  • Hi. I am doing well too. Not keeping track (better do that) of fluids but feel I am doing pretty well. Taking in as much as I can possibly get in. As long as I pee I think all is good. Keep sending

  • And congrats on the loss. I'm down 11 as well according to my personal tracking. Will get the doctor's official assessment tomorrow :-)

Happy 2 weeks everyone!!

I can't believe it's only been 2 weeks truthfully. I remember when I've had a day of overdoing it. I too am dealing with itchy incision sites, but the steri-strips are off on all but one and that seems to have helped a tiny bit.

My doctor's orders puts me on puréed food starting tomorrow for THREE WEEKS (!!!). I'm looking forward to some change at this point, but I can imagine after the second week, it might get boring lol. But that's what I signed up for, right? Lol oh well.

My biggest struggle right now, besides getting in the 64oz of Fluid, is the pure exhaustion. Still not completely sleeping well, but that's getting better thankfully. However, I was an energizer bunny before the surgery and that's a hard habit to break. Unfortunately, I just don't have the energy to do that anymore but my head hadn't gotten the memo until recently. After spending the entire day out and about, and even with several breaks and came home exhausted and with pain in my incision sites. Trying not to make that mistake again, but it's hard.

How's everyone else doing?

I'm doing very well! I go for my follow-up visit with my doctor tomorrow. I will probably go to pureed foods by then. I really have not felt exhausted. My monthly did come a few days ago and the first day had me out! Only then was a very exhausted. May God bless everyone! Keep up the good work.

Hello everyone today i went to my fellow up with my doctor I lost 25lb I could not believe it

doc said thats normal after surgery I fell weak kind of light

headed doc says I can go on pureed foods but its still hard to

get over the fact that I am on this journey good luck to all.

Happy 3 wks!! How's everyone doing? I'm finally getting over the sheer exhaustion I was feeling over wk 2 and am oddly ok with the pureed food. Had a NSV (Non scale Victory) today-I bought boots at DSW! They are wide calf still, but they fit!! I went to one of the plus size stores to find boots, as usual, and they were all too big. I didn't think I had lost any inches on my legs but I will take it! Bought TWO pairs!!

How's everyone doing?

Happy 4 wks everyone. How's everything going?

Officially hit the 30lb mark and having many more NSV which to me has been even better lol. I was never much of a numbers girl (until that number was too big) so those sometimes motivate me more than the scale does. Anyone taking weekly pics? That has helped as well.

Hope everyone is doing well!
