VSG on 11/7/17 and i lost 60 something since surgery 75 since highest weight recorded at surgeons office, and almost 100 since my highest weight ever I had no clue how it would go, just glad its gone

Not the same but i backpacked Europe 4 months post op. You may be too new for alcohol but ask your surgeon. I would focus more on cooking your own meals, carrying as little as possible, avoiding getting hit im the abdomen at the club and testing new foods out privately near a bathroom. Enjoy Prague!

Im also 6 months post op and im noticing that the shape you have prior to surgery is the shape you will have after just much smaller (generally) then the resculpting occurs in the gym and this is hard and takes alot of time and effort. Or plastics. Dont get discouraged you can do it!

I did tons of research on telogen effluvium and hairloss regrowth and this one was promising , im not out of the woods yet but im hopeful that this is helping minimize loss (and prayer) so i tell everyone i can.

I just realized my original comment was not clear... I use LLsyine an amino acid supplement and so far minimal hair loss im 6 months post op

dont want to worry you but most people report loss starting 3 months out. Only a few lose immediately idk why and even fewer can claim no loss at all.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE everyone google the research on LLysine I've put it in every thread about hair loss I could I have been taking it from the start and so far minimal hair loss (plus vitamin and protein levels all good) Don't know if this is what is doing it for sure or genetics or the combination but ...

Nope I wish the offered the DS in my area I would have done that instead (but not the RNY) Love the sleeve

I just realized no longer have to worry about accidentally collapsing my ladder under my weight. I bought it without knowing the weight limit until I got it home and was taking the risks every time I used it.

Use whichever oil you chose while showering. This will lock in the moisture.

Keto style diet drops weight quickly before surgery But balance is best long term

Starting a SHTF thread It's all fun and games until ... You see your RD & NUT in the same room and they tell you you HAVE to weigh yourself weekly. HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

A lot of my travel mates recommend prebiotic and probiotics before street food in Asia HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

your fears are normal and while everyone is different at 6 months out I : Look 15 years younger lol Always locate bathrooms when first entering restaurants now because i did have a minor emergency once and i want to be prepared from now on Im actually afraid of getting food poisoning and then adversion to something i eat routinely like yogurt

Parmesan chips or a protein cookie

Try drinking something a little more substantial than water like unsweetened iced tea, hot tea, etc. HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

You are going to have that post surgery glow baby, all the toxins out of your system you are going to look like a new person promise no one will be able to keep their eyes off of you in a good way , food will not be the focus , so live it up and happy pre surgery and pre birthday !!!!

Thanks everyone You guys are so helpful and honest I really appreciate it I now know that I REALLY need to decide on my lowest weight so I can bounce up comfortably , I like contingency planning How does someone find out what their lowest possible weight can be (I saw something about bone density and such) ? BMI chart just does not seem super accurate ... Like most one size fits all things HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

Incremental goals sound reasonable as well ! HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

This is some really great info thanks ! HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]

I hear it works but will depend on many factors How far out you are from surgery, if you actually have more weight to lose vs skin, etc HW270 SW238 CW176 VSG11/7/17 [emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956][emoji956]
