  1. What are the signs of a stretched pouch? Are there anyone out there feel like their pouch is stretched and if so how many weeks or months out?
  2. I've seen the terms "resetting the pouch" can someone tell me what that means and how does that work?
  3. Please share with me and others your 5 mo status in terms of weight loss and eating habit. I'm currently at 210 lbs from 267 lbs pre surgery. I would like to know if you think I'M on schedule. I would like your responses.
  4. I am exercising at a reasonable pace but my stomach and back will not bulge. Is anyone going through this or have any suggestions? I am frustrated at this point.

    Exercise Woes...Anybody with me?

    I just left my surgeon's office for my second post op visit since my surgery on Dec. 7th of last year. One of the topic of discuss was exercise. He stressed that's a component in the weight loss journey. I too have not started exercising and have stalled in my weight loss. I will start soon. I hope this helps.

    Tolerating Shakes

    I've gotten where I cannot tolerate shakes that are require at least twice a day in addition to my puree foods. Does anyone have this problem? Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Oh by the way they make me nauseous and I feel literally ill after drinking one. All shakes.

    Loosing a lot of my hair

    I've started to lose my hair at 7 and a half weeks. I am becoming depressed because I had to go through this before in the past. I had to resort to wearing hot uncomfortable wigs. Please tell me that I will not lose every strand of my hair. Those who have experienced this already.

    Good question? My insulin intake is being tweeked since having gastric bypass. My endocrinologist is talking about changing my insulin to something else. I'll be sure to keep you posted If I notice a change in my weight loss or stall progress.
