Hey guys I'm dealing with what I assume is acid related nausea. Has anyone else had this issue?

I had a rash on my face shortly after the procedure. As I got my nutrients balanced out it got better. I was told it was my body in shock from the major teams it had gone through.

. I have not had any red meat yet and I'm 8 weeks out.

This is awesome! Check out low sugar low carbs!!! I used it in my slow cooker and made pulled pork. Soooo good!

I was sleeved June 9th. So I'm in my 7th week. I've lost 40lbs. I had a 2 1/2 week stall that was so discouraging. It finally passed. I have had no trouble getting things down. Some days I struggle to want to eat ( just not hungry) other days I'm at top of my range. I was weighing myself a lot at first. Now I only weigh once a week. I didn't put this all on overnight. It's not gonna come off overnight. STAY THE COURSE!!!!! Have faith in yourself. Most importantly don't compare yourself to anyone else. This is your journey not theirs. Everyone will be different. I look forward to seeing all of our success stories and pictures! I'm documenting pics of pre op, 6 weeks, 4 months, 6 months, and 1year.

As anyone dealt with exema type skin issues since having the surgery?

My stall has passed!! I've moved roughly half a pound a day since. Praise The Lord that stall is over!

Mine is on my face. I did a little research on some types of dermatitis. Apparently weight loss is a common trigger of several types of dermatitis. Mine is so frustrating and itchy I'm considering seeing a dermatologist. Putting make up on makes my face look scaly but no make up looks worse. I really hope it goes away.

Susan I will admit my shape/size is different. My whole goal is to be healthier. I lost my dad 5 years ago which prompted me to make changes. Of course I failed at several things I've tried. I refuse to fail anymore. I have to succeed! I have two daughters that need me around. I've also noticed my cycle is way off since surgery. I'm hoping some of these things will get back to normal. Thank you for your encouragement????

I am four weeks post op and the scale hasn't moved in two weeks. I don't know what to do I'm just so frustrated. I've been told stalls are normal but all this does is make me feel like a failure. I'm hardly having any carbs so I don't know what else to cut. It's not like I'm taking any a ton of calories (rarely over 800). I'm so confused.

As anyone had to take antibiotics since surgery? How did you stomach take it?

Thank you for all of y'all's input.

Thanks. I've been reluctant but I think I have strep.

Same thing happend to me. I lost a few pounds right after surgery, then gained 4 pounds over a five day period. It completly ticked me off. I could not (and still don't) understand how I could gain weight when I was eating only 700 calories a day. But that passed, the stall ended, and I started losing weight again, and losing very quickly. While it's easier said than done, just be patient, give it some time, the wight will come off Thank you for your encouragement!

I'm hope my almost 2lb gain is pre-menstral water weight.

Several people told me a stall is normal I just didn't expect it so quickly. I've gained 1 1/2 lbs which seems impossible considering I hardly eat. I'm holding on to hope that it's just pre-menstral water weight.

Sleeved June 9th Hw: 270 Sw: 250 Cw: 237 I was 234 last week-ugh I am three weeks post op and am gaining weight I don't understand! I'm not even eating 800 calories. I just started a few semi solid things. I just don't get it. How is this possible? Before surgery I would've taken in 3000+ calories and stayed the same. I refuse to fail again. I need suggestions. Please feel free to help.

Thank you both for your responses. I'm thankful for this forum to get some info.

At a little over two weeks out my doc has started me on some foods (very soft). I weighed today and showed a 2lb gain. What the heck??? Is this normal? What could I be doing wrong? Also my BMs stay fairly liquidy. Can anyone relate?

6days down for me. Felt pretty good from there on out.

The sauce ends up draining off. It just flavored the chicken.

I made chicken legs with BBQ sauce in my crockpot. It was super moist and fell off the bone. Went down super easy! I also took this Sunday afternoon to do some food prep for the week. Egg salad & chicken salad. I'm loving how I feel now!!!

Congrats on you 12lbs!
