You are not alone! I am 16 weeks out and still have mind games and anger issues. I just walk away and lock myself in my room. it is sad that some days I can't even stand myself. My kids are secretly wishing mom wont be a b***h anymore I'm sure!

I just cut mine all off last week!!!!

I am 3 months out and still feel that way! I don't like to eat, I would rather drink my meals. I force feed myself a lean cuisine every few days just for flavor. And even then I only eat the meat from it! You are not alone!

I go to good will and get 2 pair of jeans at a time. I wear them till they don't stay on! Then I spend an hour fishing threw them all and pick the 2 cutest jeans... sometimes I'm lucky and find designer jeans in my size! And they are already comfy and broke in! LoL

I am a 2 lb. A week loser too! I agree even though I get my water and protein in... I still feel I am doing better than most (non wls people) I get on my treadmill every morning for 3 miles. Somedays I run half a mile then walk just to get things moving along... I don't care how long it takes me, 3 miles is my personal goal every day. I am also 3 months out and have been a slow loser since week 3! You are not alone!!!

I was on protein drinks as soon as I came home from the hospital too. At week on everyone of them made me sick. I mean SICK! I called my dr. They said to lay off of them and try non dairy shakes. I gave my self a week then went to UNjury mixed with water and was fine. Now I mix it with skim milk and warm them. If I drink cold protein I get sick again. However if its warmer than room temp. I can drink it! My body accepts warm much better than cold!

My tiny tummy doesn't do cold very well! I crave chex rice cereal but just can't do it? Its so sad! I was sleeved in October

This happen to me the first few weeks postop I only took showers when my husband was home. I made him sit on the toilet while I took a QUICK shower! I am better now thank goodness!

Roxy Have you heard anything yet? How are things going for you?

Outstanding!!!! Amazing job!

I wish I had that problem. All but one friend have left my side. As soon as I passed their weigh there when the friendship! I have the one friend left whom is about 140lbs. Since I'm not there yet she is still my friend. I expect her to leave and not be my friend once I pass her. Just assume its going to happen I guess.

I am 3 months out and can eat no more than 1/3 cup of anything!!! I get full and miserable! I am still eating just meat because I have no room for veggies yet. When I eat pudding or yogurt its no more than a 1/4 cup at a time. I get full fast!

I am losing like crazy too! I lose alot in the shower... waiting on the drain to clog any day now! I cut my hair in an interesting pixie cut... it looks like the lady in the movie dinner for schmucks. Saw her hair and fell in love! My hair was just beyond my shoulders and was getting supper thin looking in the front. When my hair is short it has a slight wave and body to it. Now it doesn't look as thin. Figured I will keep it short for about a year, then try to regrow it. Oh and I'm 3 months out.

I was told to wait 3 months because of the acidity in coffee could upset the new tummy. Whether decaf or not...

I am also a slow loser. I have been at a stall for the last 2 weeks!!! I was sleeved 10-22-12, I am so happy that I have had this done. I am still trying to learn what is satisfied and what is full... I am struggling with this one! Also I need to learn to slow down on eating! I still eat fast then get so uncomfortable.

For those looking to have this done and wanting info on what weight loss looks like... Check out my stats for the last 2 1/2 months. I am 11 weeks out. I had my surgery on the 22nd of October. I was looking on here for information before my surgery and never found anything like this. I hope it helps someone out there!

No worries! I'm glad someone could see the numbers there in black and white! If I didn't keep track I would drive myself crazy. I am one I see the scale move but the mirror tells me a different story...

I have slowed way down in my losing! I'm 5 feet and 3/4 inch!!! I started at 209 (when approved for surgery) Surgery day 198 (10-22-12) Today 166 I am at my second stall have been here at this weight for a week.

OK I have had this on my to make for about 2 months... I just made it. And it is spicy for my tiny tummy! My kids and husband love it though!!!! I did mine quick on the stove in under 10 min!!! Served the fam Bam theirs with chips and non fat shredded cheese and they are all happy campers! This is a quick meal stove top!

I too had hernia repair and my acid reflux only comes when I eat something my tiny tummy doesn't like! If I keep the flavors simple I have no more reflux. I did take a prescription for it for a while before and for a month after surgery. I was given a liquid reflux Med for immediate relief from my WLD.

I am back to basics on my own trying to get Protein and fluids in. Yes I had a 6 month waiting period. Went pretty quick. I started my journey in March was done in Sep. Had surgery in Oct! I am going through depression about not being able to eat. Never thought I would, however, I am. I have lost just a bit over 40 lbs. Enjoy your new year! I hope you have a happy one!!!! Let me know what happens!
