Tomorrow will be 3 full months after being sleeved. The first 4 weeks I was worried I made a bad choice and had depression from feeling so weak and not adjusting to the new life. I also was convinced I had an herniated incision from vomiting after surgery. Today I look back and just say wow I have come so far in such a little time frame. I am 5'3" and started out at 232 pounds and size 15. Today I'm still short ( lol) but I'm in a size 10 and getting baggy and weight in at 178 pounds. Now I want to shop shop shop. I make up for eating like that lol. My smile seems brighter and I want to get out more. I don't have an appetite to really speak of. My day today was Protein Shake in the morning, two small hard boiled eggs for lunch, light cheese stick for afternoon snack and dinner was stir fry veggies with chicken and some shrimp. About 3/4 of a cup was all I could eat. I drink a lot of Water and zero sugar lifewater. I'm having lots of acid reflux. I hiccup all the time. Outside from that I'm doing pretty darn good!!! Here is my before pic and me two weeks after surgery. I'm still 43 pounds from my goal. [ATTACH]17233[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]17232[/ATTACH]

Well thank you! I wish you the best and just remember it does get better!!!

I find that if I do not take my acid reducer, I get that feeling I'm hungry but I'm not really hungery.

My first day in the hospital was tough. I found I can't have morphine and I was very nauseated. The gas pain was the worst! They gave me a disposable heating pad for the pain. That worked and so did resting. The second day and a shower was wonderful. I really did not find the extreme right side pain go away until the third week. I'm three months post and finally getting lots of energy hang in there!!!!

I had my surgery May 21, 2013 and down 52 pounds. However I'm stuck at my current weight of 180 pounds What foods should I be eat, how much and frequency. I have been stuck here for 3 weeks.

Thank you!! I'm hoping to keep the success and lose more. Thanks for the link!!!
