Thank you everyone for the info!

About how does your hair fall out! It just seems like my hair is getting thinner and thinner!! YIKES!!

I am 5 months post, and I usually drink 5 days a week

I started eating steak at 2 months and have had not problems! But I eat a VERY small amount and chew it well!

So I'm not going to beat around the bush! I like my liquor, I have probably about 5 drinks a week. When I had my surgery I told my surgeon that I like my rum n cokes. He told me obviously not to drink them often but if I really want on every once in a while to drink them with flat Coke, at first I though, well that sounds nasty but after my first one I thought, it's not bad. But then I started to like them, after a while I got where every day id get home and drink them as a stress reliever. But now, obviously in having issues and I'm not sure if it's alcohol related or not. I need some advice, I don't want to quit drinking entirely because I do use it as a stress reliever because my job is VERY intense but am I ruining my stomach? That is the last thing I want to do.

I am 5 months out and within the last week I developed a pain in my upper stomach and today I started pooping blood. It is bright red and not sure what it means! Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you for your help!!!

I was sleeves on May 18th 2015 so I am about 5 months out, I have lost about 65 lbs, I'm not sure where that ranks among others but that's where I'm at. Anyways, I was curious about food intakes. I notice I eat way more now than post op and was not sure if I'm eating to much since I've stalled out. About how many ounces is everyone eating in one setting and are you a grazer??

Yes I still have it.

Hi everyone, I am about 5 months post op and I've started having SEVERE stomach pain, it's a very sharp pain I feel in the top region of my stomach, has anyone else felt this and should I see a dr??

I am 6 weeks out and was doing great, but for the last week I have completely stalled out and have not lost a pound! Has anyone else had this problem?

I love the chocolate muscle milk! It's the best I've tasted plus has low sugar and 25g of protein!

Yesterday marked my one month post op and I'm FINALLY starting to get my energy back! Not only that, but eating more food is really helping! I'm still losing weight and being very conscious of what I eat! I am down 35lbs and I don't know if that is too much or too little all I know is I'm happy with my decision FINALLY!

Start weight 213.6 Today's weight 208.4

I know how imperative it is to follow the protein diet but on occasion does anyone splurge? I don't mean splurge by eating a lot just having an occasional cheeseburger or unhealthy foods. I have occasional cravings for cupcakes or cheeseburgers and I'm worried if I eat something like that it will put me off track. Any advice would definitely be helpful.
