To Weigh Or Not Too Weigh That Is The Question
Squisha replied to Fiesta728834's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I weigh my self once a week, and again on the 21 of every month, since i had surgery on the 21 i like to keep track of how much i lose over all every month. It is not required by my doctor, i just enjoy seeing every pound i lose. I also like to kind watch for stalls or if i gain anything so that i know if i need to watch my portions or add more exercise. -
I was told as soon as it was confortable, took me 2 weeks.

Does Wl Really Stop At 6 Mos?!
Squisha replied to Blugirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am almost 7 months out, and still losing. I have a lot left to lose. I am down 100lbs so far and the first 4 or 5 months the weight just melted off. Now i am having to work a little harder to keep it coming off at the pace i want. I am now excersizing 5 days a week, which is much easier now. My goal is to lose 50lbs in the second 6 months and another 50 in the third 6months. At 18 months i will decided what I have left to lose. -
It's never to soon to ask someone what sent they are wearing. I have been known to ask an occasional stranger what they are wearing if i really like a scent.

Did Anyones Surgery Effect Your Menstrul Cycle?
Squisha replied to SleeveShelly's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was finishing up day of surgery and it started back up very heavy the day after surgery, because of the blood thinners, mine was super crazy before surgery, i am finally getting back to it being semi regular -
I am 6 months out, I have no buyer remorse, the sleeve was the best thing I have ever done for myself. No depression though I have had a few days , crying for stupid reasons or no reason, last for 30 min to an hour and then I am fine again. I've heard that part is from the hormones being released as you lose weight.

Are All Proteins Created Equal
Squisha replied to Getting There's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I know a couple people in my support group that are vegetarian and vegan, i know they got all of there protein from non meat sources, they talk about lots of beans. I do know 1 of them at 17 months out still drinks 1 protein drink to make sure she gets all her protein. -
I completely agree, I am 6 months out have lost 98 pounds and my approach is to not deny myself anything, but to focus on protein and healthier eating. When i feel the need for someting a little less healthy i know a few bites will satasify me.
