What summerset says!💯

It is Valentina. It's a Mexican hot sauce, but not hot at all. I'm not sure how I feel about it after surgery. I used to love it before. My son-in-law is Mexican and had me try this. I told him it wasn't for me, but it's very good.

I started at 53.7 BMI and am about at 43 now. I'm 4 months out. You can do it! Good luck!

Yes I did. It changes once you get on solid foods.

When I came out of surgery water tasted sweet to me. I asked if they put something in the water. Maybe put sweetmer in your water or cucumbers to give it flavor. The first month was just awful for me. That is my experience and not necessarily others. One particular night I was so exhausted trying to get water in. I said f it! I went to bed at 5:30. I did end up getting fluids 2x because I just couldnt get it in. Hang in there! I'm 4 months out and I'm completely healed and loving life. 64 pounds I have lost and it feels great!

Your describing exactly what I am going through. I'm almost 4 months post-op and having terrible acne and my hair is coming out. I never thought I would have to worry about hair loss because I have a lot if hair. But, seeing the amount if hair in my brush is alarming. I dont have the solution yet, but I did go and buy biotin and shampoo and conditioner with biotin in it. I've been using it for about a week now. Hoping it works. Best of luck to you!

Meat gets me full very quickly and feels somewhat painful. I can only eat about 3 oz. Maybe you should stick to softer proteins for awhile?

I also cried right before going into surgery. It was very emotional. I dont regret having surgery either. Best thing I've done!

You look great!

I had surgery 2/25 and have lost 63 and I feel that's pretty good. I've only lost 5 pounds since June 1st. I would say you're doing great!

About 200 calories 1 packet of tuna Tomatoes Onion Tostada 1 T light mayonnaise Valentina

That's all? That seems pretty darn good to me! Congrats!

I was bruised as well. Also, was bruised on my arms.

It hurt me the first month. I'm almost 4 months post-op and can drink/gulp normally.

I'm so sorry you have/are going through so much! You look fabulous and are healthy for that pretty daughter of yours. Hang in there 💗

Congrats! You will love life after the initial phase!!

Omg you've hardly eaten anything! I feel like I pig put compared to this. I'm able to eat more and have to keep myself in check and be vigilant. I can't eat a lot at one sitting, but I can see bad habits wanting to cone back. You inspire me to do better! Way to go!

I was severely depressed before surgery. Today I feel so much better and I love shopping for clothes. You will get there. Please take care of yourself, I know it is hard. Your story is almost identical to mine.

I have trouble with eating fast and have to work on this every day. I take a bite and do not pick up my utensil till 20 second after I swallow. It's a big improvement from before. Eating quicker doesn't seem to affect me, but all the sudden I get a "better stop" feeling. I've even had to spit out food. But, I haven't thrown up once.

Check with your Dr. I had to get fluids 2x and they do it out patient. It will make you feel better and I could do it 3x a week if I needed to. Good luck!

This is pretty typical and I had trouble too. I can now chug water. It gets way better.

I dont regret having my gastric sleeve one bit! I bet you won't either. Good luck!

Mine was day 8. Full liquids.

Amazing! Congrats!

I'm almost 4 months post-op and I get them when I'm full. I too, hope it stays.
