Today I went shopping and did not have to go to the plus size section!! I'm wearing an extra large in most clothes and almost in a regular 16 in pants. My 16w are getting to big. HOWEVER- I've been getting this weird feeling of tiredness coming on and off all day long. I did the warm up exe on wii Zumba and was dizzy after 8 mins.

Congrats! Can't wait until I'm there. I'm stuck in 20s for now. But I had a NSV a couple of days ago. I went to a dancehall and was actually asked to dance! That's never happened before. The poor guy had to teach me lol.

Kiwi

make sure you are staying hydrated and getting your Protein in. You may have to increase both a bit. If it persists please call your Doc,

Happy for you new size.

I think it is awesome how well you are doing, Just don't forget to take care of you,

I have...it's Protein and Water related. Increase your protein and drink more water. Also, how many calories are you eating a day? Your body fights starvation hard.

I always struggle with calories :(. I hate to post cause I'm not doing so well. My goal is to make it over 300 calories a day. On a good day I'm getting 500. It could be Water which I slowed down on, I just keep sleeping and when I'm wake, I feel like I'm going to pass out and go back to sleep. Ughhhh

Yeah. In working my way towards picking between adding more Water of a Protein shake, cause I do not have room for both. I had a very hard time recovering from survey and take 3 different medications to help keep the food and Water down.

What a relief to hear you say your struggling with calories. I no longer feel alone. I'm the same way Kiwi!!! Nothing feels ok in my pouch, if I could just sleep away the next 2 years and have the lbs. melt off I so would!!! It's terrible but there are times when I make myself throw up because stuff in my pouch feels so awful. I can't believe I just disclosed that, but my daily goal right now is to eat 6 small Protein meals a day without making myself throw up =[

Ok so may our situations aren't that similar Kiwi, but you post prompted me to disclose my own issue. THANK YOU! Also, I know what I'm doing is bad, I'm going to support group but have yet to disclose my issue to either the group or my surgeon.

My surgery date: Aug 27th 2012

I also am going through the same issue, since my surgery,Aug27th, I am not hungry and any food in my pouch gives me nausea. I hate it I struggle every day to put food in my mouth.i eat once a day and I try to snack on cheese. I can't stomach the shakes. They make me sick. I know that I have to eat but I just don't like the feeling after:(

Ugh...so sorry you are struggling too =[

I hope you are taking your Vitamins? I haven't had any in weeks...I know, BAD! But I tried to take a multi today and it just made me feel worse. If I learn anything helpful I'll certainly post it.

Thanks guys! I was feeling like its just me. I often wait until I'm starving to eat. I can tell because I get a headache or a intense feeling of wanting to vomit. I'm scared I might pass out one day. The other thing that sucks is I find myself chewing food and spitting it back out. I hate the feeling of fullness.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
