  1. In August 2011, I weighed 167 In October 2011, I weighted 157 On my year anniversary, March 3, 2012, I weighed 156 Today, April 20, 2012, I weigh 155 I continue to eat the same amout of food, have increased my exercise to no less than 3 days a week ( I walk and jog on the treadmill, no less than 30minutes), yet, I feel my apetite is slowly returning and I am having difficulty loosing weight. WHAT am I doing wrong? Any suggestions/ advise? ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I am 5'2, highest weight was 232. age: 49 Surgery weight was 217. I journal my food intake and notice sometimes I get cravings for sweets or salt, I have also been attending Weight Watchers meetings since 3 months in, have been exerciseing 6 months in, usually meet my 62gms of protien daily, regareding Fluid intake, I don't always drink fluids on a daily basis, probably 8-12 daily, I've notice my appetitie is returning, I can now eat a full hamburger patty instead of half....I try to be mindful when eating, pausing, putting my spoon or fork down between bites. I am keeping to 4 meals a day with an afternoon snack (fruits or a drink). The appetite returning scares me and I try to increase my exercise or distractability, fluid intake and re-read my journal....I think I covered most of it.
  2. I was sleeved 3/3. I am learning what I can and can’t eat..I seem to tolerate most foods now. Over the last week, it appears I am getting full quickly to the point that I feel uncomfortable and have a strong urge to throw up…the food just comes up…Sometimes it is due to eating out and not eating mindfully, but other times I am not able to track where I went wrong…..I am also terrified that I may be stretching my stomach and that I will return to eating larger portions and all this work would have been for nothing. Does anyone know if this is true? That my stomach is being streatched......Any suggestions on avoiding throwing up?
  3. Can anyone tell me about surgery having air put into your stomach as part of the procedure? Also, any suggestions for help with hair loss?
