I am March 10. Down 47 pounds and on another stall!!! It seems stalls want to happen often for me. I am happy for the loss but discouraged on how little I have lost. I see so many others with better results. I am 7 pounds away from onederland and feel it is so hard to reach. Then I will be on my way to my next loss goal. I have so far to go and worry what if I am never small.

I am 5 months out and only have lost 47 pounds. Seeing how much you have lost so quickly has me happy for you but sad for me.

Nuvaring Users - Did you take it out?
Skittles00 replied to VSGLiz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I took mine out a week before surgery. Then about 3weeks after I finally put it back in. They told me a week after surgery I could put it back but I wasn't in desperate need of it -

I have read a lot of people have trouble with straight water. It's like you have to change the balance of it with flavor. That is so strange. We are our own worst critic! You have done awesome on the numbers. I wish I started measuring my body when I had the surgery. I am glad you clothing sizes have shrank. I have the wings, they will need some cosmetic so I have set up the find me under me savings account lol. -
March 2014 sleevers
Skittles00 replied to Skittles00's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have the large arms, tire around belly and big legs... I know that I will need to have skin removed from each when said and done. Just have to keep working to get there... My hair has been shedding badly starting a week ago... We got ladies! Let's keep each other updated and continue progress updates. -

Any March sleevers want to share their progress? -
I am 3 months and was 34 pounds down hit a stall and started gaining. 3-4 pounds. The stall I can handle, the weight gain has me discouraged. Is occasional gain expected? RJ will say a prayer for you! I see you post often and you rock!!

I understand that there are stalls but does anyone gain while stalled? Just a little worried.

Why am i feeling this way
Skittles00 replied to LaurieC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had that happen when I went out to eat at first after my surgery. I learned I was eating too quickly and it would has me feeling horrible like you described. It was scary. My daughter and I actually would go out to eat so I could practice and now I am very careful and able to enjoy dinner out and not feel horrible. I hope it gets better for you. Sleeved March 10,2014 -
I know we have stalls but I think I'm broken...or just impatient...IDK!
Skittles00 replied to KeeWee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Gallbladder - Complication of Surgery
Skittles00 replied to BookWorm's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I lost a lot of weight a couple years after I had my daughter taking phentramine pills, the weight came off quickly then I got pains and had to get hall bladder removed. During support prior to this surgery they mentioned gall bladder issues but I ignored it due to not having one. You may want to check with dr about it -
