You look great. Beautiful. Woohoo

I'm now 8 weeks out feeling Happy but I take st John's wort tea on work days.

I'm in hoping to get to 199 by July 4. That Doc program is over the top. Awesome.

At 3 weeks out I had crying spells. I was easily angry at things before by 1 week out . Most of it lasted a short time. But I say it is normal with all the changes and adjustments. Each day gets far better than the last day. Some of it is the Anesthesia, medication, withdrawal, fatigue and dehydration contributes to it. If you think you need to then talk to a counselor But many of us has experienced this.

Good luck. Congrats on your surgery date.

First it is great that you are deciding to get the VSG done. But the VSG is not a diet to be compared to medifast. It's a tool and a Lifestyle change. With the lost of a large portion of your stomach you cant just switch back to eating the same foods over night like you can with quick diets, as In yo-yo dieting. Which is what brought many of us to this point. The good news is that with this new tool. Some people even loose their craving and appetite for those unhealthy foods at times. It takes very little to fill you up. So goals are obtainable. Many diets are high in sugary anyhow. This is not a temporary fix but one that can make you proud and Happy alone the way. It's all about a better you. Almost 8 weeks out down 40 lbs. I love my sleeve.

Praying for you to have an easy surgery and a speedy recovery.

Woohoo. You look fantastic

You look great. Wow. Fantastic

I'm dealing with something similar from my back. I say get that check out Further.

Praying for you

No, I was off close to 7 weeks. My job requires lots of lifting. But this is Major Surgery. And every one body responds different. And recovery can vary. I say plan for extra time go back when you think you can. Some people did go back in a week. Good luck

I'm in the medical field and guess what? I didn't even ask my physician it has not made a difference. 7 weeks out 37 lbs down. Slightly Slow looser but it's going Well. Yay

1 word Painful . It's painful to drink and eat at the same time. I have forgotten 1 time too many. I have not had a craving for Soda. It's enough to get water and protein in. I wouldn't waste my daily carbs on soda (empty calories) that will probably make me sick. This is just my Opinion.

Not everyone but I wear a wig anyhow.

My hair is thinning at the top 7.5 weeks out. Today I'm in a 12/14 top 16/18 pant great! I was a 3x but my arms are still big.

Well they would been able to pay for the drivers and workers salary off of me alone. But thanks to my new sleeve Not! Honestly It should be a Ban on them delivering by people pushing healthy foods especially for children.

Woohoo! Way to go. Cabinet wait to join you in such a wonderful mile stone. Congrats.

Today I went shopping and got a 12/14 top and 16/18 pants sweat clothes. I was previously in a 3x!!!! That's Wild. Loving my sleeve.

Wow. You look great. Congrats

Hi I'm 5'6 starting weight was 266lbs. 2/27 sleeve date and today's weight is 230. I also did 6 months of Nut visits before surgery. I am enjoying my sleeve at 7 weeks out. Good luck

I was sent home with Prilosec and was able to take my vitamin D since day 5. Now I also take other vitamins with absolutely no problems. I have not taken my Celebrex for my knee arthritis since before surgery to my surprise i have not needed them.

Congrats

I was tired up to now 7 weeks out. So Major Surgery does take some time to recover from. Blessings

Sorry that this happen to you. You are not a failure. I'm praying for you.
