I'm officially down 60 pounds. Today is my 4 month sleeve anniversary. I can't believe i did it. 35 more until i hit my goal. I found out on this journey that i really love weight lifting and boxing. I also found out that healthy eating isn't as bad as i thought it would be. I'm loving my new lifestyle. I don't know why i didn't do this sooner.

Just tried to eat some cream soup and after 2 tsp - nope. I just gag. Haven't thrown up since the hospital but gag all the time. I'm going to email my doctor Tuesday about the nausea. My nurse mentioned to me about the scopaline (sp?) patch for nausea and I've seen it mentioned on here as well. Maybe that will help. You're not alone - I'm feeling pretty miserable too. I know it'll get better but the day to day is very tiresome. Forgot to mention, has your sense of smell gone into hyperdrive? Omg I've had to move candles out of the room, my husband cooked broccoli last night and I thought I was gonna lose it! He cooked bacon this morning and I had to go outside until he was done eating . I've always had a strong sense of smell but this is over the top and it contributes to the nausea.

Weight loss is an added bonus during pre-op, now matter how many or few lbs lost. It's all for your liver. Just follow your plan and it'll be fine.

p.s. I'm two years out and have lost 236 lbs (*all* my weight). I didn't increase calories to break stalls. I just kept doing what I was supposed to do. They always always broke. Just stick to your plan.

I had mine on May 22 and I'm feeling pretty darn good. I am sore but no pain. Like I did crunches. The second night was rough but still manageable. I had some nausea and did throw up. Honestly I expected much worse. You'll be so thrilled when you have this behind you! Best wishes and let us know how you did!

Gastric bypass is the surgery recommended for diabetic sufferers. In a lot of cases,patients normally stop taking diabetic meds the day of operation. Unfortunately I won't be as I've been suffering for over 20yrs from diabetes.

Why did you increase your carbs? Glycogen in your liver and cells, creating water weight after coming off low carbing. That is your weight gain right there. Increase your protein and try to keep your carbs at 25, max 50. That is pretty easy to do. Meat and green veggies, that is all you should be eating, and the odd protein shake if you are running low on protein for the day.

Dont give up. Go back to liquids is what I always read on these post Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app

Would love to see your photos, but they aren't showing up.

You are doing so well! I went for over two weeks without losing anything. One thing that kicked me into high gear was lifting weights. I do weights three times a week and it really jump started my weight loss. I wouldn't worry if I were you, though. You are doing really well. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
