Dashofpixiedust8 1,469 Posted January 8, 2017 @@bitingcat Thank you! I was so worried I missed my honeymoon period because of all the complications. I had a lot of trouble losing while on the TPN infusions because they were infusing 1200 calories each night while I couldn't eat. Then when I was finally able to eat a little (300-500 calories) a day I started to gain weight because they were giving me the 1200 on top of that. I was in and out of the hospital with blood infections and extreme nausea and pain. I also had (and still have) pretty bad anemia. The weight wasn't coming off like I thought it would. It was VERY frustrating. Thankfully I am feeling 100% better and am able to work out and eat all my calories on my own. Everyone loses at a different pace, when you have injuries and illnesses it just further complicates things. You can do it!

Little Green 583 Posted January 9, 2017 Thank you so much for sharing! As someone learning about surgery I really need to hear about success stories like yours. (Women who start the process at over 350 lbs can be hard to find.) Thanks for sharing your progress and positivity! Your pictures are lovely, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
