I don't know what has changed with my body but I'm loosing so much hair!! Every time I shower my hands are covered in hair!! What can I do to stop it??? Please help!

It might! That's when I have noticed it the most. When I colored my hair, and I even used a Demi permanent color, when I rinsed it out it was coming out in little clumps!! it seriously made me cry

I haven't even reached my goal weight and here are the things that have already hanged, and in only 4 short months! 1. I don't get out of breath when I walk up the stairs anymore!! 2. I can shop at regular stores and I actually enjoy it now! 3. I no longer feel like the fat girl in the room which is an AMAZING feeling. 4. I can wear boots now! My calfs used to be so big that boots wouldn't fit 5. My over all body image issues have seriously diminished! 6. I look in the mirror and for once I like what I see 7. I don't avoid going out with friends anymore because I have nothing to wear 8. No more unsolicited weight loss advice 9. I can shop at Victoria's Secret! 10. I just feel so much healthier! I wish I would have done this sooner! How is everyone else feeling!?

Thank you everyone! I've lost 60lbs so far.

Thank you!

I'm 4 months post op. It just started to get rely bad this week. And I'm a hair stylist so I CANNOT loose a lot of hair. Gotta look good at the job you know?

Before was 4 months ago. The after was a few days ago

I've been using a coco butter stick. Not slimy at all and it's super cheap! My stretch marks used to be red and now they are white

Before at 223 Post op 60 pounds gone Current weight is 160

Just a few days over 3 months post op and 50 lbs down. Only 38 more to go!

So tomorrow morning I am waking up bright and early and going to join the gym. I just want to know from other fellow sleevers, if you weren't into working out before your surgery, how did you get into it? And how did you get past that feeling of absolutely hating it?

So I am about 3 months post op and 50 lbs down which is great! What's not so great is my skin on my belly is starting to sag and same thing right under my love handles. Not sure what to do to make it shrink. I am only 22, thought my skin would have better elasticity!

I want to start working out to tone everything and loose the last 40 pounds. I'm not exactly sure what I expect to get out of it. I just want to be fit, and I want to eventually like working out.

2 months post op and down 40lbs. Pre op weight : 225 2 months post op : 183

I was a band to sleeve revision as well. Had my surgery in May 28. So I am almost 2 months out and down 40 pounds I think everyone has that buyers remorse feeling at first but trust me, when you see the weight fall off and the scale goes down almost every day, you will not regret it! I had so many issues with the band, I am definitely glad to be rid of it! How about you?

I am about a month post op and I have tried diet coke an had no issues. I couldn't drink too much of it but I didn't feel uncomfortable at all

Ever since my surgery I get dizzy a lot too. And weird, but I notice it the most when I go in the hot tub or take a hot shower. It never used to happen before and now it's a daily thing

So what do you do for it?

Called my dr office today and they said my nausea is probably from too much sugar. I was maybe having 5g a day in a few sips of juice but that's all. They said have absolutely zero sugar. Isn't that going to make my blood sugar low?

No. What are those?

So I'm a week and a half post op. all day today every time I try to have a shake or soup or even water I get really nauseas. Does anyone else have this problem? Calling my dr in the morning...just wondering if this is normal or not

Today marks 1 week post op. down 6 pounds since surgery and 14 since I started this journey. Having a hard time getting in all my protein a day. Also having trouble going to the bathroom. I put fiber in all my shakes. Does anyone else have this problem? And what are you doing for it? I really don't want to have to take laxatives all the time.

4 days post op and I haven't lost any weight. I am on all liquids. Am I doing something wrong?

I've also been doing Muscle Milk which I really like and the Dannon Oikos Greek yogurt has 12g of protein in 1 serving

Yes you could totally do that!
