  2. I was wondering what qualified you to have this done???? Ive heard alot have been due to infections in the creases of flapped over skin...But is there any other issues that can possibly qualify u??? (Well if u insurance does cover that type of surgery) Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App
  3. Ty for replying...Ive lost a total of 86lbs thus far...ive had no rashes but my belly skin hangs over enough that if i do not apply powder (it is a fungul powder which i get free from my job and is possibly why i haven't had any rashes) so if i dont apply the powder continuously it gets sweaty and smelly..lol..sorry to be so detailed..lol..also im sure with having 3 c sections it doesnt make it better because it seems like after loosing that amount weight it gave the excess skin the perfect fold to hang over..lol..I wasnt sure if it was worth talking to my primary about or not...What do u think fatontheinside??? As u said u work for an insurance company so may know that answer better idea then me.... Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App

  5. So i had surgery in April 2016 and ive started at 262 (surgery day) and currently am 177...I did go down as far as 170 but have bounced in between tue last several weeks and im sure its due to eating things im not suppose to be eating...I went to Mexico for a wedding stayed a week about 2weeks ago and between eating so much (it was all inclusive) and drinking (malibu bay breeze's) im not suprised to the increase in my weight...So im at the point where im not int in my shakes cause i want food..smh...Lastnight i ate in 1 sitting 8 turkey sausage links, amd 2hrs later ate an apple...I was full but not sick feeling full, comfy full where i couldve ate more had i not went to bed..smh..i feel like i have stretched or increased my stomach size by eating the things i have and pushing it to where now, i eat more at 1 time rather then only smaller amounts because im hungry...Have i??? Is this all mental??? Or really i started to mess up what the surgery did for my stomach...Im proud and feel great for all ive lost but i worry that maybe it isnt enough to keep me from falling backwards and gaining weight again...With summer around the corner im more excited then ever to prance around in my new bod..lol..im aware if i dont catch myself now, i may not make it to summer at this weight and only continue to gain..At rhe same rate im hungry alot like before surgery ???? Does any1 have any advice for me or can answer my questions as to whether ive ruined my newly smaller stomach??? I never realized how much the mental end can affect u after this in so many ways..smh..i really need peoples input pls??? Tyia!!!! Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App
  6. Im 10 months out of gastric sleeve surgery and so far i have had great success...Im down 85lbs, all my blood work has been good, ive physically healed well and have felt very lucky to get this far with no worries of any sort...But about 3 days ago i started feeling a tenderness amd if i press a pain just below my left breast past my rib cage...I looked it up on the computer and that is where the stomach is (upper left quadrant area) so was wondering if thats normal, has any1 else had this, this far out of surgery??? Its almost like when i 1st had the surgery, that feeling but just there in that spot...Should i rush to see my Dr or be this worried that something is wrong??? I thought at 1st maybe i pulled something but once i realized thats where my stomach actually is ive become more concerned especially since i havent done any abnormal activities it just kinda just started to bother me...of any1 can relate or recommend anyrhing id appreciate it...ty Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App

  8. I had my sleeve done 4/14/16 and i definitely have had an appetite increase over time...Theres times i find im constantly hungry and feel as tho i could eat and eat...Im worried because today i ate a whole 3 egg & cheese omlete without any issues...Any advice or suggestions???? Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App
  9. So everytime ive seen my dr i forget to ask him this question...Pls dont think im stupid asking this, but i do wonder if this can hapoen...Do you ever really stop loosing weight??? Does it just continue to come off??? Of course i know if i go back to eating how i did before, over time i would gain weight, but if i continued to eat the way ive been shown by the dr & nutritionist will i just continue to loose??? Ive lost 65lbs in 3months, im only 20lbs away from my goal weight...I never thought i say this but im worried i may go right past my goal weight and continue to loose... I truly feel i wouldnt be happy if that happened, due to my body structure....If any1 can explain ir share their experience it would be appreciated.. tyia :0)

  15. Im 2months out of my sleeve surgery and was wondering if any1 has taken any of the 2 Vitamins in the picture...Biotin alone is a gel capsule and the One Source Vitamin is a coated capsule....A friend who had the same surgery just different Dr said she started them at my stage...I havent spoken with my Dr just yet, but ive noticed from reading these posts and other sites alot of Dr's do things differently...Just figured id ask and see the response..

  18. Im 6wks out of my sleeve surgery and im feeling down about my progression...I walk everyday atleast a mile, moat of the time 2 miles...I increase my speed each day and even though its walking i sweat and get my heart rate up as the Dr told me to...I have an appt woth my Dr on July 14th ans he said he wamtwd to see and additional 40 gone by then and i still cant wrap my mind around it....So at this point im stuck at 32lbs down from surgery day and on top of that, i dont even feel it...I know every1 around me says how they see it but i feel like my mind hasnt caught up to my body yet and its really bringing me down...Ive seen posts before of similar story's and it was hard to believe some1 could loose that much weight and not see or feel it but now im understanding how possible it is...I really dont know what i expected and im def not feeling like i thought i would...Any suggestions or advice???

  21. Im 5 weeks out of having my sleeve done and for several days ive been having cramping and bloatiness in my lower belly which i related to my cycle coming on...I normally cramp atleast a week prior to, so it didnt seem alarming...But today im having pains under my right rib also and its tender to the touch....Not sure if i need to get into the Dr asap cause maybe something is wrong or this is my cycle coming on or maybe even gas...Can any1 tell me what would be signs besides pain that ive done something inside that needs medical attention right away??? If any1 can guve advice id appreciate it...Tyia Sent from my SM-N910P using the BariatricPal App

Thank u every1 for all the replies...I seen my doc today and he says everything seems normal...I am bloated which he said could be gas or possibly my period..If the pain becomes very sharp or unbearable go directly to ER...But as of right now he see's no issues of concern....thankx again for all the replies and concerns....
