yep, it is normal, but things will go back to normal on the 4-5th week. it is a bit difficult, just be patient. you'll like the results and it'll all be worth it.

hi, yes it's normal and you will be able to feel normal again....just give it time.....usually everything's back to normal after the 5th week. take care.

greatttt that's just good news!!! wish you the best of luck.....please keep us posted.........congrats.:thumbdown:

yep, it is a strange feeling.......but it'll go away in about 10 days or so.....take care and please keep us posted.:thumbdown:

mmm i wouldn't know exactly but why don't you give Nina a call she's the patient coordinator for Dr. Aceves in Mexicali....i'm sure she'll answer your doubts. (619) 9179028 - please keep me posted.

you're definitely right.....we need to keep our diet and watch what we eat practically every day. it is a difficult journey, and it takes a lot of willpower but for some reason you got it and that'll help you be very successful.:thumbdown:

mmm when i need to get some fast food - i like to order a salad from carl's jr. i really like them. of course sometimes i would like to eat a cheeseburger with fries, but it is definitely a no no.

wowow, thank you for the recipe.....nice idea. liked the numbers 9lb loss. :rolleyes2:

i've been losing in my lower body as well, and i've also had a hard time with my upper body.....what i've seen that helps is lifting small weights and i see my upperbody a bit more toned. so i need to keep up with the exercise.:rolleyes2:

well the good thing is that you are sure of what you want to do. plus i think it would be a good idea to not take those comments personal....goodluck

great!!! congratulations keep up the good work.

wow, you're a great example to follow........keeps us motivated to continue working hard in our weight loss journey. thanks for sharing your ideas.

nope, but i wish you the best of luck. please keep us posted.

why don't you go out and do some walking or exercise, i think it would definitely help clear your mind, and get you away from having bad thoughts. another good idea is to call some friends, go out and have a good time.....you're young, you're healthy and you're beautiful, NOTHING to be depressed about!!! goodluck

just becareful to not add so much water. but i think it's doable. tell us how it went.

i had the same problem too. but after a month, everything went back to normal, now i sleep sideways on my back on every side LOL. so just be patient......everything will go back to normal.

i burp all the time, and if i don't take a walk after eating, i get gases. so then i burp and f..t

your doctor will give you all the necessary instructions. keep calm and everything will be just fine. goodluck and please keep us posted.

i eat less and i need to be careful of certain foods. but i can eat a bite of my favorite foods, like pizza and pasta. just don't over do it.......your body will definitely tell you.

when i eat chinese food, i try to be really careful and eat some white rice, with steamed veggies....some soup too.

i shared the news with my closest family and they were all very supportive.....it feels great when you know you have everyone´s support and you feel more motivated. :confused:

sligthly cheated but definitely did my best to keep it.

my surgeon is dr aceves as well......and i haven´t had that problem at all......are you in southern california? is there any way that you could contact dr aceves? or do you have to go with your doctor?

haven´t had any problems drinking at night. and i do try to drink little when having my meals.

the good thing is you´re healthy and that you know you´re losing weight, be positive as you said, what i did was started doing more exercise, after that everyone started noticing the weight loss.....try it.....i´m sure you´ll have positive results....goodluck
