Ahhh.. I promise it will get better. . You are still very early out. At my three week stall I felt the same way but now I can almost watch it fall off... now just waiting for the next inevitable stall

Prayers to all!

Good luck.. you'll do great. And fyi my kids, 16 & 11, took such good care of the house and me.. they felt special to be able to help me so much. They'll do great too

You look fabulous!

I don't regret it... ever. It's been so much easier and so much harder all att the same time. I have some type of bug right now and was throwing up earlier. .. sigh.. the only difference for me is before sleeve throwing up sucked. Now its kinda scarry. And believe me the constipation thing is very real! I was sleeved 10/21 and still in the learning prosses. It takes time. Sometimes I too get mad when my body is hungry or thirsty but I just can't get anything else down. But it's honestly the very best thing I could have done for myself and my family and I feel blessed everyday to have been given this gift and blessed to have the support from the folks on this forum. Good luck

You look absolutely stunning

Omg I was excited to start this today (better late than never) but I caught some kind of bug and have been wretching instead. The way my abs feel it feels like I did about 150 crunches... poor me

So one week after surgery my husband lost his job along with our ins. I lost the ability to pay for my depression and ADD meds. I've been on them for over 10 years! Over the last few weeks I've been weening myself off slowly. I haven't taken any since Saturday. I can't stop crying and I feel like crap and totally hopeless right now. My husband got a new job but there is a 6 month waiting period for ins. So there's nothing I can do about it. To top it all off I got really sick yesterday for the first time and haven't felt good since. I'm really scared.. I don't know if I can do this without my meds. I feel like such a weepy loser right now. Sorry for rambling

Thank you so much. I appreciate your kind words

Congratulations! !! Good for you

You look amazing! !

You may not be eating enough

Whell, how much are you eating?

I never find these challenges until way late! I'm starting tomorrow (as it's just about 11pm)

Hi! I was just wondering if everyone would be willing to post their stats and average weekly loss since surgery? Just curious : I'm about 5'5" HW 250 SW 236 CW 213 Average loss since surgery 3.5 lbs per week (not including pre op). Sleeved 10/21

Soo embarrassing! Between my stomach having it's own microphone at times and the hiccups I'm like a walking body-noises embarrassment

I needed a good laugh!!!

Thanks butter!

Ok.. so do you just do one or do you do it like 3 Times or something?

Arg!!! I just found this thread but I want to play! Just did first plank.. 21s.. hmmm

Good for you! Can't wait to get there myself

Awesome! !!

It was just to lighten the mood but seriously. .. you are still very early out and the first few weeks are the hardest. We all experience all kinds of weird things early on. My guess is like most of the other things thiss too shall pass. If it's a major concern I would talk to your surgeon, that's what they're there for. When I was about where you are I had regrets too but be careful because you can really sabotage your success with regrets. Try to understand that these things will get better with time and healing. Good luck

Wow! You all are doing amazing! Thanks for sharing

Wow! You've maintained that loss for a lot ov lbs! When were you sleeved?
