    sleeverv reacted to Anna Nim in Anyone losing too much weight in your face? I am!   
    One thing I've noticed, is when you lose a lot of weight no matter what way there's a point where your face looks a little overly lean. I guess it like falls off their first? But, later when your weight stabilizes or you regain like 3 pounds it seems to fill out just fine. I've seen it again and again on my own Cycles up and down. So maybe give it some more time. Also, I'm not sure how long you had the extra weight on your body. But, often when we're older we lose the weight it shows what was underneath it. None of that's a bad thing it just is. Good luck!

    while I wouldn't mind loosing faster off the middle, or the hips, my face too has gotten thinner, faster. But - it reminds me of how I used to look in the face, so I'm quite pleased.
    if the wrinkles bother you try a retinol cream, and take salmon oil or fish oil and take Vitamin c daily. these will have a positive effect on your skin. I have been using these products for a long while and I have a hard time convincing people I am my age.

    sleeverv reacted to DFernandez718 in 6 weeks post op!   
    I got sleeved June 6th 2016. On surgery day I weighed in at 345 pounds! Today July 21st 2016 I currently weigh 288! So that's 57 pounds in 6 weeks! Not bad My surgeon was very surprised and happy with my results. But I told him I do 4 miles of cardio everyday! The surgery is great, but it's what you do after that really makes the difference! I hope you all are having a great weight loss journey! And for those in the process of getting it, I hope this gave you some motivation!

    sleeverv reacted to Inner Surfer Girl in Stalling Sooner Than 3 Weeks...   
    You have just had major surgery. You are swollen and full of IV fluids. You have not had time to have a stall.
    Your primary focus right now is healing.
    Until you are able to get in ALL of your fluids and Protein reliably, then it may be a very good idea to stay off the scale.
    You need to focus on healing, rest, Fluid, Protein, walking, taking your Vitamins and supplements, and being gentle with yourself.
    STAY OFF THE scale.< /p>
    The weight loss will come.

    Premier ready to drink shakes gives you 30 grams per carton. Also genopro flavorless Protein powder can be added to anything. I add it to Soups and it has 30 grams per scoop. It's been a lifesaver. I get about 90 grams of protein per day.

    Yes, I actually went in to see a nurse yesterday and they said it looks perfectly normal. Just part of the healing process.

    Yes. I obtained a new doctor and NUT and am starting the full liquid stage today and am on protein! Yay!!! At the grocery store shopping now. They both agreed that 5 weeks of no Protein is dangerous! Thanks for thinking of me!!!

    I actually have my surgery file. And I found a place where I can go in the states. I'm going to support group tomorrow with them. I actually started drinking Protein today at the advice of the new nutritionist. I had to do what was best for me.
