Congratulations on your best decision ever!!! Well the first 5 days are the hardest! The next 3 weeks weren't so bad and then it gets easier. Hair loss no one told me about and didn't know it was going to happen! At 3 months out I started loading a lot hair but I have a lot of hair so not a big deal but start taking Biotin now it helps. The biggest thing I can say is just do everything they tell you to do. Eat slow and look for signs your getting full because if you over eat your stomach feels like a rock and other time you just throw up. I finally figure it out if I sneeze or my nose starts running I have to stop eating because that's my sign I'm full. Also make sure you weigh everything it helps. Clothes at first it's small but then it's starts the clothes just start falling off. I went from size 22 to an 18 and then 18 to 16. And now I'm going in to some 14. Don't bit a lot of clothes look for a sale and buy a few things just to get your thru. I hit a one day Macys sale and got 5 pants for 60 dollars and that's great. It's all just goes fast. Also get yourself a fitbit - this thing is great you can keep track of your meals and your Water. It give you a break down of fat vs carbs and Protein. I try to keep my carbs under 40 and make sure I get in at least 60 protein. Also it's keeps track of your steps and your activity . It helps me get my steps in. I hope this helps and if you have any other questions just ask. Good luck to you!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
