Did the sensation finally go away,on its own?

Yes my nurse as well has told me to stop weighing myself! It will absolutely drive you crazy. My nurse told me I cant start working out really at the gym till like 6 weeks post op. So I cant wait! 38 pounds down. 140 more to go haha 🤗🤗

Oh my lord I cant wait till the day I can cross my legs! Im so proud of you love. Thank you for your kind and encouraging words its a breath of fresh air! 🤗🤗

Hey darling congrats on your progress so far! I heard its a tad harder losing the weight when you have a pre existing health condition related to obesity. Hopefully thats not the case for you.

Becoming an adult was one of the dumbest things I ever did but having RnY surgery was one of the smartest. And in the long run I believe the second will benefit me more!

For a while at the beginning of my weight loss journey . I was weighing myself everyday , 2-3 times a day. I was out of control! I've since gotten myself together and weigh myself once a week. I don't want the scale to be the only indicator of my weight loss. I've always exercised, so I see a huge difference in my clothing sizes. My body shape has changed for the better with the combination of weight loss and exercise.

Congratulations on starting your journey! 20 pounds in a month is a huge number! Trust me a year from now you will miss these days. Enjoy working out! You got this ‍♀️‍♀️‍♀️‍♀️

Maybe it's just your germ resistance was down and the natural skin flora attacked you, maybe a minute skin hole, once it got in , it was " Hello Sailor" and you were reaping the whirlwind, don't know if there is a difinative answer for it all!

I can see it in my face already at one month post-op and I'm already down a clothing size even though I'm only down 16 lbs on the scale.

It probably took me about 6 months to personally notice. Looking back I know I missed all of the little changes. I will never forget calling my husband in tears because I was crossing my legs without even noticing! It seems so small but it was huge. I still keep some old clothes around for days I need a reminder of just how far I've come. Remember to enjoy the small victories like walking up a flight of stairs without pain. A year from now you will be a whole new person! You got this!

Please keep us updated, I had my first cystic acne flare right after my first baby and it return when I least wanted it. I haven't had any since my surgery but I'm sure it's waiting in the wings, maybe when I meet with my congressman or another inconvenient time. And yes I do know my congressman, no big whoop, he's not even a chairman of any commited. Just just a waste of space individual like many others.

Ugh. I saw this video of this girl on youtube. She was saying post-op how shes been breaking out with lots of acne. But all the youtubers were commenting underneath saying no thats not true bla bla bla. So I was not worried much about it. This past week I have been having breakouts all over my forhead and my chin and sides. And I am someone who has never ever suffered acne!!! Has anything similiar happened to you guys?

I’m almost 6 weeks post op, down 23 pounds and the only difference I see is in my face. Clothes still fit the same as well. It’s a tad discouraging but I am doing what I’m supposed to and I know in time I’ll see results. Haven’t been able to work out due to pain but that’s under control so I’m getting back to the gym today. Best of luck!

Laughing with tears of joy here on your behalf💦, may you keep on to victory, I believe you truly can do it!

So, I FELT my first results during the pre-op liquid diet. The lack of carbs made a tremendous difference in the inflammation in my body - after losing 5 lbs, I felt better than when I'd lost 40 in the past. It was eye opening!
From my HW of 280, I saw a difference when I recorded a video of me on surgery day at 259 - and I see a really big difference now that I'm at 239. Now I was in the 230s back in 2017 so I'm not totally ecstatic yet - but when I get into the 220s I might just die of happiness! 😊

Lets melt those pounds away!!! I cant wait to see the end reaults 🙂🙂

Same here girl haha. My husband tells me my pajamas are falling off of me and I am like really? Haha 🤗

Yes that is pretty much all I could tolerate at week 3 is sugar free pudding haha 🤗🤗

We had the same surgery on the same day. I'm so used to losing weight at a slow pace that I'm blown away by the immediate weight loss after my surgery. In my mind, I should go through a healing process for about a month and then start slowly loosing. I grabbed some pants that I haven't wore in about 6 months yesterday and threw them on and went to work only to realize that they look pretty stupid and won't stay up on their own anymore. LOL I think if we're doing it right, we will retain muscle at certain points which weighs more than fat and lose size. You will be shrinking and not see it on the scale. The proof is in my pants I had to hold up all day yesterday.

Yes we are the hardest on ourselves. I only see it when I put the old clothes on and my husband will say those pants are way to big on you. I even had to go find a BELT. LOL

I have taken pictures weekly since coming home from surgery. That is how i have been tracking.
But it is true. We are hard on ourselves.
