Doing fine. Im 6 weeks out. Lost about 40lbs.. Starting weight training and cardio at the gym.. I was at a stall aro u nd 3 weeks for a awhile and then was dropping weight fast for a few days. Eating most foods now.. Some still hurt going down. Im still learning.

Surgery was 1.13.15. In doing fine. On soft foods now and at a stall with the scale but still lossing inches so im guessing its water weight or something.. Going to gym everydsy and walking alittle over a mile.. Hoping to see the number on the scale go down soon tho. Lost 30lbs so far.

Im 2 weeks post op... Anyone have issues with reflux or heartburn??? Does it go away in time ?? Im seeing my doctor in 2 days but just want some insight.. Im hoping it goes away soon. I dont want to be on medication but i think i will have to be..

No he didnt prescribe anything.. I see him in 2 days so i will ask then.. Thats what im afraid of, i dont want to be on meds for a while, im,hoping it goes away soon

619raf... Im in the same boat.. I keep trying different protein drinks and powders and my stomach just cant take them anymore.. Everything,is so gross and i wanna throw up. Im not,getting anywhere near my 60 grams of protein... I might get like 15 to 20 grams in.... As soon as i can eat meat tho, i think i will be fine. But these drinks are so gross to me now.. Ughhh its so annoying, and i dont feel like wasting more money on the protein shakes.

Im 10 days post op and omg please tell me it gets better.. Im so sick of soups and yogurts.. I just want some chicken or tuna to eat.. I want flavors and i want to chew.. Ugh.. I always have a headache or heartburn pr this weird empty feeling.. I feel like it would get better once i can eat real foods... Ughhhhh please tell me it get better.. Bc it suckssss sooo bad right now.. I hate this feeling i have

Ok thank you... All my family and friends who had wls tell me its the best decision they made and they have no regrets... But right now im miserable so i dont see it yet.. But im sure when im 100 lbs lighter i will start to realize it lol

I was sleeved on jan. 13th. First 4 or 5 days are killer with gas pains and such... After that, i felt great. But yes, i keep getting,hunger headaches too..cant wait to be put on normal foods so these headaches go away... But i need to start taking my Vitamins too, i think that will help.. And im not getting all my Protein in bc the thought of a Protein shake makes me gag right now... Glad everyone is feeling good!!

I just had the sleeve done tuesday and i get my period today? I have pcos, i only get a period like once a year.... Is this common? I just had a period in beginning of december...

Ok thanks guys.. Really weird. Lol its light so its not that bad but still.. On top of the pain and recovery.. I get a period too.. Like wtf.. How is that fair?!??! Lol i lost about 30 lbs in like a couple weeks so maybe that had something to do with it too.. Im glad im not the only one

Still in some pain buy now getting a wheezing cough.... Should i be concerned?? Should i start going on a nebulizer??

Ok thanks, yes im using the apirator that i suck into... I only cough like 3 times a day but when i do cough it sounds like an old smoking man... I will call my doctor

I had my sleeve done around 430pm yesterday, but my back is still killing me.. Its my upper back... Im getting morphine every 4 hours and trying to walk as much as possible, anything else i can do.. Is this normal.. Im sooooooooo tired.. Only got about 2 hours of sleep.. I wake up like every 15 mins for a while...

My surgery is scheduled tomorrow and im on full liquids today.... Can i have tomato soup today, or just chicken broth.... Im soooo hungry lol

Wow weird how every doctor is different..

I called the office, i can have tomato soup and yogurt.. Thanks!

Wow you are prepared!! Good job and good luck.. Im the day after you.. I get mine tuesday!! Im sooo excited.. ????

Woohoo.. Mine is tuesday!!! Im so excites to finally start this,new life of,mine!! Good luck

Anyone else have random fluctuating numbers on the scale during pre op diet.... Every day i weigh myself and its fluctuating so much.. I was 297 then 290 then 287 then back up to 289 now today 290.. Wtf , is this normal... Its sooooo annoying.. Im starving myself and gaining, i dont get it!!!!

Ok thanks so much I will try that

Ok good idea... I just was loving seeing the number go down and down and it was inspiring and encouraging.,.. Now, not so much lol... The only thing,i changed was drinking my protein shake with 2% milk bc thats all i had in the house.. I guess i should,go out and get skim milk tho..... Im,not starving,myself. It just feels like,it...... Protein shake in morning and afternoon... A lean cuisine dinner or something like that for dinner and usually a salad with little vinagerette dressing during,the day if im huuuuungry and maybe a jello or something as a snack.. And sometimes another protein shake at night after dinner........

Day 6 of pre op diet and lost 10 lbs... 8 more days to go... Im hoping for a 20lb weight loss!! Seeing the number on the scale go down is very encouraging!!! January 13th.. Cant wait!!!!

My surgery is January 13th as well!!!! In new jersey!!! Started preop diet on tuesday!!!

So for my 2 week pre op diet.. I can have 2 - 3 protein shakes and one small meal a day that consist of 3 oz of protein, some veggies and starch. What do most of you eat?? Im guessing alot of grilled chicken, maybe some tuna and brothy soups and salads? Tomorrow starts my diet and im nervous!!! Im a stay at home mom with 3 kids so i eat alot bc im bored and its in front of me!!!

I keep weighing myself every morning for motivation... I started my diet on Tuesday and lost 4 lbs so far.. Good motivition to keep going..!!!! Keep up the great work!!! Only 12 more days for me!! Yahooo
