    Before and After Pics

    4 yrs later, I feel great. My start weight was *243, went down to 137 which fluctuates about 5 to 10lbs at most. Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile app

  3. Thanks sometimes we need to hear this from someone else going through the same thing.
  4. Started out at 138 lost 10 lbs during preop phase. Weighed 227 day of surgery and now weigh 173 lbs. Lost 54 lBS since surgery on November 17th. My last progress pic was about 2 months ago so I'm a little smaller now. My kids are very proud of me and my daughter (15 yrs old) has been a little inspired and is also trying to eat healthier as she is like me with slower metabolism and gains weight easily, while my husband and son(18yrs old) can eat anything and remain skinny. My husband still buys me chocolates and my son throws them away and reminds him of how far I've come. They try to be as supportive as possible, I'm lucky in that aspect. My happiest moment was being in old navy with my son trying on a size 14 and after being an 18/20 and the 14 was too big so my son suggested a size 12. I was nervous and after trying them on and showing my son he asked me if I was crying. It was an emotional moment for me. My weight loss has been slow as I hit a stall for several weeks now but im trying not to lose moral and take it one day at a time and look at the positive rather than the negative. Any advice on this stall is so welcome

    Weight loss at 4 Months

    This was so helpful and encouraging. I am 5 months out and down 54 lbs. I was feeling really discouraged. Especially after seeing my surgeon and being told to go vegan to which my nutritionist responded he was crazy. I am at a stall for about 3 weeks now and was losing hope.

    Cookies!

    I've had cravings for combos and I did have a few. I am definitely not doing that again I felt so guilty after. Either way it is comforting to have people outside of home I can relate to and get back on track... Sent from my SM-T550 using the BariatricPal App
  7. I check ever day as well, it's a bad habit. I really need to put mine away. I recently hit a stall and it's even more frustrating. Sent from my SM-T550 using the BariatricPal App
  8. Sleeved Nov 17th, SW 235 went down to 227 after pre- op diet/ before surgery and right now I am 191 post- op. I hit a still for 3 weeks now and I'm a little discouraged to be honest... Trying to stay positive. Sent from my SM-T550 using the BariatricPal App

    Feeling weak!

    Almost 2 weeks post op and feeling nauseous and vomiting for 2 days now. My protein shakes make me feel even worse. Called my surgeon today and was told to go to the ER...

    One month post op problems

    I'm going through the same thing, I can't keep anything down, I'm weak and my protein shakes make me even more nauseous... My surgeons office suggested I go to their ER today to get fluids through IV.

    Surgery Day!

    Everything went well, thanks everyone! Just trying to make sure I get enough liquids at this point day 4 post op and so far I could only stomach a protein shake this morning, water makes me nauseous, going to try some chicken broth...

    3 Days Post Op

    Thank you so much for the advice, definitley appreciate it. Did you by any chance take any antiacid? My discharge paperwork said I should've received a prescription but I never got one.
  13. I am 3 days post op. I don't miss the food and I am struggling to even drink the protein and liquids. I feel bloated and hope to feel comfortable at some point, I don't want to end up in the hospital dehydrated.
