I think I started a solid daily routine 2 months out.. And really really working it was at 3 months out.. Good luck!!! Exercise really has made changes in my body =]

I would say it has helped me a lot .. But even though I work out 5 days a week 1.5 hrs n a trainer.. I am starting to see more lose skin in my arms, inner thigh and lower abdomen.. But with all and all I feel great.. Idk if not working out would of bn worse??

Putting clothes away and came across my old tight fitted jeans.24/26.. I compared to the ones I bought yesterday 13/14.. I just realized how much a have shrunk .. Sometimes it takes a while to realize .. Yay!! Lol

Good morning everyone!! It's been 5 months already, hurray! So far down 71 lbs but for the last 3 weeks I haven't lost anything =(... Still exercising 5 times a week and eating the same amounts.. but not sure if its a normal stall or what! Anyone experienced a stall around this month? I'm just thinking its weird since I am burning what I intake, maybe it is the muscle I am gaining.. The trainer measured me and I did increase muscle on my legs... not sure if that is holding me back..

Yesterday went shopping and I must say I loved every min of it!!! I was a size 24-26 and now I'm a size 15 and xl or large top omg I just love seeing my body reshape and change day by day !! And to think ill be only 5 months out next week still half way but feeling great, awesome, wonderful and SEXY! lol

Woohoo congrats!!!! I'm almost 5 months and so far 70

Thank you Hiw has it bn for you !?!

Updated pics 9th will be my 5th month started at 284 down to 214

Good morning All- Well for about 3 weeks I havent taken any protein shakes at all... I know it is bad and I should but I just got a lil tired of taking it and one day I didnt take it and well here we are .. How bad is it? I woke up today thinking I can get sick?.. SO far I have not lost any energy.. still working out 5 times a week .. Haven't seen any symptoms that have scared me to take it again... I know I should though =(... My hair is still falling but in the same rate as when I was taking the shakes.. so I am not sure.. Has any one gotten thru a period of not wanting to take protein shakes? I mean I do eat fish, meat, milk, eggs etc etc but I am just not taking the extra shakes...

Hey guys!! So today was my check up with my personal trainer and I thought I'd share hood news I lost 12 lbs this month, lost 9% of belly fat BUT the important thing was gained some muscle mass !!! Afterall I think I might be eating enough protein Thank you all for your comments and tips. I did buy some power crunch bars n they are delicious wafer type and also some pre made protein drinks with 35 grams ., they are good as well!!! yay, 70lbs down and being on a stall for 2 weeks..

Well my Doctor did not have me start protein shakes till month 2 .. I guess every surgeon has different guidelines. On july 9th I will be hitting my 5th month post op.. I guess I started tpo worry more because this month hairloss has speed up so fast and I am scared of going bald lol well I do see hair growth and my skin and nails are fabulous.. but the hair part no so good... I tried to take powder collagen for a few weeks but that thing is gross!!! I should start taking biotin atleast to slow down the hairloss... Do you guys think you can actually go bald or have bald spots ?? Well if I get to that extreme I guess I shall wear a wig...

Thank you for your info. Well to be honest I do not keep a log of how much protein I do per day.. But I do try to eat high protein foods like you mentioned. I am not sure if I eat more than 60 grams though.. But I do not feel tired or in bad health on the contrary I feel good, I have been able to even hike 10 miles without getting light headed or anything. But I guess just to make sure I will atleast try to have one shake per day with 2 scoops.

Thank you for the response girls.. I know it's a bad decision and well I have to get back on track. I am definetly scared of getting muscle wasting... So starting today I will take my protein =) ... Believe me I was even ashamed of admitting that I havent been taking it =( But I guess that is the first step to getting back in track.

I'm so happy I was able to hike for 5 straight hrs !!! What an accomplishment =]

I'm from LA and ws sleeved 2/9 by Dr Ponce =]

Last week on my 4 month check up they performed an abdominal ultrasound n no more fatty liver but they did see a small tiny stone in my gallbladder .. Is there something I can do to prevent it?? My doctor wasn't too concerned he said it's so small he thinks it should pass .. But idk if I should worry about it??

This Saturday June 9 will be my 4 months post surgery. . Today went for my check up and it went so wonderful so far lost 57 lbs and so many inches!! Was wearing size 24 n now can fit dress size 16 but the greatest is.. Today they performed an abdomen ultrasound to check on my fatty liver n now is a minimal.. !!! Before surgery it was saturated with fat.. I am happy !!!!

Hey everyone!!! I was sleeved Feb 9, starting weight 284 and as of yesterday I am 227.. 56 lbs that have totally changed my life .. Looking forward in the coming months.. I do exercise also 5 times a week n out of those 5 days 2 t with a trainer.

Finally not scared of taking fullbody pics See some before afters

It's been three months and have lost 50lbs !!!! Yay!!! Working out 4-5 times a week for about 1 hr.. ) it's great to even be at this weight !!!! Yay us !!!

You look awesome!!!

You guys think 41lbs in 10 weeks is slow?? I sure feel like it lol I bn going to the gym 4times a week for about 50mins just cardio (2 weeks already).. Is it because I'm not losing so much muscle mass ? I guess sometimes I see some people losing up to 50 lbs by 10 weeks..

I am 2 months post op, today during lunch time I tried a tiny piece of sandwich (turkey) as soon as I swallowed I felt a nasty feeling.. Something stuck.. I got panicked a lil.. Then I had a bit of water when everything came up nasty nasty feeling ever.... I guess bread was too dry or turkey not sure..
