I am also struggling been at a stall for about a month and have been having a lot of stomach issues ????

You look fabulous ????! Keep up the good work! Congratulations you look fabulous!! I really want to do the color run!

I still have a long ways to go but here is a before and after picture. I was sleeved on 1/15/2015 HW: 324 SW: 311 CW:256 The picture on right is from February 15, 2015 My journey is just beginning I have hit stall after stall but I am not giving up. I been at a stall for about a month, some days are better than others. At times I can eat very little and be good all day and some days I feel like I can eat a lot more. I do workout 6 days a week for the most part.

I have been at a crazy stall!! I been working out, meal planning and no weight loss in three weeks and sometimes I feel like I can eat more than I should ????

Thank you so much!! I would love to start bike riding, I think it's time to invest in a bike ????

I completed my first 5k yesterday and then ruined by eating a piece of cheeseburger and fries!! Mind you it was not a lot and I took half the bun off. Bad choice I woke up 3 pounds heavier!!! ????. Well lesson learned now to get back on track!! Hope everyone has a beautiful week!!

I also have fibromyalgia and have been on a lot of meds in the past. I am very careful now. I try not to take any meds unless I am really bad.

Great updates! I also have gone back to the beginning. The last two weeks were horrible after illnesses with myself and my kiddos and a family death I was slipping into old habits! The scale was not moving and I was letting everything bring me down. I am back to meal planning and protein shakes. I have also made it back to the gym! We are all human and make mistakes, I know I have ate some stuff I shouldn't eat, but food has always comfort me and I know I can no longer do that. I did have to do an egd because of some stomach issues I was having. I am now on medication for stomach ulcers ????! My doctor said if my issues don't get better he would like to do the bypass! I am not wanting another surgery, I am hoping that everything I am doing now helps me lose more weight and also helps me with my stomach issues. I had my sleeve on January 15. My doctor says I am doing good with my weight loss! 65 pounds gone HW: 324 CW: 259

Sorry you are feeling crappy today! I am in the same boat ???? since I had surgery on and off I get really bad pain on my right lower abdomen. I have been to hospital and they never know what it is. The pain is not there all the time just sometimes but when it's there it hurts so much and I get nauseated I am in tears. I have so many other good things going right now but when I get like this I can't stay positive! I just wish I can feel normal ????. I will be praying for you! just this week that has staryed with me not sure if I slept wron but my shoulder too..weird My tailbone hurts so much I can't get comfortable! ????

Question! Is anyone else having trouble with tailbone pain! My heaviest weight was 324, I am now 262 and I can no longer sit or drive for more than 15 minutes because the pain on my tailbone gets really bad! I am just wondering if this is normal!

Thank you so much! My daughter woke up much better today ????

I am still around, I have been going through a lot! On Thursday my 7 month old niece passed away and I have been a mess! But before this I already had lost motivation. I am not eating bad things, or over eating. I usually skip meals all together or don't keep track of what I eat and I have not worked out in 2 weeks. It seems like everything and everyone else around me needs something from all the time. I am still losing weight it's just coming off very slow! My surgery was 1/15 and I also had my 3 month check up my doctor says I am doing great! I really just feel so overwhelmed and heart broken, I can't get back into my routine. Was planning on working out tomorrow but my 2 year old preemie baby has the flu, also I have nobody to watch her my daughter who did help has a new job and school so she is always busy. My husband is always working. I know I sound like a big whinny baby, by all means I am not trying to make up excuses I just can't seem to catch a break. I am praying for things to start falling back to place. ???? I am down 62 pounds, and that is a great feeling it has not even been 3 months since surgery I have no regrets! I really just need to refocus!! Hope everyone else is doing good! HW:324 CW:262

I feel like I am losing no weight in my stomach area! My face, chest and arms look smaller. It is very annoying, I wore a 26/28 and now have fit into some 18/20 but I have these Capri pants size 22 that I can't fit into! Super annoying!!

Congrats on the 55!! I am down 50! My nut said I couldn't have oj because of the sugar. ???? I don't like g2 or crystal light I would really like some oj or something different

This is exactly how feel. I wish I can just relax and not worry so much about me failing.

Trying doing a workout at home, I did the insanity workout today and I got some Zumba videos on YouTube. With the insanity I can not do all the exercises, the ones I can't do I do something else. But I don't stop moving. I have been at a stall and it's driving me crazy and I have been feeling depressed. We can do this!

I am still at a scale stall, but today my husband wanted IHOP I had an egg! The best thing happened we were sat at a booth with a table that does not move, it was super busy I couldn't ask for another table. All I can think was how uncomfortable I was going to be, when I sat down my stomach had room. My stomach was not touching the table! I was so excited!!! So I guess I am losing inches. I started going to the gym a week ago, I go to a gym were it is nothing but super fit people. But let me tell you they don't even pay attention, I put my earbuds in and just start walking or on the bike. My nut says if I didn't start doing more then walking the scale was not going to move. That motivated me to start going to the gym. I told myself I didn't care what people said or the way they looked at me at the gym, either way people will talk or stare at me. At least I am in there doing something to change. You do you @@Veronica Page ????

I gained 2 pounds ????! I am having so much trouble with the protein! I have tried so many flavors and unflavored. I just want to throw up every time. I barely eat anything, and I drink all my fluids. I need to work on meal plans but I don't know where to start. Every time I call my nut she is never in. I am feeling down, and thinking maybe the sleeve is not working on me ????

Does anybody know if we can have protein smoothies. These have a little more sugar and carbohydrates but I am not sure if I still need to follow the Preop diet protein shake or if I can have some sugar and carbohydrates. I am on soft foods now and Thursday will be 3 weeks since I had surgery.

Question?? Last night I started having a lot of pain on my left side where my incisions are at and now it feels swollen and I can't really move, is the part of the healing process?

I also have lost no weight since I went to my postop visit ????

My surgery was 1/15 and I went home on 1/16. Maybe the Kidney issue is common, I kept thing my back pain was from surgery and come to find out I had passed a stone and had an infection. Once that passed I felt so much better, I am having issues with getting in all my protein I am kinda over the shakes. But I am also feeling really good! ????

Really! What is inside of the enchilada? And what stage does your doctor have you at?

I agree I don't want to spend anymore money, but I can't start eating meat till February 5. Meanwhile I can tolerate eggs and the beans but I know that is not enough protein.
