That doesn't look like a lot but like you said I'm sure it is and I bet you feel the difference. I am so happy for you! Did you op for no a fake belly button or no belly button?

You look GREAT!!!! Is that your first pic post?! Keep em coming and let the comments continue to motivate you! You are doing awesome!

I think it helps because we used the good stuff and now that we are limited whatever we can use helps. I only take one too, but if I need a little extra I will take a second pill about an hour later. So glad it helped!!!

I have an apron and bat wings and I cringe at the sight of a full length mirror. But on some occasions (full clothed of course) I think I am cute and have covered my skin well. It's a mind game but still feels better than that extra 160 I was carrying around daily. Take the bad with the good

:') great pic! Speechless!

I don't have one but I do get headaches and was an avid Motrin 800 and excedrine drinker. I now only drink Tylenol, and surprisingly it helps! I drink one 500mg then one more 500mg an hour or so later. Good luck!

Hi! As a bypass girl myself I would say don't stock up on anything. Protein! Try everything first. Your taste will change. Get measuring cups. And be prepared to have mercy on yourself. The journey is hard but well worth it. You found a great support here. Questions, concerns, or rants... Feel free. I'm 13 months post op

I have a butt. Always did. I'm finding it isn't going anywhere. Lol but in fine with it as long as the scale goes down. I'm not hippy and my thighs aren't big. But I could see how that could scare you. Everyone is different. Don't let her journey take you off course

So I'm 13 months post op and as one who never felt full. I had to measure and eat slow!!!! I ate every 2-3 hours and I had to measure because I always felt like I could eat more. Well since Sunday I don't know what has changed but I'm beyond full all the time. As I write this out of confusion I'm sipping my morning coffee and sneezing and feel like I just had thanksgiving dinner *sneezing is my tall tale sign I'm full. Now I'm confused as to how this change happened does it take over a year for my nerves in my pouch to finally work? I'm about 4oz into my 8oz coffee. Familiar to anyone? It's been this battle with food lately and I'm not used to it.

Found this DL It sounds like she has developed gustatory rhinitis. This is amazingly more common than you think. A simple google search for “sneezing after eating” pulls up lots of similar complaints. I would venture to guess that this is related to her gastric bypass. By making her stomach extremely small during the bypass procedure, she somehow has become more sensitive to food (that is, when her small stomach stretches, it induces the sneezing, whereas before the procedure she had a much bigger stomach). She should speak to her doctor about this and see if she can try some medications to prevent this from happening. Good luck.

I don't understand the sneezing thing. It's unreal. I sneeze 3-5 times. At first it was weird now I just know, I'm full! There is no other sign until the sneezing starts. I know not to dare anymore!

Stress can be a factor in your stall. Just keep doing what your supposed to and give your body the time it needs to break this stall. Good luck on a great school year

I always feel like I can eat a horse (until recently) I told my surgeon it's the worse misconception about this surgery (at least mine!) that I wouldn't be hungry.

It's a weird sign lol but I sneeze and I'm like "oh I'm full"

More than anything I wanted to know its normal! I don't understand and it makes me feel crazy you've been much help!! Thanks

Sorry posted in pre. Moved it to post

You look like an entirely new person! Way to go Don!!!! You look great

Oh wow! Call ASAP you shouldn't feel them that low by no means!!! I think it's falling. Hope they get it fixed ASAP.

If it goes in (mouth) it goes down (log it) lol what I learned during my 12 week pre op course to qualify for surgery. Back to basics for me. Logging everything from food, Protein, Water and exercise. I've realized I've skipped meals and ate bad snack choices (cheez it's, uh I know!) and have stopped Protein shakes all together. I must remind you I'm going through a lot of life changes right now and high stress so I my health has been back burner. One month of bad bad bad routines and no gym but walking for stress relief. Horrible sleep and more than likely dehydration.... I'm back to logging and eating and working out. I'm still losing but by no means the right way. I keep saying its amazing what stress can do for your figure! LOL Based on logging: I need to eat every 2-3 hours, drink my protein shakes, yogurt and cheese sticks for snack. And water water water! chicken and turkey I'm all over it! Logging works!

Keep the pics posted! Your pics are great. Thanks. I'm truckin along trying to get out of the 2's lol

That's amazing! Way to go!!! can't wait to see that # on my scale!!!! Happy Friday!

I can't even finish a hard boiled medium egg. I get BAD stomach pains that eventually turns to a full/discomfort feeling that last forever. And then turns to gas. I have stayed away for a longtime. Never understood how I can eat 1/2 of something could eat more if I tried. And can't finish a medium egg??! Weird!

If your feeling for them you will feel them. I've had mine in for 14 months love it will feel for it every now and then.... Normal but if it feels like its coming out call your dr.

I can not believe how absolutely amazing you look!!!!! You have been such an inspiration to me and my journey and this pic is ridiculously motivational. Your before pic is very vivid in my memory and now, stunning! Hats off to you! Xx
