I have been using the MyFitnessPal app and that does help. I just hate giving in to my cravings and eating junk that I know I shouldn't be.

At my 6 month check up my doctor told me I was losing too slow and I felt like a complete failure. He suggest I talk to a therapist. I left the office in tears. I am at 9 months out now and I have lost a total of 81 pounds and 53 pounds since surgery. I did have a couple weeks were I gained a pound or 2 and it felt like it took me forever to lose it again. I am beyond frustrated.

1st restaurant experience post op
TeahTeah replied to sylvia2017's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I went to lunch with my mom and 2 brothers and I just asked for a plate and said we'd share. It was great because I got a bite of each of their meals! lol -
Picked one up! Hope it's good at $6.19. lol

I am a little past 6 weeks post op. Has anyone else felt like they have an excessive amount of saliva going on? I know it's not lady like to spit but I just feel like my mouth is producing more than the average amount of saliva.

You are not alone! Sleeved 4/10 and lost 20 pounds so far. Just keep your head up, it'll get better!

Help needed with decision RNY or Sleeve
TeahTeah replied to Terri70's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I actually originally wanted RNY but changed my mind to have VSG. There are benefits and downsides to each procedure. So I'd say do what you think is best for you. You typically lose more and quicker with RNY. With VSG it is less invasive and you don't have the vitamin absorption problems. But with VSG you lose slower but don't have problems with the dumping syndrome. -
Let's talk skin...excess skin and scarring
TeahTeah replied to xoxococojay's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
My doctor said not to expose incision sites for 1 year after surgery. I haven't tried it but heard that lavender oil helps heal and fade the scars. -
3day post op, the protein shakes are killing me.
TeahTeah replied to Ylm87's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had the same problem. (Sleeved 4/10) it gets better once you can eat real food. Now I drink one a day to get all my protein in.
