  1. Congratulations on your weight loss!! I have lost a total of 36 lbs. I’ve been stalled on for the past 2 1/2 weeks.. any suggestions in breaking the cycle? sleeved 2/26/18 hw 272 cw 236 gw 165
  2. Scary, just the thought of going under the knife again... glad you’re doing well!
  3. I’m 6 weeks post op and still haven’t hit the gym, how do you find the energy, I’m still trying to adjust.. struggles real
  4. I was told to wait whether I’m drinking water, eating a meal or a snack.. that I should wait an hour in between.. does that sound just about right for y’all?
  5. I too was sleeved 2/26, I’ve lost 22 lbs and I’m happy with the results so far, still on soft Until I’m ready for the next phase.
  6. I tried a few flavors, not a big fan.. ?
  7. I’ve been at a stall, I’m having a challenging time trying to meet the well the water requirements and so I have hit a wall and since last Friday I’ve haven’t lost any more weight it’s been at a stall just wait for my body to catch up, Anybody out there in the same situation as I am and has surpassed this ordeal LOL
  8. I’m at a stall too for the passed 1 week, I was sleeved on 2/26 and had lost 10 lbs at my post op visit on the 3/9 but the scale hasn’t budged..
  9. Amazing!! You go girl, keep it up the wait will eventually come off and congrats to the new baby.
  10. My doctor did not recommend it either, every doctor is different. My surgery went well, I was sleeved 2/26
  11. Thanks, will try it.. what app are you using?
  12. Which app are you using would like to know?
  13. Can I ask you how you get that much protein and I’m struggling here I’m barely putting in 35 to 40 of protein and water at the same time I was sleeved 2/26 what about you any advice would help thanks
  14. Well my doctor said I could start soft foods however I am not tolerating them well at all so I do purée for the most part. I I don’t think I’m ready for apps off foods, how are you doing? Glad you contacted me it’s nice to know there’s somebody out there that Had surgery the same day as I did.
  15. Hi there, I was sleeved on February 26 and I’ve only lost 10 pounds since then I’m wondering if I’m doing this right. I am currently on soft foods and don’t really meet my calorie intake at all, anybody have any suggestions or anything I could help me pass this stall I’m having? thank you
  16. Hi, my doctor cancelled my surgery date and had schedule a month later, it was cancelled because I had flu symptoms, and they did not want anything interfering with the anesthesia. Anyhow good luck tomorrow and keep us posted. ??
  17. Same here, I’m 12 days post op and chew on food then spit it out.. lol it’s extremely challenging.. I also went to the doctors today and lost 10 lbs, he’s moved me on to phase 3, progress.
  18. Hi all, I had the surgery 2/26, and finally pooped on Saturday, what a relief ... bloating and gas has decreased. A little swelling around the midsection and mild pain is lesser. I’m still on my clear:full diet, I sip all day long, although today was a bit challenging to do so.. I did try unconsciously to sip on broth and beverage at the same sit down.. immediately I felt a pain.. at the stages of knowing right now, good luck and congratulations on the decision ??
  19. I got sleeved 2/26, I too have right midsection pain, and I haven’t pooped in since Monday, sounds like your coming along as mostly expected. Definitely walk when you get a chance, it helps. Have you had any problems pooping?
  20. Hi all, I got sleeved 2/26, anyone experience right midsection pain around the incision, still dealing with pain and discomfort around this area. Anyhow, 6 days post op and I also haven’t pooped in 5 days, any advice is appreciated. Date of surgery 272 CW 269 GW 160
  21. Thanks for the advice. I also was sleeved 2/26/18, I also had a hiatal hernia repair. I’ve had challenges recovering, such as soreness on my right section, how are you coming along in your recovery?
  22. I had a a hernia repair as well as the vsg, on the 26th of February, my doctor advised me that I would feel a tightening feeling. Pace yourself, I follow a meal plan and sip on water through the day to stay hydrated. I’m recovering well, however my liver is sore from the retraction. I wonder if anyone felt this sore? My post op appointment is scheduled for next Friday. Looking forward to the next phase[emoji39]
