  2. Awesome Awesome Awesome ‼️‼️‼️???????? That is so exciting. Keep up the great work!
  3. I'm doing pretty good. I will be 4 weeks post-op on Friday and have lost about 34 pounds since the start of my pre-op diet. Close to 6 lbs a week so far. I'm still struggling to get enough liquids, Protein, and calories. I'm hovering around 450 calories per day. Your weight loss is amazing! Keep up the good work!! ????????
  4. would be good to speak with a doctor.drink lots of fluids, walk as often as you can but dont pressure yourself and stop if you have pain. try to breath deeply.

  6. I seem to be doing worse. I did so good the first few days and now that I am 9 days post op I am in pain and nauseous. Not sure why this is happening.
  7. Steph,Please add me to the spreadsheet. I joined over 2 weeks ago. Sorry, you're added now! I went on vacation right after you joined and never had a chance to add you. Sorry for the delay! Thanks so much Steph! ???? Congratulations on your news!!! ????????
  8. Pass that stone! Pass that stone! Pass that stone! Pass that stone! Pass that stone! Pass that stone! Trying to cheer it on out! Hehe
  9. Anyone from MX contacted you yet? Seems they are in hiding. Nope. I was so excited about how well they treated me and guess they are mad at me for leaving a day early? It really hurts my heart.

  11. Hi! I am one week post-op today and think I did great at losing over 7 lbs! Current weight is 281.4. ????
  12. Way to go! These pictures are such an inspiration! I was sleeved 12/7 also in Tijuana, MX by Dr. Carlos Altamirano.
  13. Wow! What an inspiration you are! Congrats!! You look Awesome!!!! ????
  14. Hi. I am 6 days post op. I also suffer from PCOS. I can handle the missed periods but the facial hair drives me bonkers!! I have to shave under my chin daily. Soooo embarrassing! My husband knows about it but we don't talk about it cause it is so embarrassing. I also had laser treatments. Was told that it would take about 9 treatments to rid my face of the hair. 12 sessions later nothing had changed. I spoke with the owner who told me that most treatments don't work on those with PCOS. I was furious! I told them before I paid them 2k that I had PCOS. So now they wanted more money but couldn't guarantee results. I tried to get my money back but to no avail. I really hope that at the least my facial hair will grow slower and not as much as I lose weight and get close to my goal weight. Good luck to all of you Ladies ????????
  15. Thank you both so much for your concern. I really appreciate it. I still haven't passed the stone, but thankfully I have good meds to help control the pain. Awww! That's so sweet @@HopeandAgony!!!! I'll second that!!!
  16. Of course you can. Give us an update on your sleeve journey.
  17. I did a low carb/sugar diet that was mostly liquids. I did this for two weeks. Liquids all day until dinner when I had a salad with protein in it or protein and maybe a cup of a steamed vegetable. My fluids were a mix of water, crystal light, and protein shakes. Then I did a full clear liquid the last 23 hours. My doctor said my liver looked great and it was a clean easy surgery!!!
  18. I did a lot of walking today and feeling the pain tonight ????
  19. I am doing okay. I have great hours and not so great hours. I still need aome OTC meds. I am not doing good with fluids. I have to do better. Tomorrow is a new day and a new week so I am going to put my best foot forward!
  20. I really like the Unjury protein powder Chicken Soup Flavor and the Pantry Selections Cream of Chicken. I will do some store bought ones sometimes but they don't have the protein.
  21. I honestly haven't craved anything. I am not hungry at all. Apple juice is the only thing I want. Crazy. I am having a hard time getting my calories because of this. I am trying with broth and protein drinks and I like them but don't love them. It is crazy.
