Yes I don't like food much either. Dealing with nausea but my energy is good. When was the last time you had your Iron level checked? I take Biotin daily so no issues with hair. Good job on your weight loss and I hope you feel better soon

I havn't had any blood work done yet. Go back to see my surgeon in 3 weeks so we'll see then what she has to say.

So my energy levels have been good but I've been having almost like cramps in my shoulders. They're always tense and I have some numbness and tingling. Anyone having this issue? I've been going to the chiropractor to see if that helps some.

I got my 6 month blood work back today, and it wasn't great. Let's just say I haven't done a great job remembering to take my Vitamins. So I went and bought some new ones, and got a bottle to keep in my desk and some to keep in my purse and I'm going to do better. Hopefully that will also help with the shoulder issues.

I've also been trying to up my Fluid intake the past few days because I've been hungry all the time and it's seemed to help a lot.

I can so relate with the tingling and Vitamin situation. I wasn't the best at taking my vitamins and gradually day by day my legs and feet and toes were very tingly and even got crazy numb like a going to sleep feeling and it has stayed liked that going on 3 months. Little did I know I developed a vitamin deficiency to b1. So now I set alarms to remind to take my vitamins lol bc let me tell ya I wouldn't wish this feeling on my worst enemy. You never realize how much something means until you don't have it and let me tell ya it's hard to cope with the fact that I'm only 28 and at one point was having to walk with a walker for support. So needless to say I will try my best to NEVER forget my vitamins again lol .

I always forget mine as well. I am trying to get better. My main issue is energy to get through my work outs. I get my labs checked in three weeks so I will get it together before then dont want any problems. They already thing I may be anemic becasue of my energy and I am always cold like always. I am very happy with my progress thus far and wish everyone luck.

2012 to today. And yes, I actually completed my first walk. I couldn't run it, it was 4.5 miles uphill, but I did it!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
