kparadisek 115 Posted December 27, 2013 Congrats to all the August bypassers! Everybody has been having great success! I'm so happy for all of us! I'm down 61 pounds! I see the weightloss most days but then others I think my body looks the same but clearly it doesn't since I had to buy all new clothes! 1 Princess Sarah reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kpayton81 9 Posted December 28, 2013 Is anyone experiencing a decrease in sex drive? At first things were great, but now I just don't want to be bothered with it. Love my guy more than ever though. Just wondering if it is a hormone thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love my guy more than ever though. Just wondering if it is a hormone thing. I was just wondering the same thing lately. I think it must be hormone fluctuations. There is a physical aspect to it for me (TMI: dryness). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am now a forced vegetarian. Any meat or fish do not agree with me. However with the milk have you tried lactose free milk? That's what I'm using. I also use skim milk plus too. As for water I started drinking the little hugs juices, they have 2gm of sugar and only 10 calories so I won't dehydrate. I also eat greek yogurts ( dannon lite n fit) I still having issues with textured foods so I stick to soft foods also. It very frustrating, but I pray this will pass too. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess Sarah 47 Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) So I have some big news to share with you all. I just found out yesterday that I am pregnant!!! I thought this would never happen for me and my husband. I need to go talk to my surgeon as I am only shy of five months post-op. This def wasn't planned or even expected so Im a little anxious about how my body is going to handle this pregnancy on top of still healing from the bypass.

bloreorbust 286 Posted January 7, 2014 Has anyone found that they stall when they are exercising more? I seem to resume weight loss when I am less active. And I'm not doing any serious workouts either, just walking and swimming occassionally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I'm not doing any serious workouts either, just walking and swimming occassionally. I haven't but I've just started to get back into my walking and maybe dancing so I hope I don't stall especially since I'm losing weight really good right now. Good luck! 1 bloreorbust reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
