Thank you! I've definitely been really polite about it and I would definitely want good job comments over anything! Weight loss is not easy! I'm very proud!!

Thank you so much! My surgery was in January and I was preparing myself for this but I'm just going through the last month picking up my hair everywhere

I like the new do idea too!!

Holy smokes my hair is getting thinner and thinner! What products do you take for hair?

Does the hair falling out ever stop??

I used to have so much and it is just coming out so intensely!

I haven't told many people about my surgery, maybe less than 5. I always get comments about my weight but does anyone ever get annoyed by some of the things people say?

Someone literally asked if I was ok, like sick.. ill...

Other people straight out ask me how much weight I've lost or say wow you look like a complete different person did your doctor put you on a diet?

Wtf!

I know my NSV's and the way I feel outweigh it all but those little comments really irk me!

I'm an introvert there is no way I'm going to tell someone an exact number as to what I've lost.

Sorry guys for the long rant! I do feel so good though!!

Hi everyone,

The last few weeks I've been having trouble with Protein shakes! I'm on week 8 and weeks 1-6 it was fine getting my protein through shakes and these last few weeks My stomach has been hurting right after drinking them.feeling upset and gassy. Not sure why I was fine before but now I am not?

Two weeks ago I ran out of Premier Protein so I tried a few rockin refuels and also some 100% whey and they made my stomach upset. Finally got to costco and went back to my premier shake and that even made my stomach upset and had never before.

Could it possibly be the milk? Any ideas out there?

Thank you!

I've been so happy at taking to go boxes home and I've learned to just ignore those bread or chip platters! That was what hurt me in the first place I had no self control around them!

That is not ok. Not only are you his wife but to say that right after you've went through this life changing procedure is so wrong. He should be supporting you not telling you things like this! Focus on you and your recovery! Nobody deserves that! Sounds like he's insecure.

Thank you so much! I'm so happy, 29 today and feeling great! Thank you for your support!!

I'm so happy!! Not only is today my birthday but I hit ONEderland!! What a great feeling!! I am one happy Gal!! 7 weeks post op and down 48.2!

Two weeks

I have only told 4 people. My mom, my husband my brother and best friend. they've all been very supportive. I'm back at work and have lost almost 50 lbs, I feel great and I always get compliments at work. My surgery did happen after an ankle surgery I had so I hadn't seen anyone from work in 8 weeks they think it's all related to my ankle I just say I'm eating healthier cause I can't work out and watching my weight. High Protein low carb

I'm at 3 1/2 weeks and I've weighed the same weight for over a week and I'm the same exact weight every day down to the ounce!

Is this common? So weird and I'm so ready for this weight to come off! Atleast something move and I find it so odd that it's down to the ounce that is not moving!

Anyone have similar situations?

I didn't get any info from the doctor I waited about a week

Yeah definitely cold!!!

I used to only track on Sunday's my measurements and weight but now it's split. My surgery was on a Tuesday so I weigh in on Tuesdays but still do measurements on Sunday morning so my husband can help me!

I'll be two weeks exactly when I start work on Tuesday and the swelling is definitely down! I agree it lasted about 5-10 days. I feel a lot better too!

so far once a week, on sundays I weigh in and record my measurements!

I had read something online about h pylori that about 70% of people have the bacteria and most show no symptoms at all.

I tested positive for It and took my meds, my second test came out negative. I'm not sure why I had it or what as I had never heard of it either but everything is good now!

I definitely freaked out about it for awhile so that's normal but don't worry too much! I'm sure those antibiotics will clear it up.

The amoxicillin gave me a yeast infection so that part sucked!

Thank you everyone! It definitely felt great!! Definitely writing this one down

So exciting!!

I dont have PCOS but I have an IUD and rarely get a period and if I do it lasts less than 24 hours and it's spotting ( sorry if TMI)

When I was on my liquid diet pre surgery I got the heaviest period I had in years! and lasted very long. I thought it may have been due to my body changes.

I did get what I think was a Yeast infection post surgery.. my doc said probably cause of antibiotics - didnt last too long! haha sorry another tmi

Okay, I am not sure if this is what you would classify as an "NSV" but I went out for the first time with my family tonight to dinner. I totally did fine having Soup ( still on liquid diet ) and I even brought home a TO GO BOX!!

Nobody's food bothered me like I thought maybe it would, it was our favorite little taqueria in town. I dont recall ever EVER bringing home to go boxes!!! Handled the Soup broth like a champ and brought home enough for the next day!!

Very Happy Gal!

Cheers!

Thank you everyone! What great ideas!! I am definitely going to try to find some cheap steals and leggings/dresses! I definitely have those!!

I was having a little freak out moment earlier trying to figure out how to dress for the office again! This helps!!

Congrats and Thanks everyone!!

Thank you! I needed something too! I had surgery on 1/6 and it's been bad!

Hi everyone!

I'm about a week and a half post op and have lost about 36 pounds since pre surgery. I had an ankle injury that has had me off work for 8 weeks. I was at my highest weight when I left.

Fast forward to today, I start work next Tuesday and I'm finally putting on my work clothes and I look like I'm swimming in most shirts. Do you continue to wear baggy or look for fitted clothes right away? I'm struggling with what to do! I feel like I'm wearing a parachute in some shirts!

What did you do when this happened? Did you go fitted or kept wearing baggy clothes for awhile?

I'm so sorry there are people like that in this world. Prayers to you and your wife
