A little results

[christina@MIA 12]

Hello all,

It has been 8 1/2 weeks and I'm down 36lbs. That's half way to goal! I'm under 180, I have not been under 180 in 6 years! =) My clothes are falling off, my butt is wide and flat, my boobs look like pan cakes, my hair is not falling out yet =), my hooker heals feel much better, I can wear my cute panties again. I still feel very fatigue everyday. But for most part I feel good. I have a sharp pain near the incision on my left side rib area. It only hurts when I try to do sit up's. I'm going to give it a few more week's and see if it just needed more time to heal. I'm going to try new vits this week. Maybe my Gummie vits are not enough and thats why I have fatigue. Does any know if surgery can give you a hernia? My next goal is 165 by Turkey Day!

Congrats chickee ! ! ! You've done fabulous. Incisional hernias can occur especially if you strained something before your internal wounds had healed. You might want to have some basic labs pulled to ensure all is well in that department, and if you aren't taking a B12 supplement, grab a bottle of sublingual b12. My energy greatly improved once I started b12, and it's one of the Vitamins that we really need because the sleeve causes the intrinsic factor of our stomach to not absorb b12 properly. Plus, make sure your Vitamin has Iron in it.

You'll make your Turkey Day goal ! ! ! Cheers to your many successes.

Thank you so much Tiff! I have been taking my sub b12. Maybe I need to get shots! I was afraid that surgery could cause a hernia so I guess its time to see the doc. And as for Iron, I guess I do need to get some big girl vits...lol.

I hope you don't mind, I always tell people to look you up for good info! I tell them you know the ins and outs of tricare. =) And your the best at research!!!!

Thank for the big smile on my face....You rock!

Woot woo!!!! Great job. The energy thing may be NUT related, by it really does take of us a little longer to adjust to the huge decrease in caloric intake. How exciting, goal by Thanksgiving!!!!! Go you, keep us posted on what your doc says.

Great job I can't wait to be in the 70's again

You are doing great too! You are already wearing smaller sizes than I am!!!!

It's the craziest thing, last Wed. I weighed 183.6 this Wed. I weigh 177.2. That's more than 5lbs in a week! I've only been losing 1 - 2 lbs a week....then BAM! The only thing I changed was instead of walking on the treadmill I am swimming laps using the kick board at the YMCA.

Thanks Anna! I will keep you posted. I have an appt on Wed. You must feel great yourself =) Over 100lbs gone....gone....gone forever!

So I went to the Doc yesterday and they sent my for xrays of my upper abdominal area. Today she called and said everything looks great, no hernia. She said try doing some stretching for a week. I guess I'll give it a try.
