Dehydration?
Sounds exactly like dehydration. Of course talk to your dr. But in the meantime, sip sip sip.

Need some help or something!
It just isn't moving like I thought. Surgery weight 266, current weight 237, almost 30lbs, about a week out from 3 months. It's going so slow ?. So I've recently upped my water and my cardio (doing 40 min a day 5 times a week) eating less than 800 a day, usually around 700, sometimes give or take. Always less than 25 net carbs for the day. I've only lost 3 lbs this month. Any advice? I'm really eating pretty right, 90% protein the rest veggies, yogurt, string cheese, making good choices. Maybe calories need to go back to 500?

To sleeve or not to sleeve
Getting the sleeve was the best decision I've made in my life. And I'm only 6 weeks out from surgery. Down 26lbs. It was the easiest recovery I have ever had from a surgery. But I followed all the directions to a T that I received from my surgeon.

It's going slow
Hi all, sleeved in March 3, so it's been 3 weeks. I've lost a total of 16lbs. I'm trying to be happy about it, but honestly, I thought it would go quicker. I'm measuring my food, sticking to 2 premier shakes a day, sticking to lean proteins, measuring my 1.5 oz servings. Drinking my water. I lost 9 lbs the first week, 4 lbs the second, and 3 lbs the third week. I'm averaging between 60 and 70 grams of protein and about 600 to 650 calories a day. I think my calories are too high. Suggestions?

Diarrhea on liquid diet 7 days post op
I had it every day like you while I was on the liquid phase. As soon as I started the soft foods (14 days out after surgery) it went away just as fast as it came. Hang in there!! It goes away!

Hair loss
I haven't had any hair loss yet (sleeved 3/6) but that said, I'm a hairdresser with several clients who had weight loss surgery, who had hairloss. So I know it's coming. The good news it's temporary. Give it 4 months, it will come back!

Feeling Full?
Feeling full is so different to me now. I can't tell if I'm full, lol. So today is day 1 of soft foods for me (cottage cheese, string cheese, eggs, etc). Tonight I had for dinner 1/4 cup cottage cheese and 2 slices of a peach (cut up into triangles). Feeling full is so different. It doesn't feel like it used to. I don't even know if I'm full, but I got a weird pain in my sternum close to being done, so I stopped. I think this is my new full? Anyone else think it feels different after the sleeve?

Day 4, things seem so easy, now I'm worried
Today is day 4, so I got to start on my protein shakes and soups. Today was so much easier compared to say 1, every day has gotten better and better. It sounds silly but now I'm worried it will be too easy and not work. Has anyone else felt this way?

Tomorrow is the day!!
Sleeve done 3/3. Things are definitely easier today than they were on day 1. Now I'm worried that it's not going to work because it's been a pretty good day today and things seem easy. This whole thing is such a head trip!

Tomorrow is the day!!
It's hard to sleep when so many different thoughts. I cleaned my house instead, cleaned my car, made sure all my prep is done. I'm ready, let's do this!!.. it's funny, this week every time I wore something i told myself, this will be the last time i wear these Jean's, etc. So excited!
