170lbs in 7 months???? WOW!! That's AMAZING!!!

I lost 30 of it on my pre-surgery diet. So more like 9 months lol .

But 140 in the past 7 months.

My surgery was February 19th. Did get a small leak and then needed to have my esophagus dilated. So things have not been easy for sure. I AM 7 MONTHS FRON MY SURGERY AND TODAY I HIT TOTAL LOSS OF 125lbs. I think that is great considering I am 54 years old. Even though I have spent many days at hospitals and doctors I would do it all again.

I have lost 130+ down from 360. It hasnt been fun. I get a lot of pain when I eat. The kind you get when you eat too much or too fast, but for me I get it no matter how slow or little I eat. To survive, I find that I eat too many Snacks and crap. I just cant get in a good meal that satisfies me. Very frustrated.

To Susansoon - how did you know you had a leak or needed your throat dilated? What were your symptoms. I wonder if something is wrong with me?

Also, my hair is thinning a lot. And my hair is muuch wavier than before. Strange....

Richard, tell you dr. They will scope you to see if you have a stricture. Hope you find relief.

Ok, I'm 7 months post up, down 62 lbs. Lately I have noticed the overwhelming stomach gurgles. It's almost embarrassing because my stomach gurgles while I am eating. Any idea why this is happening and how I can contain it.

I get that sometimes too. It sounds almost like Water going down the drain! LOL! I just giggle and say excuse me if it's really loud. But I don't know what causes it.

Pregnant. Seven and half months post-op. Paragaurd IUD failed me. So I guess Ill be updating as things develop! For now, best of luck on your weight loss journeys. I have to note focus on getting enough nutrition to sustain this developing life.

WOW! So happy for you! I'm sure you and baby will be just fine. Can you get extra nutrition in liquid form by drinking Boost or Ensure?

Congratulations, what joyous news. I can't wait to hear all about your little. Babies are definitely a blessing and not always on our timing. I have no doubt you are going to rock this pregnancy the same way you've rocked the sleeve. Congrats again.
