I know this may be tmi but I was sleeved 1/23/13 I've lost 89 pounds but 2 days after I was sleeved my peroid started and I had my peroid all the way till april 12th that was the longest 3 1/2 months of my life. My ob said it was from my hormones and the weightloss. I was even on the depo shot to try and stop it. They finally did a d&c to make it stop. But from what I hear this is normal. That was the worst part of this whole adventure. But I don't regret it. Has anyone else had this problem?

I can honestly say I use to hate exercise but since the sleeve 1/23 I joined the gym with a year membership and somedays I can't wait to get to the gym and other days you have to pry me off the couch. But just losing the 91 pounds I have I feel I owe it to my body to tone up and exercise. I do drink VERY little pop almost everyday but that's my limit. You can't feel completely torn from the high calories u do need to reward yourself along the way. I refuse to try chocolate or any junk food I just assume it will make me sick because I really don't want to know because I don't wanna put myself in that situation. I did try some icecream but threw it away after 2 bites because I didn't want to make myself sick or like it to much to make myself want it all the time. I did notice my weight loss slowed down alot since I added some pop daily but I don't wanna feel like I can't be like others and enjoy. I know its hard but deep down inside u have to really want to change your ways of eating. I have my mind set and will only allow myself to go so far. My boyfriend eats fast food a lot and it actually makes me sick now. Good luck and I can try to help in anyway possible.

January 23rd and I've lost 89 pounds. I can honestly say that my membership to the gym has gotten me this far. My sleeve is the best thing that's ever happened to me.

I waited just until my scars healed up which was about a month after I was sleeved and I tan 3 times a week for 20 minutes and I will say my stomach and chest get the darkest!
