Got my period 2nd day in hospital postop. Since I don't have "bad" periods it was fine. Now I can really keep track of my cycle cause I'll never forget the date!
-
In 7 days I'll be 3 months out from surgery...58 pounds down & loving it...I work in advertising & we get lots of gifts this time of year from clients. The reason I'm posting is pre-surgery I was an avid chocoholic! Right next to me on my desk is a gigantic "dark chocolate pizza" that I would've demolished. It's doing NOTHING for me now. YAY.....love this feeling.....
-
I definitely shocked myself. You have no idea what a chocolate & carb fiend I was before surgery...& now - nada! Pretty cool. Thanks guys. Just had to share.

Yes I've been taking a multi & also calcium citrate along with vitamin D3 since surgery, but I guess whatever's in the multi for B12 wasn't enough. Everything else was perfect except that. Just very surprised that's all. When I told him how good I felt he said with levels that low, I would eventually start to feel bad. Glad we caught it early. Thanks guys!

Had my 3 month bloods drawn this past weekend. Let me first say since sleeved on 9/17 I've never had a weak day. Have felt great. Lots if energy. Doctor just called & said my B-12 levels were extremely low & I have to come in for shots once a month & also take supplements. Freaking.

Do you think taking Fiber Gummies expand the belly in any way? I just started them this week & they work (if you get my drift)..I would hate to give them up if they're not good for the sleeve

Thanks! The bm's are not every day, so I've been adding fiber gummies to try to regulate a bit. Who knows! I'll wait it out & see what happens. -

Who Were You Before Vsg?
cmaloney replied to happyfam's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Pre sleeve I was a carb addict. Pasta, pizza, hero sandwiches...ham,egg & cheese with butter in massive bagel.,I are like a football player! NEVER thought I could give this up...Post sleeve - it never crosses my mind. I love the smell, but that's it. I'd rather eat my tuna with balsamic dressing. (Was such a mayo Freak & now it's blah.....if I can do this without feeling deprived, so can you. Tomorrow will be 8 weeks & I'm down 43 pounds... -
Just wondering if you veterans still have to take small bites & chew it well? Thanks!

Anxiety Centering In The Stomach--2 Years Out
cmaloney replied to ncbec's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also suffer (over 30 years) & I always wake up with a shaky stomach. I'm so used to it now.... -
Welcome! I'm Christine & was sleeved on 9/17. Best decision of my life. Started 2 day pre- op at 267. Day of surgery 262 & today almost 8 weeks out 218! So happy you're joining us!
-
Congrats! So glad all went well! Best decision of my life & now I'm sure yours..
-
Thanks guys.. I guess I need to adjust my eating habits when I know my period is coming... Very strange!
-
I don't know about you, but ever since my sleeve (9/17), period was heavy & lasted longer than usual. Another thing I noticed is a week before I'm due, my sleeve is super-sensitive to everything I eat, no matter what it is...happened last month & it's happening now. Anyone else?

Hmmm I Have Noticed A Change!

Bawse52... Thanks for that! You made me crack up laughing along with Grammys response... -
So sorry for your hurricane damage. I'm in Franklin Square. We lost power & had a lot of trees down. Still much luckily than most. Please hang in there. It sounds like a broken record, but it does get easier. Like so many on this site I wish I did it years earlier... Loving my "Sleevie Nicks"- yes I've named her.... Good luck!
