4 weeks out, but barely any weight loss in the last 2 weeks.... !?!?
melissa411 replied to NickiTriesAgain's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hey Hun I'm in my 5th week out I also stalled about the beganing of my 3rd week. But now I'm lossing again. Eat really soft food! Your body has to break it down. You can also try to change up what you are doing for example if ur eating carbs stop if ur not then add a few. You need to trick your body a lil. Have a day of liquid only, I know it's hard but it will be worth it. It is completely normal to stall where you are. Hang in there!! -
Stretch marks and boobs question
melissa411 replied to NewAshes's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been sleeved for a month. I have been using coco butter the type u use when your preg. It won't take them away but it had been helping them fade. The ones on my arms aren't as noticeable. And as you get smaller it helps keep the skin stay moisterized. Also I take 5000mg biotin for my skin and hair. Hopefully this helps you. And my doc says drinking water helps with skin to. -

Today is my 2nd day liquid as well. It's been hard but I feel the worst part is the gas pain. And it's hard for me to tell if its gas or real pain! -

I had less then u do and my date is April 11th just do what the surgeon tells you they know what you will need. Plus they lowered the bmi to 35. It's nerve reckon I went through it and my husbands job changed insurence so I actually had to do 3 months more. It takes time but its worth it. Hold your head up and remember you goals..
