I'm 6 months out and my calorie goal is 1200 daily . I exercise 6 times per week. I have stalls too , we all do . Please tell me more about your exercise routine ? Congrats on your 55 lbs

Hi please never use the word "only lost " instead say I lost 7 lbs . I think 7 lbs is a lot in 2 weeks . Try to not compare yourself with others . We are all different . Is funny how much we want this weight to come off so fast but it took us years to put the extra weight on . The weight will come off , do not stress yourself . Stick with the sleeve rules and you will success. One day at a time . You are doing fantastic , good luck .

I'm a free lance photographer and I have done weddings etc . This idea that you are having came up into my mind a few months ago . I think is the perfect idea for a photographer . Go on , you will do great

I agree with Pdxman. I think you should take it easy . I did a 2 week Liquid diet after my surgey and then I started slowly with blended mushy foods. And just so you know mushy foods and liquids have not so much restriction as dense proteins so when you start you regular meats slowly , you will feel more restriction . Some people are lucky to tolerate almost any food after surgery, others not . To be sucesful with your sleeve you need to trust that you can do this first , never fear to fail . This is not an easy journey for sure . It requires a lifetime change commitment . Good luck

Good luck!!! Keep us post it about your progress

Good luck with your journey! Keep us posted it!

I haven't think about it before,but I think my insurance won't pay for it lol

Welcome and good luck with everything!

I am not using mine anymore as I got that Body Media Fit armband now my husband is using the fitbit and he loves it

This is my personal opinion I have the fitbit and is great gadget to keep you motivated as far as walking etc. Is an awesome pedometer . If you add friends with your profile on their website is really fun to see the steps you took daily and you can compete with others As for calorie counting and sleep tracking I prefer my Body Media Fit Armband Is a bit more pricey but the calorie count accuracy is better. This Body Media was approved by the FDA. It has 4 sensors that work with your skin sweat etc. It also tracks the steps etc. The only downside is that you have to pay $6.95 a month to see your stats on their website etc. The first 3 months are free. With the fitbit you have access to your daily stats for free. So in conclusion if you want something not too expensive and something that motivated you to walk and to exercise, the fitbit will be for you. If you want calorie count accuracy and sleep patterns accuracy, go with the Body Media Fit

I agree with Polly as well. I was in a LOT of chefs pain for the first days due to gas but if you think it gets unbearable please call your Dr

Yes,to be nervous is normal. I have a 2 year old, I was a bit nervous prior my surgery but you know what? the more calm and positive you do,the better you will do with the surgery recovery process. Just have faith and be positive,you are doing this for your daughter,to live longer and a healthy life. Best of luck!!

Usually the 3 week stall is the most common first one but you will have stalls often Don't worry,as always with hard work and dedication they shall pass

How about being lactose intolerant ?
