Okay, this may sound totally stupid, but since I have started taking weight off, I have one or two spots that are itching me to death. I have put lotion on them, thinking it was dry skin. I have tried anti-itch creams. Right under my breast and in the folds of my legs where my underwear lays. Is anyone else having a problem like this, or is it in my head. HELP!! What will make it stop.

I did this too especially in the summer. Mine has subsided since I have lost 23 lbs. but I did have it. Of course it is now winter too, so I don't know exactly what it is, but I did have it....

Funny you meantion this, I have a new dry patch in my inner elbow, been putting some heavy duty creme on it, and it cleared up.

Not to derail the thread but has anyone else had their scars itch, mine itch all the time.

My scars itch all the time! It drives me crazy, especially at night. Instead of scratching, I gently rub them and it helps.

Add me to the list of itching! This started after my surgery (one month ago) and my stomach itches constantly. It's worse under my breasts. If anyone has any tips or what has worked for them I'd be grateful. Just PM me if you'd like.

My first post and it's about itching! I have the same under my breasts and my underwear lines! It's annoying! Glad I'm not the only one (not that I want anyone to itch)!

My scars itch like crazy. My big scar and one of the little scars are raised and itch ALL the time. I put hydrocortisone cream on them and they feel better.

      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.
