Hey I have that same swimsuit! Love it! You look great! How cool is that! Thanks Jess9395;)

Being able to fit into a Victoria Secret swimsuit is not something I thought I'd ever see! I'm so excited!

@@jane13 I never had heartburn before the surgery. I have it so bad now that it wakes me in the middle of the night. I can't eat any seasoning or it fires it up. I can say that I'm on medication for it and it helps a lot

@@jane13 7lbs away from 100, that is great. I'm down 70lbs. My only issues are heartburn(I never had before) and I've thrown up a lot. I'm not sure if I'm not chewing slow enough or what but I go to see the doctor on the 9th.

You look fabulous. Keep up the great work. If you don't mind me asking, What was you surgery weight? I started at 236. Currently 168.

Thanks everyone!

Yesterday marked 6 months since surgery. I am down 68lbs. The picture on the left was last year. The picture on the right was taken yesterday.

How is everyone doing now? What is your total weight loss? How are you feeling?

Yesterday marked 6 months to the day of my surgery. I am down a total of 68lbs The picture on the left was last year. The picture on the right was taken yesterday

Thanks! Will push more fluids

I will be a month out in two days and for the last few days I'm experiencing horrible headaches. I am getting all the fluid and protein needed. I'm also taking the vitamins etc that the doctor has advised me to take. Has anyone else experienced this?

Have you tried Nectar? It is the only protein that I can stomach and it's yummy. It taste like juice. So far I've had the grape juice flavor and fuzzy navel and really like both.

Pinterest has some great recipes including the ricotta bake. I love cheese and lasagna etc, that's what it put me in mind of, lasagna without the noodles ????

I think I need to get rid of my scale. I have stepped on it every morning since coming home from the hospital and I'm driving myself crazy

I tried that ricotta bake before surgery and loved it! Reminded me of lasagna and that was one of my favs. My kids even enjoyed it

I am on puréed foods. I eat Greek yogurt and refried beans.

I am 3 weeks post op. What and how much were you eating at 3 weeks. Also, I've lost 12lbs since surgery, a total of 34 since the 4 week pre op diet. What did you loose by 3 weeks?

O, thank goodness! It is non stop for me at this moment in time. It drives me crazy! The funny thing is I've always hated to hear someone burp, I think it is so rude. It's now a slap in my face.

I will be three weeks out this Tuesday and all I do is burp! I go to sleep burping and wake up burping. Will it ever stop?

I was sleeved the same day. I am not hungry at all but I have found that i love Greek yogurt and refried beans with mozzarella cheese and sour cream, I hated refried beans before and love them now.

What is everyone eating now? And how much are you able to get in?

Today has been better than all the others, for sure. I never had any gas pains but the right side of my abdomen caused a lot of pain. I couldn't laugh, move around, etc. today that is even better. Still sore and can't cough but better. Getting in 48oz is the hardest thing for me. Most days I don't even make it to 30oz.

I feel full but what's worse is that I keep burping and getting a quick, sharpe pain. I think it's my sleeve saying it's had enough when I get that pain or start burping. I don't feel hungry but if I see or smell food I do think I sure would like to have some. Like you, I'm reminding myself why I did this and where I wanna be ????

I'm right there with you. I can't get that much in. I was told to get at least 48oz or I would need an IV. I don't wanna get dehydrated either but I just don't see getting in that much possible.

You are absolutely right! I can't wait to see the progress in a few weeks ????
