JamieLogical 8,723 Posted May 8, 2015 Welcome! I think that in order to add a photo and profile info, you need to use the desktop version of the website on a real computer. I don't think you can do it through the app. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gowalking 10,790 Posted May 8, 2015 Welcome! What a young grandma you are. Just wait till you are also the healthiest on the playground. My second grandchild was born two weeks ago and I'm so excited to be able to keep up with him in a way I could not when my granddaughter was a toddler. I'm in New York City by the way.

jsleeve 1 Posted May 9, 2015 Hi I'm Sara 39 years old, from Philly PA. I was sleeved on April 23rd and these have been the hardest two weeks of my life lol still in pain and not getting in all my fluids yet, tried so many different Proteins but can't keep any down smh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zachnchrissy 9 Posted May 9, 2015 I haven't lost ANY weight since the of my surgery. Hello Sarah. I can't get in all my fluids either....I'm averaging about 40 to 50 ounces a day. I quit keeping count really. As far as pain, the only pain I have is in my chest when the food passes through. Don't know why or what it is. Have you lost any weight?

Rev Del 0 Posted May 9, 2015 @Zachnchrissy@jsleeve when I first was post op....I shocked at how little I could eat or drink....but I think the stomach has some swelling just from the procedure that will go away as your stomach heals....but today I feel fine and can handle a bit more volume...I know this isnt MAGIC....but What should we be expecting as far as weight loss....and are we driving ourselves nuts weighing everyday...(NOT THAT I WILL STOP) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
