got really bad indigestion. So I started taking medicine for it and it hasn't happened again.
