  1. Hello everyone it's been awhile yesterday was my 6 month anniversary. Was 240 now I'm 192 I think it's great not losing too fast or slow. But to answer your question my hair actually is growing more idk y but I'm not stressing don't worry I think u will be fine . Good luck
  2. Is anyone drinking seltzer n how does it effect them? Was sleeved 1/8 n start weight 240 current 194 I'm not really hungry n I just want to drink some seltzer . I'm in a stall same weight for 30 days I'm freaking out. Nutritionist said that my weight is right on n if I lose any faster then they would worry but it's getting hotter n I want to break out the skinny jeans n shorts. Any advice on how to break this stall n please advice on the seltzer.
  3. Surgery was 1/8/13 n I'm still having heartburn is anyone out there with the same problem?

    Just venting

    Thank you Kathy I know it's a stall but its getting hot in NYC n all I see are skinny girls showing belly buttons. I would never do that but you feel so fat even though I'm losing. I'm going to see my nutritionist today n see about going on liquid diet again just to get this stall moving n get rid of acid reflux.
  5. I was sleeved on 1-8-13 surgery weight 240 I am now 195. I've been at this weight for 6 weeks now I'm so disappointed. My regular pcp said that this is normal. My nutritionist said the same. If I lose any faster they would worry but I'm thinking I should be at least 180-175 what do u think ??? I'm blessed I know too have made it through with no complications n I'm just human feeling like I needed to get this off my chest I've been holding it in for a long time now.Does anyone else feel this way???

    Hi I'm blessings I wanted u to know that everyone has been where u r the protein shakes r going to take awhile for u to handle. After I got sleeved every smell or taste made me want to gag. If j have to hold your nose so that u won't smell it just might work n take very small sips. I held my nose but I got it in . Everyone is different I wish u luck n let me know how it turns out.

  14. I recently just started making myself vomit it was something I use to do before surgery n I stopped over a year now. I can't understand y I'm doing this again I have an idea that maybe it's cause my stomach feels so full all the time. Has anyone experience this or do I need to speak to my surgeon?? PLEASE SEND ME YOUR ANSWERS
  15. Thank u for the advice I'm waiting for my nurse to return my call so I'm going to drink water cause I'm scared to eat anything until I have BM I really think I'm constipated its causing me to fill do full that I'm vomiting my food up . Something needs to come out so something can go in.????
  16. I think I'm eating to fast but I've noticed I haven't been having any BM in the last 4 days could that be it?

    U are so welcome Ms. Virtue the ice pops are great n I chew them too makes u feel like your chewing on substance those liquids will get boring. I know exactly what your talking about when u say your taste buds change . I used to love the juices n now I'm all water so we all change n don't get me started on smells I run from things I used to love lol. I'm not a big coffee drinker either especially since I walked into Starbucks n saw the prices I'm good on that. I've been eating some strange things I actually love Jerky n u get your protein in so try that it really helped me I couldn't keep anything down as far as meats but for some reason my sleeve loved it. My pcp loved the idea she just said watch how much cause it does have sodium but it comes in turkey n teriyaki BBQ it's great . So I'll chat with u later Peace n Love n many Blessings to u on your journey n in your life.
