I never thought I'd ask this question and please don't fuss at me... How do I stop losing weight. I'm 100 pounds down, from an 18 to a 4, 5'3" tall, 130 pounds, 6 1/2 months from sleeve surgery. I really feel like I've lost enough so how do I stop losing?

What are some tips/tricks people are doing to help the look of thinning hair?
-
I already had thin hair prior to surgery so this really sucks. I do have the Topik. I need to go get a lighter color now that I have less hair for it to blend with. Has anyone tried the clip in hair extensions?

I am 5 months out from my sleeve and hernia repair. I had my non-functioning gallbladder removed 3 weeks ago. My GI came back normal. However, I still have this feeling of indigestion. It doesn't matter what I eat or what I don't eat. I'm still unable to eat most foods without feeling nauseous or only eating a bite or two. My sleeve either likes things like Jello, broth or crackers. Any ideas?
-
Going back to the surgeon tomorrow. Even after having my gallbladder removed I am still suffering from indigestion and my throat makes this funny noise sometimes. Anyone know what this is?
-
Anyone have their gallbladder out recently. How did you feel afterwards as for the gallbladder symptoms? How was recovery?
-
Went for an ultrasound yesterday on my gallbladder. The dr. Office called today and said the doc wants to see me tomorrow. Guess that means I will be having my gallbladder removed. Seeing the doc tomorrow at 1pm.

13 weeks out. I'm so over the indigestion! It doesn't matter what I eat/ what I don't eat. I've tried everything to make it go away. Doc doing X-ray of gallbladder and something else, I can't remember what it is, on Tuesday. Got any advice on how to help?

Im choosing the right foods. Sometimes I wonder if I'm chewing good enough. It doesn't matter if I eat or not I still suffer with indigestion. I have history of an ulcer. I take back about the amount. If it's soft like yogurt I can eat most of it. It's weird how my stomach tolerates edamame or a rice cake but not a lot of other foods.
-
I'm about 15 weeks out. I'm still mostly on soft foods. Most everything else comes back up or I make it come back up because it makes me feel nauseous. I'm having a upper GI and ultrasound on gallbladder Monday. What should my progress be? If I do eat I can only eat a bite or two.

No. I just increased my Omeprazole to twice a day.

Having a hard time getting my vitamins in. They are so gross! I had a hard time with vitamins pre-op too. What's everyone else taking?

I'm 5 weeks out today. I don't want to eat or drink. I'm not getting my protein in so I'm tired and I have a very active job.
-
Oh I do it. I know I had this surgery to get healthier. I just don't like it. I'm 6 weeks tomorrow and find I am hungry when I first wake in the mornings.
-
I can eat and drink. I just don't have the urge to. It's so stressful worrying about the protein and liquids all the time.

Sleeved June 9th. I don't know if I am having reflux or what but I feel gurgling and/or a bubbling in my stomach. Going on week 5 and my stomach pretty much hates anything that's not cottage cheese, soup, yogurt or sugar free Popsicles. Everything else makes me nauseous or have a stomach ache. I had a fussy stomach to begin with, last year had a healing ulcer and diagnosed with IBS. Any advice?

June Gastric Sleevers Out there
Season26 replied to skjerstad's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sleeved June 9th. I find I am hungry more often as well which if you think about is good. I always hear to eat 6 small meals a day. -
I am almost 4 weeks out from the sleeve and a hernia repair. My stomach just doesn't feel normal. I mean I know my stomach isn't normal... When I drink it still hurts. My stomach kind of feels like it did when I had an ulcer a year ago. Is this normal? Anyone else feeling this way?
-
Your favorite protein powder. I recommend figuring out which that is now. I've spent too much time, money and stress worrying about getting my protein. I love PB2 and mixing in extracts. Sugar free Popsicles were my saving grace! The name brand is so much better than the non-brand in this case. Sugar free jello, chicken or vegetable broth and your favorite Crystal Light. I'm only 3 weeks out so I'm still doing all of this.
