Pre surgery: 299 Day of surgery 9/7- 279 Today : 249.2 I'm down 50 lbs! I stalled week 3 & 4. Then lost about 5 lbs in week 5. Stay strong!

Stalls around then are normal. I dropped quickly in week 1 and 2. The next to nothing week 3 and 4. Now I'm at week 5 and have lost another 5 lbs! Woo hoo! Stay strong, keep getting in all your h2o and protein and you WILL see results!

Finally out of my stall! Down another 5 lbs! Stay strong girls! We can and will do this!

How are you doing? What's your weight loss as of now?

Soooooo..... I got surgery a month ago, I've lost 27 lbs since then and lost 20 before surgery, so total is 47 lbs . I went down in the basement to look for something and noticed a bucket of my fall/ winter clothes, I decided to bring it. EVERYTHING in the bucket was my pre- baby clothes, my Sweet Caroline is 16 months old now.. EVERYTHING FITS!!! Even some pants are too big!! I'm the same size/ smaller than when I got pregnant. I've been doing the happy dance for hours! Thank you sleeve!!!

It's amazing! Thank you it feels so good!

Congrats! That's amazing!! Xx

I also had the hernia repair. It did cause more swelling, I didn't feel any pain where it was. I have 4 incisions and then the tiny one for the drain. I'm 4 weeks out... No pain at all, 27 lbs down since surgery

I love the way you did your pics! That's awesome. Congratulations!

Ever since I did the update to the iOS6 or whatever, my iPad isn't cooperating with this website either. Sooooo annoying!

I don't know that answer, but am curious to know since I was also sleeved 9/7. what kinds f things are you eating? How's your weight loss?

Just throw some leggings under it if you think it's too short! Looks adorable, congrats!!

I was sleeved the 7th, we have about the same weight loss and eating the same things. I've been naughty and cheated a little, but I'll tell you, it isn't always a good outcome! I'm supposed to be only on pure ends til this Friday, but I eat turkey, cheese, chicken Soups, tuna and egg salad, ground turkey, tonight I had haddock, are you on myfitnesspal? M tekara3927, we could both share what were eating. I follow a lot of people and get awesome ideas.

NG you may have a yeast infection or something... I'm not sure. I've been fine, and sex has been absolutely ah-mazingggg. Sometimes a UTI can cause pain during sex. Maybe get her checked? Just to be safe and sure. Not saying it doesn't happen, I just can't relate. Good luck!! Hope it gets better!

As for recipes that are easy, I'm with the deli meats, cheeses. Yogurts, things you don't have to cook. Good luck.

Grilled cheese and tomato soup! I eat some tomato soup and she has both. Yum! That's only one night, but that's been easy for me. I also did another night of pasta with tomato sop as the sauce, she loved it. Good luck.

Omg I was soooo itchy!! It gets better! I'm 3 weeks out, down 27 lbs. post op plus another 20 pre op... I'm almost 50 pounds down! I LOVE my sleeve! It's frustrating not being able to eat what I want, but I just remind myself, if I was eating what I wanted, then I would not be down 47 lbs!!!! Best wishes! Stay up on your water!!!!

So I had my surgery 9/7. I lost 20 pre op and 27 so far since surgery. I've been naughty and have eaten things I shouldn't, but I always make sure to chew it up good. I'm going to get back on track hopefully tomorrow. I have been tracking on myfitnesspal. I need to get more water in, I hear that's the trick to loosing weight faster. I've been walking, but I hope to be going to they soon. Keep keeping on ladies!!

I want to be a skinny bride next fall when I walk down the aisle. I want to have skinny sex ( all the time) I want to run a 5k I want to wear a dress and not get chub rub. I want to shop like a normal girl and not have to try on everything. I want to shower with my fiancé. I want to keep up with my 1 year old. I want to flash someone. I want to not worry about how big I look in a booth at a restaurant. I don't want to be the big girl with the pretty face anymore.

How's everybody doing??

How much are you getting in??

Call your doctor.

Tried chocolate yesterday, bad news bears. . I know it's early, it was only 2 bites, but boy oh boy was I stuck in the bathroom forever.

I mean mines not horrible, I have a 1 year old I carry around and I nanny for a family with other children, so I'm constantly on the go, walking a lot. The only time it bothers me is at night, when I get in and out of bed, certain things I lift cause pain. I know they say no more than 10- 15 lbs, but my doc played me with my daughter, she's 22 lbs and he said since I've always lifted her it wouldn't cause any harm, but I lift the other children, just I use my left side instead of my right side where it's still tender. If you're in a lot of pain still I'm not sure that's too normal. I think a little tender is fine, but it. Shouldn't keep you from doing normal everyday things.

I'm 3 weeks out today and my big incision is still tender inside. The outside is pretty much healed, but insides def tender
