Recently I had a little fall off..I've lost a total of 50lbs since Dec. 14th which is the day I was sleeved. That is the good thing, well as of the last 2 days I've had sort of a back slide, I stopped working out and I ate crazy, I had a donuts and a few sips of soda, I feel horrible, I ate a twinkie, popcorn with butter , a beef pattie, and 4 cookies. I couldn't stop for some reason, I need to get back into the gym. I think I've been so depressed about the slow weight loss that I trashed myself. BUt yesterday I went to a bike night at a local bar with my husband and saw a girl I used to hang out with who is like 100lbs, and a trainer and she said OMG you look amazing have you lost like 50lbs, and I was like yes how did you know? She was like you look great I can tell...I know it's shallow but it's what I needed to wake up and get back to where I was. So I'm back to the gym today back to my drinking water and diet tea and eating my chicken salads and healthy food...

I'm trying, all I keep doing is looking at my goal weight and the fact that after 10 years of trying to have a baby we might finally be able to achieve that goal if the weight keeps coming off....

Thanks for the help, I had a bad week, from a death in our family to just being overworked and tired and not properly taking care of myself. It's hard when there is so much temptation but I have a plan now and I'm focusing, I just need to find healthier snacks, lately I've been so hungry and unfortunately the throwing up is back where I can't keep anything down again which is so annoying....

Finally the scale is moving after 1.5 months of nothing I'm down an additional 5.4 lbs. this week.... My goal weight is 125 lbs. I'm 5 feet 3 inches tall so that would make me happy. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 10 years and nothing has happened and they say it was due to my weight I started out at 288 lbs on dec.14 th and today I now weigh 244.6 lbs. it's moving slow I work out I walk do Zumba cardio, try to eat but I throw up a lot eggs and bacon are torture for me, fish is the only thing I can stomach. I do slim fast two meals a day and eat dinner low sugar slim fast. Does anyone else have any weight loss tips?

I do my fitness pal, it says I'm under goal what does everyone stick to as far as calories? Do you eat your calories or never hit the goal for some reason my calories is 1500 which I feel is really high....

The nurse wants me to eat 1000-1200 calories I eat like 500 but I also work out

I have spoken to the doctor no real answers. I do slim fast right now only because I can't eat weight loss finally picking up..... Since I don't eat no vomiting

I'm on the same track as you I can't eat hardly anything without constantly vomiting it's nuts I'm hoping it gets better

Ok I will talk to them again

My doctor only wants me to drink water and crystal light... No extra juices sometimes I think this is to confusing

Thanks everyone because I have been struggling I think I'm going to use weight watchers to

Has anyone had a baby since surgery? My husband and I have been trying for 9 years.... I was sleeved December 14th lost 40 lbs. so far, I know I have to wait at least a year I was just wondering if there were any success stories? I'm working out daily... 1 hour a day , every day I'm still stuck in this stall, I do slim fast thinking about doing weight watchers also...

How do I add that weight loss tracker to these posts?

I figured that my issue is that my doctor didn't give me a set calories and he's so busy so I'm trying to find out what other people eat drink how many calories I eat three times a day but I work out and I get nauseous a lot so not much stays down

I feel sort of lost in this sleeve world, I started out trying to get the DS but because of my thyroid cancer I was told I could only get sleeved for right now. I started out at a pre op weight of 288 and I now weigh 251 , my surgery was Dec. 14th, I'm feeling not as successful because it will be 2 months and I haven't lost a lb since January 14th, has anyone else had this slow down is this normal? I don't eat sugar, fat, i throw up a lot due to stuff not staying down and I drink all day water, milk and crystal light....I excercise for 1 hour a day and the weight is still not coming off..starting to feel like it might have been a mistake.

How do I add this ticker factory to show weight loss? Does anyone know?

Is anyone else doing slim fast or weight watchers? I am doing slim fast to help things along but I was thinking about jumping over to weight watchers to to see if that helps

It's annoying with the vomiting, the only thing that stays down is fish and popcorn, which is a weird combination. Nothing else agrees with me, I vomit everything else....It's like my body hates food...I try to drink all day but I drink a lot of milk like 4 glasses a day because sometimes water even bothers me, the only way I can keep stuff down as far as liquids is that they have to be extremely cold, never room temperature. I did talk to my doctor, no real concise answer because I have no strictures at all...I'm trying to step up my cardio routines and work out more but I'm so tired from vomiting, and working out that I have no energy for anything else and I'm staying at this 251 weight which is upsetting me
