I could have written this post! I'm 6 months out and down 90lbs. My first goal is 100 by 12/31. Hmmmmm. I'm exercising, but the snacking needs to get a k under control. With the busyness of the holidays I'm not eating the way I was.

I'm 3 months out and own 72 lbs.

And vomiting bc you are too full is not like when you are sick. It comes up very easily. I'm 8 weeks out and still get sick 2-3 times a week. Mostly bc I've eaten too fast, therefore too much.

SO I was talking with a friend yesterday about the fact that I was going to have to go shopping today for some work clothes because school starts Monday and my pants are all falling off. I had an epiphany. When I was pregnant I bought Bella bands to be able to wear my pants longer when I didn't need maternity clothes yet and then wore them after as well. Well, why not apply that same principle to weight loss? So, I bought my pants tight today at lane Bryant along with a belly band at motherhood. It's freaking genius! I'll be able to wear te pants before they actually button, therefore getting longer wear out of them!

8 weeks. 61 lbs.

It's basically a spandex tube to hold your unbuttoned/unzipped pants up. Check it out on the motherhood maternity website.

UGh! This is frustrating. Up a lb, down a lb. been doing this for a week. I understand that my body needs to catch up. I'm down 55 lbs so far. It's just......UGH!!

I'll be 7 weeks out Monday. This is my first plateau. I guess that's one thing to be thankful for!

Normal. Chew some tums or take something like Zantac or Pepcid.

My dr doesn't prescribe it anymore. He said that the research shows that there isn't a whole lot of difference between taking it and not so he quit a few months ago. My daughter has liver disease a takes it. We have to get it compounded.

I'M 6.5 weeks out and down a total of 57 lbs. Sill having reflux issues. Doc prescribed Prevacid at my appt tues nd insurance is giving me fits. Still waiting. I've Ben taking OTC Pepcid since week two but it wears off at night. I'm having issues with excessive sweating. It's constant! Anyone else!? I'm also finding that nothing I drink tastes good! Today I bought minute maid 15 lemonade and it is currently making me happy. I'm having a hard time getting all my Protein in. I'm just over protein shakes! Ugh!

I started taking b12 and it really helped. The first 3 weeks were exhausting! It's gotten much better 6 weeks out!

I have premier shakes in the fridge. And I do like them, but the thought of drinking one right now nauseates me. I'm real careful with the lemonade and won't drink it unless ive eaten something prior to. It tastes crazy good though! :-)

It is good! I wish they made lemon. That's my fave! Therefore I still buy yoplait!

Good lord. When I get full, I start sweating like crazy!! My heart sometimes just pounds. What the hell?

See, I didn't have a drain either.

I'm 4.5 weeks out. Developed reflux around 2 weeks. Never had it before. I'm hoping it's temporary!

My incisions were glued. No staples or sutures.

Up 11lbs as well. Came off in a day or two.

My dr actually told me to pour it over ice to get the bubbles out and it's fine. I'm 4 weeks out and have had diet coke at the movies twice and it doesn't bother me. I had one at home, poured over ice and it was perfect. Definately not drinking it like I used to, but moderation is key!

I started cardio at te two week mark.

I've now taken three doses of miralax, last three nights, and still got nothin to show for it!! UGH!!

I slept on the couch for three nights bc I could semi slep on my side. By the end of the week I was on my stomach in my bed.

My dr said that if I had stones on my ultrasound that he would take my gallbladder out when he did my sleeve. My ultrasound was clear though.

Yup. Same here. The Pepcid is working finally and tums are a wonderful quick fix. Chew chew chew!
