Wow in 10 days ur down 43 lbs that's amazing. Makes me more bummed though cuz yesterday I was sleeved on 4/1 so I'm 2 wks post op n I've only lost 13lbs as of Saturday :-( Congrats!!!

I'm weighing my self everyday now since sat n the scale doesn't seem to be moving I'm getting scared I'm doing something wrong

I'm pretty disappointed right now I was sleeved on Monday 4/1 n on Saturday 4/6 I was 10 lbs down from the previous Saturday (I only weigh my self once a wk) and today 4/13 I was only 1.3 lbs down :-( ugh so disappointing. I introduced soft foods on Thursday (cleared by surgeon to start earlier than 2 wks) I'm wondering if I didn't lose pretty much anything either because I started soft foods or I'm PMSing really bad. Altogether with pre op I've lost 20lbs

That's amazing!!! How much weight did u loose?? I'm 2 wks out n I think I've stalled :-( You look great!!! Congrats

Oh my I just read about the leak I will be praying for you!!!

Don't get discouraged cuz I did :-( I was sleeved on 4/1, yesterday I was 2 weeks out n I weighted myself on Saturday n I only have lost 13lbs since surgery I was so disappointed (not to mention I stared my period on Saturday so I was kinda emotional) lol but hopefully I will start seeing more weight drop as other peeps have lost 20+ on their first 2 wks my journey has not been so. I hope once I'm off my period I will notice the difference. Also I started soft foods on Thursday so I think that's part of my stall :-(

Yesterday I was 2 wks post op (surgery 4/1) n I've been sleeping on my stomach since the April 6. I was a bit scared at first but lil by lil I moved from side to stomach to see how much I can tolerate n finally I was after a few days I was able to do it. It's great sleeping on my stomach now

I'm exactly 2 wks post op today. And I introduced soft foods beginning Thursday afternoon but I have been getting my 64 oz of water in since my first week. What I'm afraid is that I am able to down a little bit more than half the 16oz bottle of water with out feeling that pressure. Did my stomach stretch :-( I'm scared I'm taking in too much water but I love my water...

That's pretty much what I'm doing that's why I was scared that I might be stretching the new stomach n not to mention I can tolerate a lil over half of a 16oz water with no problem

Tuna and it was yummy yes I was done with the shakes n I still have a huge bag for those on the go days lol

Old habits r hard to break lol but yes I try to stop myself when I remember. I try to keep in mind to sip sip sip sip. Thanks for replying I was getting concern why I can have so much water without bothersome

Hi everyone... A lil concern on taking vitamins. I was sleeved on 4/1 and yesterday my surgeon gave me clearance to have soft foods. Everything was great up until today. This morning I had my "bariatric advantage multi vitamins chewables" and as I'm driving to my destination I had to pull over to throw up a lot :-( I composed n cleaned up myself because I had to be somewhere for a short period of time but once I got home to shower I've been feeling under the weather not sure why. I didn't eat prior to taking vitamins I didn't think it was necessary N I think I would have been more sick. What are u guys doing to take vitamins today was my first trial n I'm scared to try again

I too was sleeved on 4/1 and last night I was up till 3 am couldn't sleep at all whatsoever :-( this afternoon I've been very tired but I have to finish up my laundry hoping to go to bed by 10:30 the latest as tmrw will be my first day back to work after surgery. Also last nite n tonight I took my Vitamins at nite because Friday I threw them up when I had them in the morning I hope the vitamins are not the ones keeping us awake... I need sleep tonite

Well it makes me feel better I'm not the only one... Thanks for sharing

I guess I just need to give it a lil more time... It's true my body is outta wack right now ugh just felt frustrated this morning. But thank u guys for the support n explanations. I joined this forum after post surgery n I guess I didn't do my full research prior to surgery. It all happened so fast for me my insurance approved it so quick and stressed out with getting my work caught up I never had enough time to completely research and read about other people's experiences. I'm soooo glad I found this site during my recovery time prior to going back to work on Monday :-)

I tried having my vitamins right before bed time n no nauseous feeling nor throwing up. I might just finish my BA brand n try some of the other stuff u guys have suggested. Anyway what's important is that we get all our vitamins right!!! Not the brands that make us sick so hopefully BA won't give me a hard time in canceling their automatic refill program I started with them...

Is biotin over the counter??? I'm currently using "ovation hair therapy" so far I have the same amount of hair loss as pre op so I'm hoping its working... But I know wanna try this pill

.

Hopefully this product does work. I already have thin hair to begin so I'm trying to prevent more hair loss

I had heard about the hair loss so a few days post op I started using "ovation hair therapy (keeping my fingers crossed it works) so far I still have the same amount of hair loss I had pre op so

I hope it's just my period that has me bloated grrrr lol I guess cuz I'm reading everyone's awesome weight loss the first 2 wks. Man I wish women didn't have this once a month deal thang that holds us back lol

Ya my first wk I lost 10 lbs n today I weighed my self n I only lost 1.3lbs this wk n was disappointed. But frm preop I've lost a total of 20

What about u

Only 11.3 :-( I will be 2 wks out on Monday 4/15 I was sleeved on Monday 4/1

Deputy I'm going to keep that in mind but I just spent a pretty penny on bariatric advantage brand n ugh made me sick MrsG ya imma try eating something tomorrow before vitamins actually I think I wanna try taking them at night Logan ugh it must be the brand yes I was so sick all morning n now scared to try again but I knw I need my vitamins :-(
