    I Think I Am A Sleeve Failure!

    Thank you everyone! im gonna try doin protein and water for the next five days and see what happens. also this might be gross but what do u take to have a bm cause that isnt a regular thing anymore.
  5. Okay so i have a question for all you veteran sleevers. I used to love chugging back a cold glass of water and i have been having a hard time with gettin my liquids in because i couldnt drink no more than a few sips at a time. the last few days i noticed that i can actually almost continuously drink and not hurt afterwards. AN ALMOST CHUG. lol i could keep going but of course i get a brain freeze right away . im wondering if i ruined my sleeve or if eventually it just gets easier to drink like that again? weird thing to miss. i know ! after being sleeved but thats the one thing i did love was chuggin cold water or iced tea!

    197! 197! I'm Under 200!

    Yay! i'm so happy for you! that must feel amazing!
  9. Well today i started with a trainer today! it felt good to wanna exercise but felt crappy to realize how out of shape i am. Also those mirrors are not my friend. I Looked in the mirror and didnt feel like i looked any different 40 lbs ago. it saddens me and its diheartening but i do know that this is another great start to this weightloss journey.
  10. I am 3 months out and have stopped losing weight but i am still losing inches. you have to make sure u eat enough or else your body will try to hold on to the fat. high protein and healthy carbs. your losing is not over trust me! make sure your drinking adequate water too because if u get dehydrated you will feel tired and sick! i have had this feeling of what is the point i am not losing but trust me its not the end. your body needs some time to adjust to the changes that are happening. i hope this helped keep your chin up and dont give up! i hope this helps you!

    Exercise

    Can anyone help me with what we should make sure we are eating if we are gonna kick it hard at the gym?
  12. i do alot of whining and self sabotaging. i worry too much what the scale says. but all in all i must say nothing feels better than when u see someone on the street and they tell you how good your looking and they cant believe the difference. I say that beats the scale victories hands down.
  13. I have the same issue as all of u when was your surgery date pammie? but i here that we can stall for a long time then our inches catch up to our lbs and we are back losing so im waiting for that to happen very impatiently.
  14. drink your water i take zantac sometimes helps with the nausea i dont know why but mine is usually accompanied by heart burn . make sure your eating enough calories and getting your protein in that i hear is one of the keys to success. i am at a 3 week stall so far and its frustrating although the inches are coming off in all different places each week i do notice a difference. thuis forum helps alot.
  15. I have been post op for 3 months and everyone is saying they can see the weight loss in my face and in my belly. Im ok with that but i tell ya i have been fluctuating in between -37 -40 lbs for weeks. i have had slip ups but im a really active person. i find myself getting tired easy but at the same time i have more energy if that makes sense. im just frustrated and i know all the rules and i know i break some of them but man alive. i eat nxt to nothing. I have noticed this past week that i dont get that stuck feeling as soon as i swallow any more. so i eat to fast and have made myself sick 3 times. lol i know i know sloww down. take your time chew your food. i have had the worst head hunger you could imagine lately. so i guess back to basics water water water and protein. ugh! anyway thats my gripe for the evening. sometimes i think that they nvr took enough of my stomach. maybe im just obssessing. anyway night all and thanks for listening.
  16. fantastic! thats how you look! great job! i cant wait to post my pics!

    Omeprazole

    i was prescribed it after my surgery which was in mexico! i find zantac and water the best and stay away from acidic things like citrus. Also i noticed today crystal light gives me the acid too
  18. you will probably feel hungry from time to time on liquids also you might not be hungry it might be head hunger. once you start on solids again u will be quick to realize that you fill up fast. just remember to take your time when u get to the part where u can eat! good luck

    3 Months Out...

    i am 2 and a little months out and i am fluctuating inbetween 35 and 38 lbs lost. i use visalus shakes and make them with orange juice and frozen fruit because i too hate the taste of protein shakes. i was feeling the same way you are. but this forum really helps your not the only one and also as long as the inches are coming off dont worry about the number on the scale. i have a friend who seen me two weeks ago and noticed the difference when she saw me today and i have only lost 2 or 3 lbs since then. so you cant go by the lbs as much as the inches. keep up the good work
  20. im 2months out and have not experienced any hairloss.
  21. I know im not supposed to but i have indulged in a few friday nights drinkin with everyone . i think i have slowed my weightloss as a result. i am down 30 lbs since dec 12 2011. things that i am not supposed to eat i find go down easier. so i have a little here and there. i think its slowed my weightloss down substantially. i am now gonna focus more on protein and gettin my water in starting tomorrow. i havent started to exercise yet but that is because i find it hard to juggle my kids and my job and my house to find time to go to the gym. my job is physical and early hours. i wanna invest in a tredmill so that its handier and i wouldnt have to find a sitter or leave the house. im only venting here cause its no good to tell anyone around me unless they have had the sleeve surgery. I know im just in a mood but love that we all have each other to vent on and encourage. anyways wish me luck for the next little while.
  22. ahhh! thanks lissa your always so encouraging!
