Good luck! You will shine! Best thing I ever did!

Good luck. I will be so happy you did it. I have no regrets. Remember to walk walk walk.

I started loosing a lot of hair around the three month mark. Now I don't wash my hair as often because I loose huge amounts every time I wash it. This was the worst day...

Yes, I stalled right about at that time. It is natural. Don't worry. The weight will the come off.

Hey folks! I'm happy to report that I have lost exactly 40 pounds since my surgery two months ago! Here is a picture taking today compared to one taken seven days before my surgery.

No issues like that. As a matter of fact I had IBSD and now it is gone. So all my bathroom issues have been resolved. Now I get constipated occasionally but I take a. Still softener and I am ok. ????

Down 46 since July. Best decision I ever made! 28th

My surgeon wants me to take a chewable multivitamin with iron. Do any of these have iron?

Hello. I can not tolerate meatballs and they cause me to vomit. I assume it has to do with breadcrumbs. I am two months post op. Will I ever be able to eat meatballs again? If so, how long did it take you to be able to eat them? Thank you in advance. ????????????

How much have you lost? 40 pounds

Aww thank you. Soon you will be an inspiration to someone else!! Wait and see!

2 month update. I had my surgery on July 28th.

Thank you for all the awesome comments! Having this sleeve was the best decision ever! No regrets! The only regret is that I didn't do it sooner! ????????????????????

Good luck!

Hello everyone. I'm writing this to get something off my chest. I am going to have my gastric sleeve surgery done in two days in New Jersey. I chose this topic because it is one that I have had the displeasure of dealing with for the past few years. I gain weight around my belly and I must seem to look pregnant to people. It may seem trivial but I really really really look forward to the day where I no longer look pregnant and people stop asking me whether I'm pregnant. They have asked me at work, at stores, at funerals, at nightclubs! Even children have asked me why I'm so fat and whether I'm having a baby. It is so overbearing at times❗️❗️❗️two people have rubbed my stomach and congratulated me. It is so frustrating! Thank you all for listening and feel free to comment.

You will all be fine. I had my sleeve on July 28th and u have no regrets almost 40 pounds later. You will shine and be happier than ever.

I'm on my sixth week and haven't lost anything this week. Any suggestions?

T Thanks. That correlation is quite helpful.

Thanks for the advice! How long to the stalls usually last?

I am eating soft foods this week and I will be able to eat regular food soon. I have been eating a lot of fish, egg salad, tuna salad, scallops, hummus, Soup, mashed potato, spinach, watermelon, Protein shake, cottage cheese, eggs, cold cuts, guacamole, etc. You are doing great!

Hi all. I am six weeks post op tomorrow. Here is my before and after pic. The first pic was taken a week before my surgery on July 28th. The second pic was taken today. I lost 32 pounds so far and feel great.

Thanks!

I am stalling at week five. I have not lost any weight since Monday! It is frustrating and I hope it will pass. I have lost 31 pounds so far.
