Haha yes ma'am! Oh my gosh I'm so excited for buying new clothes, feeling more active, feeling light, being less in pain. I've already started to see some awesome changes like my blood sugar and pressure have been amazing (main reasons I got the surgery) ohhhh and to finally get off all my meds will be awesome!

OK that makes sense thank you.

Ahhh you all look fabulous!!!! I'm only 3 weeks since my surgery but I've been trying to push my best friend to lose weight with me so we can go bathing suit shopping together. Keeping my fingers crossed for both of us!

THAT is AMAZING! The med thing is a HUGE plus! So happy for you!
I have so many plans for 2020! It's going to be a beautiful year.

How are you feeling!
What's been the toughest part so far

@dena81
Shoot chicka chicka start ta talking!
I am excited for you and me (LOL)
What are you looking forward to when you get to your goal weight?

I just joined recently (sleeved October 18th) but I noticed the same. I've gotten some replies on my posts but it's been quiet and since I just had my sleeve I'm just full of stuff I want to talk about.

I loathe that kind of gain, because most of my bariatric Dr. an appointments are around my cycle for whatever reason.

I'm currently a HH so it's hard for me to get regular bras. Right now I have to amazing sports bra that I finally got to tighten to the last clip on the back!!! Can't wait until I finally get to shop new bras!

@GreenTealael @FluffyChix ok ladies. Here ya go.

Don't stress! Its common. The next week you probably will see a loss that corresponds with the gain you had!

My doctor had me on Clear Liquids 3 days post op and then full liquids for a week then puree

Lol @mdhender87 don’t read the post-op boards before your surgery 😂 At least, I’m glad I didn’t or I would’ve questioned the choice. Despite the struggles, I definitely don’t regret it. As hard as it is, it’s better than the path we were doing down. Good luck with your surgery and recovery!

I got the B12 that dissolves on the tongue
found them half price stocked up!!!

@Mrs. Mercedes
B12 chewables ARE YOUR ARE YOUR FRIENDS AS FAR AS ENERGY THEY HAVE HELPED ME ALOT

That's how I felt, I'm still up and down..I had an infection In one of the incisions..but its trial and a big adjustment..the shakes became too sweet for me..

Hang in there! I am 7 weeks out and my stomach still feels like it is asking to eat, but I have learned to ignore it because I know it is constantly active/churning still. I eat when I think I should eat and ignore it the rest of the time! It isn't to bad, just a constant something going on down there lol

i promise it does get better guys the first 3 months where a b***h after that it does get better keep up the good work everyone its a great big life change for us all stick to it it does work and yes it does hurt sometimes learning to eat is fun as well

I had RNY on Oct 1st and this is no joke. Ended up back in the hospital once. It's such a trial an error to figure out how much to drink how fast...etc..... 2 oz of meat in my baby measuring cup looks like nothing I want to use a kitchen scale but my plan says DO NOT use the scale only a measuring cup....I feel like I'm eating nothing. I'm so tired, I can't do much more than walk for exercise.... One of my belly button incisions looks weird....random pains sometimes...

So my surgery was on the 18th and I'm currently in my full liquids phase (puree is on the 1st!) It no longer hurts as food goes down but I'm still trying to adjust to timing with eating and I feel starving at times. Hoping I get adjusted to that eventually.

You guys are so great! Surgery went well. I got some aches but nothing insane. So far no vomiting. Happy I'm starting my new life!!!!!

Ohhhh that's so awesome! I'll message you. Great to see another Monmouth county person

This is day 2 after the surgery. I'm home but now really feeling the pain and keeping up on my Tylenol 3 every 6 hours. Eating has been a big learning curve. Still trying to remember if I use a spoon to pace every 5 minutes and for the medicine cup every 15 minutes. Just hoping this pain in my back and at the incisions go away soon.
