    Night Sweats

    I never had them before surgery and now get them at least twice a month. I'm only 33. If anyone knows a reason why....I would love to hear.

    Louisiana - Dr Chu

    I used Chu and have had a few friends use her, too. We all had the sleeve. I think she is an excellent doctor. I would have the procedure and use her again any day of the week. None of us had complications.
  3. I used Chu. I was self pay also. She's awesome. 11 months out, no complications, and very pleased. I highly recommend her.

    Alcohol and 2 weeks post op!

    My doctor cleared me for wine at 2 weeks. I have a few glasses every week since then. I am 10 months post op and have done very well. I'm almost to goal.
  5. I only lost 16 pounds the first month - my doc said I was perfect. Yes, it wasn't as much as others, but a loss is a plus no matter the number. Every person loses differently. Don't be discouraged. Keep your head up. You are doing a great job.

    March Roll Call!

    Me too. Stuck at 154. It goes up and then comes right back to 154.

    Update

    Thanks for all of your sweet comments. I feel so good about myself. I'm not going to lie, the first three months were rocky, but worth it.

    I Have Stopped Losing!

    I'm in the same exact boat, ddfinn. Sleeved on march 7, have lost 60, and stuck on 159. Up a pound, down a pound, for the last month. Starting boot camp tonight. I want to get to 140.
  11. Thanks, Neil. I enjoyed your post. Everyone is different with different doctors. Do what is best for you. Diets do not work. This is a new way of life for all of us. Everything in moderation. Don't worry, be happy.

    Major Stall

    I would like to lose 25 more pounds.
  13. I am a little over six months out. I haven't lost any weight in over a month. I have been a very slow loser since the beginning. I have lost approximately 50 pounds, that is including pre-op. I really think my body is not going to let me lose anymore. Any one else stop at six months?

    Slim Fast For Protein Drinks?

    I use low carb slim fast. 20 g protein, 2 carbs, and very low sugar. I love them!!! I drink one everyday.
  15. Steak and meatballs....at different times, of course.
