  1. This is the first of many stalls you are going to go through. Alot of times when you are "stalling" you will notice inches lost. The stalling part sucks but, you will continue to lose. You also have a lower BMI so, your weightloss might be slower.... keep that in mind if you notice other people losing fast then you. You will lose though!!????

    Post surgery Q - recovery

    I am like you and I do not get held down for long. I healed very quickly from my csections and I am 4 days post op from sleeve surgery and could definitely do a desk job. The discomforts are similar to csections. If you have a job where you are on your feet all day... Inwould think twice about doing so. Remember to get your fluids and proteins in... that has been the hardest for me! Good Luck!
  5. I joined the losers bench on July 5th! I had a reaction to anesthesia which set me back a few day. Inwas unable to keep anything down until Thursday afternoon. I was released Thursday evening. I was so greatful to sleep in my own bed. I have not had to have any painkillers since Thursday morning when I was still vomiting. My stomach does ache a bit when walking and with the gas pains. Inhabe tried gas-x with minimal relief. Walking is what is helping me most. So far, I have average 24 oz of fluids since release from the hospital. Because I was so ill, I did not use anything thing I brought. I had blurred vision until today. I went home in the clothes I came in. I am feeling pretty good today!!

    July Surgery

    Glad you are doing well Shaunie. The anesthesia did not sit well with me either. I ended up very sick and couldn't keep anything down until yesterday afternoon. Since my nausea wasn't as bad they went ahead and discharged me. I am doing ok at home, trying to get all my fluids in. Are you getting in the whole 64oz of fluids yet? I am only managing around 10oz. ???? Good luck to everyone!! Sent from my SM-G935V using the BariatricPal App
