    Almost 7 months out

    From 235 to 150... Let the scale keep on dropping!!!
  5. It's very painful. My food doesn't just move along when I eat and drink.. The Water just gathers around in my stomache and it hurts.. It's like eating way too much.. Not worth it...
  6. I am so 150.... 20 pounds to go..

  7. I'm 6 months out and 21 pounds from my goal of 130. I've noticed the last month or so it seems I lose more or faster when I eat more carbs. I usually try to eat one heavy carb a day like, rice, potatos, tortilla and the rest of the day low carb.. I eat about 1/3 a cup when I eat. My sleeve is just as small now as the day I got sleeved.. I don't drink sugar and rarely drink drinks with any other sweetner.. Yesterday, DH's birthday... I ate BBQ, potato salad, baked beans heavy on the bbq sauce and cake without frosting and a smoothie from smoothie king.. No extra exercise... I lost a pound and a half.. I weigh myself twice a day every day and my weight does not flucuate I usually weight myself before i eat and at night at least 2 hours after I eat.. This is not the first or the second time this happened to me.. In the past I haven't eaten anything this extreme though. I'm starting to think my body is in starvation mode... What do you all think?

    Starvation Mode?

    When I hit six months on the 9th, I started adding one heavy carb. I've lost about 6 pounds since then.. Before I completely stated away from potatos, pasta, rice or bread and of course sugar..

    Low blood pressure

    The same thing has happened to me on occasion in the last couple weeks. I didn't know what it was so I just started adding carbs and waiting for my 6 month blood work. I don't know if this happens to anyone else but my legs fall asleep when I'm sitting or laying down. When I stand I'm have to try to walk off the pins out. I assumed it had something to do with my intake of Vitamins.. Thanks so much everyone..
  11. I had some terrible breakouts right after surgery as well.. It took a few weeks but after everthing leveled out but now my skin is ALMOST flawless... Give it a few weeks.. I think it's just hormones and your body adjusting to change..

    5 mojnts post up

    My body is a train wreak. My whole body looks dried up.. My boobs are done.. You can see every pound and 3 csecs in the stomach that I have. My saddlebags around my thighs make me wonder if I will ever be able to wear shorts again, but all in all I'm so happy.. I can wear a bra with lots of support and padding to make my boobs look good. I can wear jeans or a shaper in a dress to make my stomach look normal. I can also wear pants or a long skirt to make my saddlebags disappear. I couldn't do that before. I could only wear the latest design in sack dresses or curtain inspired outfits. Now I have option. I can make myself look good in clothes.. It's still early.. I'm going on 6 months post. After a year I will seriously be considering plastic surgery, For now I'm just grateful that I'm healthier than I was 6 months ago. To be honest the skin can tighten a little but probably not the miracle that you and I both want.. I hope you feel better.. I'm sure you look beautiful..
