Drinking Water is hard for me

I also had a hard time drinking water. Now, 6 weeks in, it is getting better. Even drinking milk or Protein Shakes went down smoother than water.
I can hardly drink water. My nut said to try cold tea, and I've gotten more than 50 oz the past two days.

I was sleeved June 25th and am down 40 lbs since my preop appointment June 8th Kinda of wish it would come off faster so I have started moving more.

I reached my 1st goal of having my weight in the 200's instead of 300's pretty pleased with that!

Just ended my first stall. It wasn't long but hard mentally. Sleeved June 8th. Total weight loss 79lbs, post op 55lbs. I had a few pics of lettuce with my meal tonight, never thought I would miss lettuce! It was so good!

School started today, so my washing and activity is crazy high.

Lost 33lbs since surgery June 16th. Depressed because my hair has now started to fall out. I know it only hair and that it'll grow but I try hard to get my Protein in, take Biotin and using Nioxin products and it doesn't even slow down the process. Feeling bummed today :-(

I think your weightloss is pretty good. I was sleeved on June 8th and I have only lost 37 pounds including the 2 week pre-op diet and it looks like I may be entering my second stall. I try to only weigh once a week but I peeked a couple of days early and I was up 1.5 pounds (eek!). So far my hair hasn't started falling out that I have noticed but I have very thick hair so it may be hard to tell.

its really depressing. Don't get me wrong I'm so glad that I had the surgery it's just my hair is thin to begin with.

Awesome! Great job! My one-month appointment got pushed back by a few weeks because of a family emergency, so my 3-month isn't for another month yet.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
