Lisa's Hope 421 Posted October 20, 2012 Thank you Kristi! I've done pretty well so far. I did have some stomach spasms and left side pain for about two months after surgery but all of it was so worth it!! I still have a lot to lose but I feel awesome. So much better than before surgery. You will be able to for sure. The sleeve is the greatest tool. I feel so blessed!! Thank you about the hair. I did have to have 4 inches cut off because it was coming out so bad but now the Hair loss is slowing down. 2 goldiva and HalfTheWoman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you stay within a certain amount or carbs, calories, and Protein? Your doing great!! I had my surgery May 18th and have lost 60 pounds but hit a stall about 6 weeks ago. Do you stay within a certain amount or carbs, calories, and protein? Hi, I actually hit a stall as well, I think. I try to get in at least 60 to 80 grams of protein. I usually don't eat carbs if I can help it and I don't count calories. I think if I were counting them I would be getting between 600 to 1000 a day. Somewhere in between. I hope for the both of us we break our stall soon!! I know people who have lost 100 pounds since May. I try not to compare myself but I do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohhh. I'm 3 weeks out and tormented by left sided pain. Anything help alleviate it, or did it just disappear one day? Btw you look great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lisa's Hope 421 Posted October 23, 2012 Left side pain for 2 months? Ohhh. I'm 3 weeks out and tormented by left sided pain. Anything help alleviate it, or did it just disappear one day? Btw you look great! Thank you! Yes, I had left side pain and man was it hard!! I thought something was wrong. Even had a CT scan to see if anything would show why it was hurting. It didn't. So, I just started putting ice and a heating pad on there every chance I got. It seemed to get worse with exercise so I didn't move around alot when it was hurting. It did finally go away about 2 to 2 1/2 months out. There is hope... hang in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
