  2. I lost a ton of hair! I didn’t think it was going to stop but it did eventually. Months 4-9 were rough but I didn’t go bald! And you won’t either!
  3. Probably 400-600 calories. I'm 5 months out now and averaging 1000-1200.

  7. Hi! I was sleeved on 2/15/17 and have lost 62lbs since surgery and a total of 74 since I started my journey!
  8. Yes! Very common. I talked to my doctor about it at then time... he said liquid going in, liquid coming out. Ew. Hang in there, it will pass. lol

  15. Have you reached out to your doctor? Something doesn't sound right. I'm have some similar issues, I'm 10 weeks out. I recommend colace if you're having constipation issues. I hope things start working soon!
  16. I know I need to make this much more of a focus. I'm finding it difficult to get the fluid in and the food in. Still figuring it out I guess.
  17. I find it hard to get water (or any liquid) in. What should my goal be? Almost 11 weeks out. I'm probably averaging 32oz. Is that enough to keep dehydration away? I was admitted to the hospital once already for dehydration and would really like to avoid that again.

  22. Not mean at all!! It IS an amazing tool. I'm just ready for the next stage. Because of all the back and forth in the hospital I think my stomach is weeks behind. Thanks for all your help!
  23. Oh I don't want to eat eat eat, I just want to be I don't know more normal.
  24. I have a portal vein blood clot and just got over a nasty throat infection. Thanks, glad to hear. I think my stomach is just behind.
  25. I've had a couple or complications but now I'm back on track, my issue is I can't eat! I'm 6.5 weeks out and can eat 2oz of yogurt, or 1.5oz of chicken salad, or 1 slice of deli meat. At what point should I expect to eat a somewhat reduced regular diet?

  28. I've been in to see them twice.. no leaks, no inflammation, nothing. Just nausea. Their cure is to wait it out..
  29. Has this happened to anyone else? When did it subside? I'm (no exaggerating) am nauseous 24/7, having a hard time getting liquids and food in, nothing sounds appetizing. I've been the the ER twice for pain and dehydration and have had every test in the book. There is nothing wrong. I'm miserable. Is this going to be my new life? HELP
