How did you determine your "goal weight"?
Aribay1 replied to hisandhersleeves's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My doctor told me between 160-175 for a healthy BMI but if I want to go lower (which I do) he said to do it with exercise and not diet a lone because I will look sick. Hope that makes sense -
Oh no I hope you feel beter! After this I never had these symptoms again so maybe it was high sodium. Not sure tho but can't complain now

So I never had it before I think idk. So I'm having chest pain almost like shock and then it goes to my back then back to the front and rolls to my stomach area (the pain) but I'm not pooping it just stops. It's hurts awful. It started at 8 lasted no more then 3 minutes. Like 930 it started but I walked around and it went away. Now 1030 it happened again. Around 10.00 I did poop. But don't have the urge to again. Dumping or should I go to the hospital. I just don't want to waste a trip if it's something that will go away ya know?

So I think it's because I was obese but my neck is darker then everything else. Almost looks like I should scrub it but it's not because of that. Basically I'm wondering if you had a dark neck and once post op did did it clear up I'm going to be 4 months post op and just wondering if your neck returned returned to normal color lol.

Mainly because I'm sure my friends are tired of me talking about how excited I am in my weight los journey here are some things that I'm excited about! 1) I weight 201lbs! So close to onederland!!! 2) which would mean only 40lbs more to hitting my doctors goal for me (a healthy BMI) 3) this summer might be the first summer I consider wearing a bikini it's weird to be excited about but I feel like I have more summer options now! 4) I'm just excited to be skinny! And healthy! And happy! Anyone else have these excitements constintly running through their heads ! AHHHHH!

Haha thanks!And trust me it'll be here before you know it then you'll be so inpatient and want the weight off but remember hard work pays off!!

It's just amazing to feel decently comfortable in my skin. I still have a small gut (compared to my huge spare tire before) and I think once that's gone I'll feel even better. I'm on cloud 9 over here!

DOES LOSING THIS WEIGHT HURT?
Aribay1 replied to downsizingdiva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm almost 4 months post op and I only hurt when I eat bad things and that's mental hurt lol. If anything I feel amazing! I really noticed how less aches I have throughout my body. I've lost 58lbs and I feel amazing. The other day and work I had to lift 30lbs and thought to myself wow I had to carry this plus more before wow no wonder I was in pain. I don't know how long your post op but maybe it's still pain from the surgery. -
Look at the gym schedule maybe there is a weight lifting class you can do that's how I get my weight lifting on. Those juiceheads at the lifting area intimidate me lol.

I have one too! My email is ariadnaramirez2@hotmail.com I think that's how you add people. Add me!

Oh dam. I'm moving out of state by the end of the year and my insurance is going to be over in a year so I need to plan. Lol. Thanks!

Look it up on youtube it's worth going to especially for someone who has never worked out before.

Never found out it happened probably like 4-5 times then I just slept it off and woke up fine. I feel like it happened because I ate like crap all day but I have zero clue what it was. Sorry hope you find out

How long did it take you to get to your goal weight? Just curious for my birthday I'll be 7 months post op and am hoping to be a decent size by then. I have about 40-50lbs before I reach first goal (normal bmi is my first goal then I'll see if I want to be smaller)
