  2. I gave in & ended up sick????????
  3. Yeah it was so strange… i was soooooooooo hungry. And then i unintentionally made myself sixk
  4. Lol i wish. Im only 29. Got a long way to go
  5. I legit ate too much yesterday… because my body would be full one minute and legit hungry an hr later. I threw up and had loose stool this morning???. I have to be careful
  6. curious. This is my 3rd menstruation since my surgery and .. i am ALWAYS HUNGRY. Like ive been eating more than usual and im always hungry on this period. Is this normal? Lol
  7. I am officially 9lbs away from my goal!!!!!!!!! I have not been 160 since middle school. This really made my day! 160 is my goal weight though i think ill probably go to 150. Either way, to see this on the scale really blew me away
  8. So basically, he said last month i was 181 and now im 171. He told me how amazing im doing and now im cleared for fruits and salads!! He assured me that i’d be at my goal weight by next month! Im very happy and smiling more. Today was also my first day at the gym!! Everything is getting better and im happy. (Some acid reflux irritating my throat but i got new meds for it so yup! All smiles)?
  9. Hey family! Maybe i have to do better with my protein intake — or this is just a normal life occurence. Either way it was beyond brutal and scary and i pray i never have to experience it again.
  10. Soooooo is it possible that with the weight change that our immune system slows down or loses effectiveness? I had an ingrown hair near my groin. Ive had them before but THIS?! It turned into an abnormally LARGE abcess within the matter of days. I went to the er. The doctors were in shock & asked me how i was managing. Anyway a nurse had to hold me as they lanced it. I screamed & cried. I also now have a weird irritation in my throat. Doctor said its probably due to the rapid weight change ?‍?
  11. Yes!!!!!!!!!!! I thought it was just me. I actually had a ingrown hair that grew abnormally large — i had to get it lanced .. it was brutal
  12. Ive seen many talking about hair loss. Mine has grown!!! I hope it doesnt !!
  13. I dont have a cold nor a sore throat but this is the second time i feel like something is in my throat like a lump. Its annoying
  14. So, recently i’ve been having an off and on relationship with “super sadness” since the surgery. My therapist told me that she has had many clients who has gone through the same emotional changes & that it’s completely normal. I’m typically a happy go lucky person so … this (on top of my menstrual hormonal emotions??) it’s been alot. But i cope with journaling, prayer, sitting by the water, and soon the gym. How have you guys navigated or navigated this time?
  15. Im really trying! Its an everyday battle lol but thank you! Im so grateful for this community!
  16. Tbis is so encouraging ! You have no idea! Thank you so much??

  19. I am unbelievably inspired!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow
  20. Legit hated it! My weight would go up 3lbs & then back down. I was sad & resolved that if i wanted to keep losing not to eat ( which is obviously not wise). But it was discouraging
