I am really struggling with my stomach. so saggy and loose and seems nothing I do is helping to tighten it up. I kow some of this is genetics and the amount to lose/lost, etc. WHAT are you go to ab exercises. what has worked for you?

I was running and had to stop several weeks due to my stupid dog braking my toes LOL I just started again. hoping that helps -
Looks like I'm going to have to have it removed. has anybody else had this issue post op? is it common? I started throwing up out of nowhere last week. and I have NOT thrown up at all since my sleeve surgery in December. what was your down time like? recovery? time off work? the timing could not be worse! I am supposed to start a new position on August 15th. I may now miss out on this opportunity. UGH

Am I eating too many POPSICLES???
Avery's Mom replied to Friday205's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
there is no such thing lol seriously I eat like two a day still at almost 8 months out. it counts a water to me -
Anybody else find they seem to bruise really easily now since the surgery? I notice all kinds of weird bruises, no idea where they came from......lol All bloodwork has come back normal.

I ate raw celery yesterday. I threw up six times. I hate this because I love celery so much. will I ever be able to eat it again? maybe it is too soon?

I ate raw celery yesterday. boy did I pay for it. I threw up six times! no more celery for me!

mine too. I could have cream of wheat during my 'liquid' stage but she told me to cut it out after the third week for the carbs.

most likely not. your insurance will be the one to decide though.

My Bariatric Surgery Book (written/given to me by my surgeon and nutritionist) says that I can eat that one week after my surgery. I had my VSG Surgery on 5/13/19 and have been been eating all of those veggies and fruits since 5/20/19. Everything has gone smoothly for me so far. 👍🏻 that is kind of scary to me, given the ease with which the sleeve can be damaged during healing.

figuring out an ultimate goal
Avery's Mom replied to Johnny B's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
yeah mine says something ridiculous like 22. I am 5'11" no way is that happening. My current goal is 200 but IDEAL would be 170 if I want to hit that BMI of 24 to be "Normal" -
I drink pretty much only water at this point. if I am low on protein I have a shake for dinner.

mine too AND my migraines

Questions about stalls! New here!
Avery's Mom replied to ADerryberry's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
DO NOT WEIGH EVERY DAY. IT WILL MAKE YOU CRAZY. Only weigh in once a week. stalls are normal. I stalled for three weeks then lost 7 lbs, then stalled again then lost 5 -
