  1. I used to go to support page by month or location on app but I can’t seem to find it can someone please help me
  2. Finally I’ve finally attached pictures around a year between. I’ve been taking a few small bites of stuff I shouldn’t have not much but enough to bother me. I am down to 251 almost 150 lbs since surgery in April. First of November I finally started having gall bladder issues and had to have it removed. Now the gas and bowel movements have been terrible. I went from trouble going to bathroom to going all the time. I measure every meal to around a cup 3 meals a day and no real snacking. Since gallbladder surgery I have started to drink 150 oz of water a day. I also weigh every morning and night. I want to start exercising but I have not done that yet. How is every one else doing.
  3. I was told by my surgeon to take stool softeners every day. I do not want my body to depend on them as they are starting to to lose there effectiveness and I’m struggling to go to the bathroom. Not sure what to do any advice is needed.

    Extra / Loose Skin

    Here is my opinion I was 398 the day of surgery April 6 today I’m around 270. I have loose skin especially my back. I have to re adjust when I lay down. But what I tell people. Would you rather be fat and die younger or have extra skin and live longer

    Need some advice I’m in some pain

    No no fever I took some acid medicine the dr prescribed after surgery. Got a call into the surgeon to see
  7. For the second time in 3 weeks I was awaken with pain on my left side under my ribs and radiating to my back. Only on my left side. I know gallbladder is on right side I feel like it is acid. It since I’ve never had acid I’m not sure. I’m only comfortable sitting up when this has happened. I’m 7 months post op and Down 125 so if anyone has any advice or have experience in this.
  8. I’m down 120 since surgery I’m down to what I was during college and high school. The weight loss is much slower now but it comes in spurts. I can wear a 2x shirt and a 44 pant. Today was the first day I stuffed myself and I’m hurting. We had sautéed mushrooms and I should not have. I’m still around a cup of food each meal dinner is usually a cup and a half I need to cut that back. But tonight may have been a wake up call.

    Now I'm mad

    2 weeks ago everything was going great I got to 303 and ever since then I have been stuck. I have not added any extra food or anything but I'm getting mad. I'm 5 to 6 lbs from 100lbs since surgery and I'm getting ticked. Any advice would be appreciated.
  10. Been a while since I've been here. But I am nearly 4 months out I'm down 90 since surgery on april 6th and 126 overall. Some bowl movement problems. I'm hoping to be down the full 100 by next week. So I've got to push it a little.

    Any April sleevers

    I know everyone says don't worry about scale. But I keep up with today I have been sleeved since April 6th and I'm down 41. I measure all food to a cup since I have felt no restrictions I can now have soft vegetables instead of mashed. Only issues is my back and shoulders are hurting which I attribute to atrophy of the muscles since I haven't worked out or lifted much in my upper body since surgery

    Quick question to guys about stalling

    When I say deli meat it's reduced sodium. And it's only been two pieces. Also i have no soreness since I got home. I actually had maybe 2 oz of tilapia grilled today. Water hasn't been a problem either. And never was nauseated.
  13. Just a quick question had surgery April 6 Lost nearly 30lbs in a week and a half. Since Saturday I haven't lost anything actually gained 3lbs. I know that isn't much but I would love to start losing again. My Dr put me on soft foods so yesterday I had my protein shake, and deli meat for snack and flounder for dinner. Very small portions less 650 calories for whole day. I can't wrap my mind around weight not coming down with so few calories and exercise. On day of surgery I was 398 this morning 373.4. Up from 370 Monday. Has anyone else experienced this.
