I'm about 7 weeks post op and would love a buddy if anyone is interested

Hi my name is Jayme, I had surgery on June 28th... I say of surgery I weighed 354lbs, I currently weigh 325lbs, that was as of Friday this last week. I feel I'm not losing the weight as fast as I wanted to. How are you feeling? 29lbs isn't bad I suppose, just thought it would be more..two weeks post surgery I stopped losing for a week and a half not sure y that was.

I'm feeling ok but weight loss is slow Ive lost 32 since surgery and 21 before surgery but everything has slowed a lot. I haven't been able to exercise for a month cause of kidney stones. I finally can now

I worry about kidney stones with all the protein intake and the inability to get water in..... I'm always worried cause my urine is extremely concentrated, I'm constantly thirsty, I freeze water bottles and take them on the go

I had thm before the surgery they just decided to come out after. I had to actually get one removed

I had my surgery on July 11th and have a kidney stone now that I am trying to pass, and its not good. Drink plenty of fluids if you can and eat every three hours they tell me but I farm for a living and I don't know what I will be doing in three hours. Good luck.

Did they say what caused them, I have one now and had to go to the ER Sunday morning and they tell me I will pass it, hurts like the dickens. I think I will name it.

I had the surgery on July 11th. I am doing great and can eat what ever I want now just not as much. I have lost 33 pounds since the surgery and would have been more if I would eat the right thing. I am very happy with the surgery, weight loss and everything. I went on my pre diet in the middle of February and have lost 82 pounds since February. Please diet some before the surgery and it will help out a great deal during surgery. There was a women who did not go on the diet before surgery that was operated that morning before me and it caused complications and it put my operation back for 5 hours. I went home the next day and have been taken off all my meds except one, I was on 13 different meds in February. Good luck.

Hello, my name is Melissa. I had my gastric sleeve surgery on July 31, 2013. I started out at 425.. my current weight is 365. I have been able to incorporate different foods. I have no appetite and have to remind myself to eat. I worry if I am doing it. I would like to find a buddy or mentor because a lot of times I am ny myself on this journey.
