    Plateau

    Everybody on this site have talked about plateaus since 3 weeks out. It is normal and while you are in a plateau, you body is adjusting in inches. 4 days is nothing. If you haven't taken any measurements, then this is the time to measure yourself. You have done a great job losing and your body has it's own agenda on weight loss. Trust that the process is happening. CONGRATS! You are a success!

    Jumped Thru Hoops !

    Yes, it is totally normal to worry about this stuff. The way I handled it was, I just did it. Kept myself busy up until the AM of the surgery. Then I was kinda freaking out and wanting to run away. But I didn't. I had the procedure and have had no complications from the surgery. This is the best decision I could of made for myself.

    Muffin Top - Wth?

    Since week 1 I was able to get in 6 ozs of yogurt or sf pudding. But when I eat more dense foods like meats It's more or less 3 oz. That's all I need and I am really full. Earlier it was smaller portions. I didn't eat dense foods until around 4 months out. I love my sleeve!
  5. I went walking in the park and I seen this skinny lady walking. I thought too myself, I want to look like that, skinny. Well driving to my office, I realized, I am that skinny women! Yayyyyyyy! I love my skinniness!

    Two Week Update And Weigh In

    I wanted to run away when in the hospital getting checked in. I was ok as long as I was busy but having 2 nd doubts. Going through with the surgery was a hard decision to make, but it was the best decision I have ever made and I wish I could of had this procedure year ago. I love my skinniness!

    11 Weeks Not Much Success

    Webchickadee is totally right. You have lost 21 lbs! That's really big. You might be a slow steady loser which is actually better that a fast loser. Sit back, follow the rules for the sleeve, and take in the scenery too? It's an amazing journey.
  8. Totally normal.. You are lucky you had one, i didn't have one for almost 2 weeks post op...

    Muffin Top - Wth?

    I have a muffin top below my belly button and the incisions were made above in the upper part of my torso. There's no healing going on down there.

    Bad Medicine

    I hate it when my allergies are acting up. I always get a runny nose when eating in restaurants. Now I get a runny nose when I'm full. Oh and the sneezing also hinders me. Our stomach's are certainly more sensitive now.

    Muffin Top - Wth?

    Is it fat or skin? I will probably need a tummy tuck down the line. I hope my tummy and skin will adjust as time goes on, but if it doesn't, then I might get a tummy tuck.

    Complications

    This is a nightmare for you. Sending healing energy your way. I'm picturing your blot clot getting smaller and smaller and just going away! This is a mental exercise you can do in addition to medical interventions. Use it through out your day. Will be thinking about you so please keep us posted as to how your doing.

    Uhhh Ohhh

    You could be just fine. I take Colace 500mg and nothing really happens. I agree with Webchickadee, sit in the back of the room and excuse yourself it need be. Try and relax.
  17. Yesterday I discovered that the base of my neck has definition! Wowwww! Great NSV!

    Expected Weight Loss After Surgery

    I have lost 80% of my weight. I would like to get down 10 lbs and I have pasted my doc's goal. I love my new skinniness!
  23. It's best to follow the doc's orders by continuing to eat pureed food's. The reason for this is that the staple line has not healed yet and so if you eat solid foods it can cause a leak. And to me I don't want a leak. Yes you can puree anything with a blender. Hang in there, it will happen soon.

    Bread

    Bread is what makes us fat! However, I do eat some in small amounts with a sandwhich. I throw 1 slice in the trash and will eat 1 piece. Sometimes it gets dry. I also don't like the carbs it has and some has very little nutritional value to it. It also takes up too much room in my stomach.

    ***need Your Opinions Everyone***

    I think you should go for it. This is a great thing that you can give to others to assist in their weight loss. I'm going to do some Life Coaching and bariatrics soon.
