My Endocrinoligist said it should help,but if not there are other ways like metformin medication . hopefully the surgery itself will.. 3 months put nd nothing yet. sorry.

Hi DeAnna, My surgery was Dec16th13.i had lost 15 lbs before surgery then i was 3weeks post op nd lost 18 lbs then the forth week past nd nothing ,i started getting fustrated myself .my Dr. kept saying my body is still healing nd its going to take time. yesterday i weighed myself same exact weight . i got down. then i weighed myself this morning nd i lost 3lbs from yesterday morning . so i was very happy. but this forum will tell us don't go by the weight go by our clothes nd our inches . did u measure urself before surgery i did. nd I'm getting smaller....even if the scale kept reading different . I'll say this.... this surgery is teaching patients ! congrats on ur surgery .

It's interesting how differently I'm treated these days
laurivgs replied to pinkpeonies's topic in The Lounge
I am a month late. but this sleeve is going to be such a blessing for me.my co-worker's hide food from me. i don't even like eating infront of people.my boss thinks she's helping me by saying that's to much temptation for her we need to move the snacks from her office . i go home crying sometimes. so I'm hoping things change for me like they did for u. congrats on the nomination !! -
Now that's a great mom! I love doing things like that to my kiddos.
