  1. So I started at 284 on Sept. 19 now I'm 216 and cannot seem to go anywhere? Any suggestions on moving forward with my weight? Thanks!
  2. Ever since the surgery I feel like my mouth is dryer than before. I try to stay hydrated but I always feel thirsty. My surgery was Sept. 19th. So it's been like 5 months. No matter how much water I drink I still feel thirsty. I admit I could probably be drinking more water but I still feel like this isn't normal. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  3. I'm 4 months out and I feel like I rarely go #2. Lately it's been getting worse. I'm talking once a week if not worse. I'll have really bad gas but no BM. Then when I do finally BM it's just mostly liquid and never solid. However I eat solid foods all the time so it's not like all I consume is liquid. What am I doing wrong? Or what is happening Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  4. Best decision of my life to get this surgery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  5. I am starting to get discouraged about losing weight. It's been 2 months since my surgery and I feel like this process is taking forever even though I know it's not. I started at 284 and I am now 244. I just feel like that isn't a lot of weight. I am so ready to be below 200 already. Sorry I had to vent. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  9. I'm pretty positive I'm experiencing ketosis. I have a bad taste in the back of my throat most of the time. I know ketosis is when you're burning a lot of fat, however I don't see a change in my weight. Maybe I'm not eating enough? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  13. Well the thing is I had a 8 day period then a week later am having this 13 day period. So I've been losing a lot of blood. I already have to take Iron though. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  14. How long did yours last? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  15. My surgery was 26 days ago. I've had a 13 day period and there's no sign of it ending soon. Should I be worried? This is ridiculous I've never experienced this before. I'm taking Iron so I don't become anemic. I feel like it'll never end! Also it's Saturday so my obgyn isn't even open. I have to deal with this for the weekend not knowing what could be happening to me. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  18. Yes I would walk a mile on the treadmill by day 6 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  19. I'm on my period and made a huge mistake. I have bad cramps. I went into my purse thinking it was Tylenol and just stuck a naproxen in my mouth a swallowed it. I feel really stupid. Am I going to be ok? It's been 24 days since my surgery so almost a month. Also it's 5am so I can't call the doctors office yet. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  20. I weighed myself 6 days after surgery and did it everyday even though I know you're not suppose to. I just liked watching my results it made me happy. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  21. Yes very normal. Walk walk walk. I knowww it's so hard and annoying to get up but just do it. Even for 5 minutes. Move that body. It'll go away. That's the cure! Lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  22. I had chicken noodle soup and it was fine. Just chew the noodles and meat. It wasn't bad at all. Yes you still need Protein cause it's not enough but no problem having some soup! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  23. After 10 days I would be worried, at least that's what my doctor said. My first bowel movement was not pretty, so just be prepared for that. Make sure you walk of course too. But then I would take Miralax. Put it in whatever you like. Miralax is good! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  24. Also can I ever eat Pasta again? Lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  25. Wow well I'll never do it again. It was so easy to eat! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
