  1. We had similar starting weight!! Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  2. Congrats on your success so far !! How you are breezing down that scale that's amazing. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  3. When you move to dense protein you will feel restrictions. I was also meant to just eat three times a day. I manage it now. Also drink water when you think your hungry ..your doing the right thing stopping before feeling full your actually still healing so you may not feel full yet. I burp sneeze tummy gurgles that's what my signs were at first. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  4. Your doing great. Sometimes your body stalls to catch up from the shock of weightloss. If you can try to resist the urge to have more than ( what ever the amount is on your plan say 4/5 ounce) alot of people can fit in more they just chose not to. Your doing great. I don't count carbs as I'm not required to and it hasn't effected anything. Your breakfast sounds like it's been working up to now.. it also sounds like deep down you don't want to change it so perhaps try mixing it up in another area of your eating so you can keep your breakfast say cut carbs else we're if you want ?

  5. Some people don't But from what I've just read ( it's not about the weight loss but congrats) you for sure need to see a nutritionist. Googling won't help you get a plan suitable for your current needs. But it's upto you. I can't get in to see my dietician so she rings me sometimes. Maybe one could ring you or Skype Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  6. It went up in a day lol Come on..that's not fat. Probably just water weight. Our body fluctuates. If it makes you this crazy don't weigh everyday there really is no point. Once a week or once every two weeks will help you avoid noticing these things. Keep your fluid up it will go away Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  7. Are you going to let us know what your eating ? Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  8. Well. I was never told to chew a certain amount of time .so 3 months on I just chew normally Nothing gets stuck Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  9. Normal. Felt this way for about 2 months. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  10. If someone needs the ER they should go to the ER to be monitored not some other place with no doctor's. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  11. Why would you be dehydrated months in? Sounds bonkers to me. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  12. I wouldn't make assumptions.. just because she lost weight and doesn't eat much ..just because you have had it. I lost 50 lbs in three months a year ago by not eating and keto. I lost the same exact amount after wls 50 in 3 months. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  13. I never even thought about sucking in my tummy so I didn't know I wasn't able to do it ? But no issues four months post I just tried lol Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  14. So normal. I was dry heaving for 3 days and some puking. Congrats on your sleeve. Your sleeve loves you lol Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  15. But still go to your doctor so they are aware. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  16. I'm sorry but for some reason it happens. I didn't have a period for five years as on the depo injection.. now I keep getting a period Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  17. I'm sleeve. And told.no drinking 20 min after. Tried earlier once or twice. Forgetting the time. Causes burning feeling Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  18. 4 weeks is not enough space in my opinion if you will be in a hospital on your feet all day with paitents still on liquids/puree struggling to get your liquids in. It will be hard as it feels like a full time job and focus getting everything in. But I did my surgery over summer break. Going to class wouldn't be a problem after 2+ weeks but I'd really consider having a full 6 weeks off. If you have to be in a hospital setting. Just my opinion.
  19. You will be fine !! I was 244 at my heighest still fit in a normal seat. Enjoy your trip. Can I ask. I thought people don't do skin removal till at goal. Will you have to go in again? I'm 189 now. And even though my heighest wasnt super high I'm already really saggy so I think I might need some sort of fixing when I hit goal. Especially my tummy
  20. You can't expect any amount . Plus how can we estimate for you. We don't know your body. And even though you do we never know what it will do. Setting expectations can lead to feeling like you have failed. So as long as you stick to you plan focus on that. Everyone's start weight is different. I lost 50 lbs in 3 months. Some lose 15. You have surgery second of December and you don't know if you need vitamins ? Spin class - ask your actual doctor. Each has different rules.
  21. I do none. And my weight loss is moving at a good pace. Keep doing what you can. What do you eat daily ?
  22. Good luck op you will be fine. Congrats on your little one. Take each day as it comes and try and focus on dense protein . You haven't failed at all. I feel like these things are a lesson so we can figure out what we need to do to make it work you still have your tool. All the best!
  23. Bla bla bla. Not reading all that. Make all the assumptions you like. Who said it was smooth sailing.You don't have to experience what everyone's gone through to comment on a post lol get a grip. I'm not judging anyone. Anyway I can't take you seriously seen as everyone on the other post said everything you say is a lie and you crave drama. You won't get it of me lol keep talking I only read the first two lines. None of what your saying is making sense lol the op isn't a failure no one said she is. As I said people warned people about you so I'm not biting. How about you stop making posts about you and focus on the op lol. Your just trying to be a bully and it doesn't phase me . Counselling is good for everyone. Me.. op.. and for sure you. Wish for me to fail all you like lol
  24. I knew you'd come along with a problem. How about if what someone says you don't agree with you scroll past and write your own ? I see why people had issues with you now. I don't need a lesson from you. Were did I say it was easy ? I'm not even going to bother getting into it with you as I've seen you around. You can argue with a brick wall. I'm on this journey too and never did I call it easy. And you just contradicted your self "having your stomach removed isn't enough for people " erm.. that's what I said! So if having your stomach removed isn't enough for people having stuff rerouted thinking that will work isn't going to work either. It's the mind that makes it work all together. I stick by what I said. I won't be addressing you further so please feel free to put words in my mouth. When someone said this to me it worked for me. Luckily I wasn't talking to you so.. some people on here are like vultures .. jump onto anyone who doesn't say what they would say. I said we all make mistakes. And actually many people who couldn't do it before manage after with blips along the way. You don't like what I said. Fine. But I still stand by it. . People were saying all kinds of things about you on that other post and I felt bad for you.. hmm. Bye.
