I am pretty sure my doctor used a 36. I am 10 weeks tomorrow, and can eat 1oz of Protein to be full, 1.5 oz and I am stuffed. I have a lot of restriction still. I was able to eat more but around week 7 my restriction changed. I think my nerves healed and I can tell when I am full sooner. I use to be able to drink an 11oz shake with no issues. Now I have to split it a couple hours apart. I really think it all depends on your stomach and individual healing.

Hey Guys, I haven't been on here in a couple weeks but I am glad to see everyone is doing well. I will be 10 weeks tomorrow and all thought I thought I was a slow loser, it's coming off in spurts. I am excited for my next apt. I already have a huge change in energy. Yesterday I ran home with my kids from the pool. my husband had the car to drive us home but I wanted to run with the boys instead. The old me would have taken the car home. I am also starting train for a couple 5ks. Hope everyone is doing great!!!!

Do you have a tailor? I wear a pant suit uniform at work and have had it altered 3 times already. It started at a 30 and now it's altered down to a larger 20. I have also taken in my other pants.

8 weeks and down 53.1 lbs

Mine started two days post op, it was due and pretty normal. However my last one was sure heavy and lasted 2-3 days longer then normal.

Hey guys, I haven't been on here too much anymore but I thought I would update. Surgery was 2/4 and I am currently down 48 pounds. ( 21 pre-op and 27 post) I haven't noticed too much of a difference yet but I have had to alter my uniform for work twice. I am able to eat more and my hungry has returned. I started taking an acid reducer today in hopes I am feeling acid and not hunger. I also quit losing for awhile and the drop like crazy. As of right now, I've been playing with the same pound for 4 days. Going to join a gym and try an kick start all of this. Hope everyone is doing well

MIlk of magnesia to move things along quick. Follow up with miralax, one dose a day until things are too soft. Then move to every other day. Then every third day. Since using miralax I've been able to go everyday.

While we all know the risks, it doesn't make hearing this type of news any easier. I will be praying for his family during this very difficult time. May you rest in peace.

I would tell all my doctors. If it was spread around I would hire a lawyer. hippa laws are in place for this reason. What if you have a complication during surgery. If they run a blind tube they could kill you.

It looks like everyone is doing awesome their first month. Can you believe we did it? All those fears and sleepless nights worrying gone. I just want to say how proud I am to all the sleevers. You made the decision to change your life and you followed through. Be proud of yourselves!!!! I did have a major scale victory today. My first life stage goal. Today I am my pre-pregnancy weight of my second son. 10lbs until my next LS goal which is my pre-pregnancy of my 1st.

If I eat a bar it's a Quest Protein bar. They are the cleanest bar you will be able to find. For shakes I drink the premiere protein. You can buy them at SAMs, costco and I've read Kroger.

I had this experience this past weekend. My weight loss slowed way down. This weekend I ate with my family and didn't stress about my carbs. I had 1/5 sandwich, a 2 oz noodles and some other carbs and I started losing again. I plan to keep my carbs higher now.

Sleeved 2/4: 42.6 total Starting weight/highest weight: 315 Surgery weight: 294 1 month: 276 Today: 272.4 I slowed way down and even gained one week. It started to pick back up the last 3 days. Right now I am 7.5 pounds from my surgeons goal of 30% loss by May.

I also weigh daily, it's pretty bad since I have a withings scale. It will link to my app on my phone and computer, also my lose it app I use to track calories, carbs, protein. I keep telling myself I am not going to weigh but it never happens. I did start only logging my Monday weights in my book, along with my measurements and it helps me not feel as nutty.

I have been having one every morning, today it didn't want to go down. I did half and the waited about 30 minutes and finished. It was gagging me every time I swallowed. I was wondering if something changes from my last box to this one.

Has anyone heard from Susan? She had the leak, i tried searching but didn't see any posts, just wanted to see how she is doing.

Diva, how are you feeling?
